abracadabra!


like what i mentioned last night, we were in penang today for disney live! mickey's magic show, at penang international sports arena (pisa). click here to see the show times in kl. like i mentioned before too, the show started at 11 am sharp!

i found the map of pisa online (right pic) and printed it out immediately before i sign-off last night. sorry i forgot to save the web address for me to place a link here. guess what people. we were one of the few people to arrive there early.you know... its my style that i will make sure that i will be there early for events like that, especially when that was the first time i went there ;) anyhow i didn't use the printed map much as the arena is so easy to find. i knew that its further up after the equatorial hotel junction. then we saw a sign board to the arena only a few blocks away on the left.

the gate only opened at 10.15 am for the 11 am show. megat was the one whose so excited. also his cousin, didin whose also is shahriman's brother. as you could see this time i brought didin because i have already brought shahriman to the last disney's show we went.

although we seated in the first row, i didn't want to take the risk to take any pics at all. the security people this time were very strict. in fact i warned the kids of not to say anything if any of the security questioned me about it. so i lied to them when were at the entrance door to the premium category seats, for them to check our tickets *phew* i hate to loose my oly i tell you. its safely kept in my handbag where ever i go ;) i never leave home without it ever since i bought it! i saw three cases in front of my very own eyes, where almost all of them, the security placed the digital cameras in a plastic bag. they took down the digicam/video cam owners particulars. they (the camera owners) were advised to take their items at counter number four, located near the ticket counter outside, after the show ends.

kids were lucky that we seated in the front row. what when the illusionist brad ross, came to us about 30 mins before the show started. he placed a pair of pink rubber shoes in between didin and me. owh... how i wished that i could captured that moment in pics. it seems that the shoe was for one of his tricks then. we enjoyed the magic show so much. we didn't realize it until brad came back to us when he wanted to find a pair of shoe for the magic session of cinderella's shoe ;) he turned the shoe in to cinderella's glass shoe hehe...

over all, all-in-all i could described the show in one word as fantastic! all kinds of people would definitely enjoyed them. every thing was perfect! the performances, dances, props etc. the interaction with audience were of a first class standard. who doesn't love mickey & friends right?

regards to the premium tickets, i only paid about 30% less of the published rates. the best thing was to be one of the 'early birds'. i bought my tickets online last august. then pr worldwide, penang send the tickets to me via courier with no extra charge. fyi the prices are better here online. same goes to any other bookings i.e. hotels, theme parks etc. i even bought sunway tambun tickets online. thats where i realized that buying tickets online are better. hmm... some people teased me for buying the tickets for today's show too early. well thats the trick people... for us to get good prices too! correct me if i am wrong :)
