Disney Lantern Fun-tasy

Another exciting place to come to..

I heard about this lantern festival from my classmate, Pristina. She went there with her family, not forgetting her adorable son, Deaqon. As soon as she told me about it I couldn't wait to come and see this so called "disney's magical lantern festival" myself.

Yesterday, Debby and I decided to go. As usual it's only the two of us but since we are the perfect combination, we still had lots and lots of fun.

The ticket and stamps.. See that hairy thing? Hahaha.. It's Debby's hand!!




We arrived at 7 pm, it's dark already and lights of the lanterns are all switched on. They created the lantern from colorful fabrics and filled them with gleaming small bulbs. The results were AMAZING. They're so beautiful, made me wanna touch them few times. But every time I reached my hand to touch the lantern, the heat caused by the bulbs shocked me. That's actually why they made some kind of fence from ropes so the visitors couldn't come too close to the lanterns.

When we first stepped into the festival area, we saw this huge welcoming lantern. Too bad I couldn't get the full image.

Cinderella!! The most famous fairy tale ever... Don't you think? By the way I couldn't find her anywhere, maybe she's busy making out with her prince charming behind those bushes, so I thought Debby and I could take her place that night.


So here we are, two beautiful princess. Just walked out of our chariot, gracefully.. Haha..

We met Snow White there as well. The Seven Dwarfs kept her occupied the whole time. So we thought we just took picts with her friends from the forest. To do that, we had to jump over the fence and pose nicely in squat position.

Debby took pictures with Disney's 3 most legendary cast, Mickey, Minnie and Donald.



***

The most romantic couple ever... They were on a date when we got there.


Unexpectedly they asked us to join them on a double date.

Since there were just the two of us, we couldn't take picts together. We wanted to ask other visitors to take our picts, but we were too worry that the person would steal my camera and run away with it. Two over-paranoid girls.. After convincing ourselves for a while, we asked the first person to help us took picts, and nothing awfull happened. Everything went well. But before we were brave enough to let strangers held my camera, we tried to take our picts ourselves.

First attemp...


Second attemp...


Hmm.. Can't see the backgroud well, it's all our faces.. But we still looked nice.. Hehe... pathetic posers...

It was so crowded there, so many kids running around and screaming. Lots of people gathered around the lantern and it was very difficult for us to get nice and "clean" image. Everybody wanted to take picts with famous lanterns like Chicken Little and friends. Hactic hactic !!


But we finally got the chance to pose with those kindergarten students of Oaks. This actually came from 2 different picts, mine and Debby's. My brother made it look like we both posed together. Thanks, Bro...

Giant lantern castle.. How long did it take them to build this?

Tired legs, oily face, sweating all over but I felt absolutely happy. From there we headed back to Kelapa Gading and met Albert for dinner at Ayam Goreng Keraton.
What a fun-tastic day!!
