Pins, hats, Disney dollars and a whistle that emits the sound of a train are just some of the impressive Disney memorabilia that superfan Kaitey Wong has collected over the years. So it was no surprise when she began working for Disney – a global brand which, for her, symbolises the idea that “no dream is too big, nothing is impossible” – as an events planner at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort.
Although she may have secured her dream job, her magical Disney experiences have not stopped there. Recently, Wong was treated to a sneak peek of two of the resort’s newest additions.
They are the “Dream Makers” statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse seated on a bench, now located in front of the Cinderella Carousel, against the picturesque backdrop of the Castle of Magical Dreams, and the highly anticipated World of Frozen – the world’s first and largest themed land based on the hit Frozen film franchise.
World of Frozen, which officially opens to the public on November 20, will transport visitors to the cinematic land of Arendelle – home to the royal sisters Anna and Elsa – where they can enjoy fun-filled rides such as Frozen Ever After and Wandering Oaken’s Sliding Sleighs, and the interactive show Playhouse in the Woods.
