And here is a dreamy reminder:\u00a0 any visitors wearing pyjamas could take a free pillow home!\u00a0 Lastly, we went to the Land of Surprises.\u00a0 As the name suggests, this place is full of unexpected things.\u00a0 You may get an extra box of juice for lunch or even get photbombed by a group of playful elves!\u00a0 My family was lucky enough to join a glow-in-the-dark party in a spacious indoor venue.\u00a0 We were each given some photoluminescent colour paint to splash each other as messily as we could.\u00a0 We had a blast inside the wide room filled up with energetic music.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Things I liked about the theme park<\/u><\/p>\n<p>Fantasy Island is an imaginary place filled with exciting wonders.\u00a0 Whether it is the folly Land of Happiness or the Land of Surprises for adventurous visitors, I was totally amazed by the creative ride designs and the detailed touches that added up the fantasy spirit.\u00a0 The whole fantasy journey was a fantastic and comfortable experience to me and my family.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>My least favourite attraction<\/u><\/p>\n<p>The fairytale remake for the drama show was a great disappointment to me.\u00a0 I expected a much more surprising change to the classical fairytale.\u00a0 But instead, it turned out that it was only an ordinary drama with a splash of colours and lights.\u00a0 Honestly, the \u2018Golden Mickey\u2019 is much better than this drama.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Our visit to Fantasy Island has become a memorable, enchanted memory of me and my family.\u00a0 I hope you would enjoy the visit as much as I did.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"4C (15-16) Pan Tiannan Bettin<em>You visited a newly opened amusement park, Fantasy Island, with your family last week.
