but!
I decided, not to post that and amended them to ... continue below:
as you know, last year I went to Japan and one of the places I visit was Tokyo Disneyland.
I only recently found out that Disneyland is the happiest place on earth.
I don't know about that.
Have you been to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studio Japan? *smirk*
But to be very honest, I was very happy.

not even inside Disneyland the theme park yet. #whyamilikethis
Funny Story No. 1
After we purchased our tickets at the counter, we have to pass another gate, where the workers did a brief check inside your bag.
When it was my turn, this pakcik (really, he was an old man) took a quick glance inside my bag and said, "merci beaucoup" to which I automatically replied "merci" and got myself confused. Am I not in Japan? I'm pretty sure the uncle is Japanese too.
Funny Story No. 2
Me being obsess about getting Mr. Potatohead Popcorn Bucket.
I literally circled the ENTIRE Disneyland, stopping at every Popcorn Cart, looking for this MUST-HAVE popcorn bucket.
until at the end, I stopped at on popcorn cart and asked the worker "where *points at Dumbo popcorn bucket on their cart* Mr Potatohead?"
the lady said, "do you have map?"
with termendous relief I said, "Yes!"
and she told me go to the World Bazaar's Confectionery Store.
I went after saying 'thank you' in Japanese. coz I know how to say thank you in Japanese *lol*
Can you imagine how much time I could have saved if I asked in the first place??
When I get to the store, I was still lost. No Mr. Potatohead in sight. but just as I was close to giving up and settled with buying a small Mrs. Potatohead figurine, I once again plug up the courage to ask the lady for the Mr. Potatohead Popcorn Bucket.
I don't know what happaned in between or what she said that made me go crazy.
She said they have the Mr. Potatohead Popcorn Bucket and she left me qeueing for the cashier while she left for a back room, probably retrieving soon-to-be-mine popcorn bucket.
Again, I don't remember what happened, all I remember was being too excited and paid my item before running back to where I left si Bazilah to looked for the bucket. (yes, I left her at Tomorrowland to rest).
the highlight of my Disney adventure!
We went home soon after that coz we were both very tired.
I was so amused by this. "Lost Children"
