Disney day 1. Continued.

I had to break my blog up a bit because my blog app that I m using to write it up kept hanging midway through typing or when I was saving as I think my draft was just too long. So instead I m breaking it up a bit to test that theory.

Next on, was a delightful musical show with a robotronic Stitch to a Hawaiian theme filled with tropical singing birds and flowers.




The sun was out in full force now and we walked onto the jungle cruise ride. Not too long a wait with this one, just a boat ride along an amazon-like area with animatronic jungle animals. Would have been extremely boring but for the hilarious boat captain we had. We didn't understand much of what he said but his exagerated exclamations and face pulling were enough to have us rolling with laughter.



Coming out of the cruise we encountered this sea of prams. There is even an attendant who goes about straightening th neatly into lines!



We ventured about and decided to get some finger food for lunch. So while the men headed to get us some food, the kids and I browsed one of the many carts filled with Disney merchandise which are scattered all about the place. This was a very cute hat that I struggled against buying.



Almost looks like Xander has been gobbled up by Stitch!
The guys returned with 8 turkey legs for lunch. Really huge and tasted like chicken ;)



It was then time for our fast pass at monsters Inc which turned out to be a really mild ride for kids to shoot a torchlight at monsters popping out during a narrated story of monsters Inc. We really did needed English instructions...we did not get what the whole ride was but at least the kids enjoyed it.



Next we stopped at Microadventures. A 3D show featuring casts from the movie "Honey, I shrunk the kids". Since it was originally an American production that had been dubbed with Japanese, we were able to get headphones to listen to the English version.

Coming out of that, the kids wanted to play with these racing cars. Even though the cars sat on a track that did not allow it to venture off course much, and you can only press on the gas pedal to accelerate to about 10km/h, the kids had plenty of fun.




It was starting to drizzle now as we made our way to Toon Town to sit on Roger Rabbit's ride. A bit of a queue but at least for most of it, we were out of the rain.



After the ride, the kids got themselves into a spot of trouble but managed to break out of jail and make a run for it!
