Then we asked for taking selfie with him but we said our heads would be so big if we take selfies, olu pushed us away with his head, meaning let his head to be big and ours to be small. After taking the selfies, he rubbed his chubby face sadly, grumbling why is his head so big🤭🤭 ((omg he’s so cute!!!!!

    Hi 👋 I’ve been to both Tokyo & HK Disney parks and I can say that they both are very different. Tokyo Disney is much bigger than HKD so it definitely has much more to offer in terms of attractions and theming but it’s always so crowded so you really have to plan when you go there to make the most out of your trip. On the other hand, HKD is the smallest disneyland so it’s much more contained and has lesser crowd and you can enjoy the rides more. I think the accessibility is one of the perks of HKD. You can definitely do HKD in a day! It’s also very close to Hong Kong airport. And if you can, you should go to Shanghai Disneyland too 😉 it’s a great and different experience as well. (I’m such a fan of Disney Parks 😅 and I’ve been to HKD, Tokyo, Shanghai, Paris & Anaheim. My next goal is Disney World)

That's what it's there for. 😊 Never eat off the tea tray display! How I gasp at you doing this and I'm not even all that but at least know the basics of etiquette dining! Lord have mercy if you're going to try something new please at least do a little homework on how to properly eat quality foods. Just saying... but I still love your vibe and your vlogs. ❤
