Took a chance and played American tourist today...rocked a skirt and flip flops without a pair of socks or pantyhose. After a week and a half of shoe wearing I needed a break!! Successful until it started to get breezey off the bay and then cold...then it was home for jeans, long sleeved shirt, a jacket and sneakers.
This morning's trip to Disney Sea included some of the longest but most organized lines I have ever seen! Amazing how polite people are when the parks haven't even opened yet!
Unless you have riden Tower of Terror with 18 Japanese school girls then it no longer counts...because we did! The entire storyline is based off of a shrine/idol that was giving to this amazing explorer and his disappearance. The moment the doors shut the shrieking began and didn't stop one bit...this ride is much milder than the two in the states but that didn't matter to this group!
Managed to take a ride on the boats today from one side of the park to the front :) I definitely noticed the horn signals are the same as WDW! Besides that one little thing I got to play tourist today and use the map and times guide! This also means we weren't as nearly efficient as I would have liked to have been.
This park completely immerses you into the lands and areas, absolutely larger than life but beautiful!! We got to utilize subtitle experiences to read a few performanaces in English....makes a world of difference when you know what is going on and not just watching because that's fun too. The devices are handheld, electronic and awesome. For the Little Mermaid it was in the shape of a clam and in Alladin it was a fancy "gold" square. I also love how the Cast will remind you when you need to take your extended mouse ears off. Again, such politeness for those around you!
This evening we had our first running experience, there was no lottery this morning for the purchasing of the two bears. Mom and I got there just as they were finishing seating! This show had big band era music, dancers and a few characters, including the popular Marie (the cat). No translation needed! Especially when Mickey was playing the drums and then tap dancing!
Sandwich combinations for restaurants targetting Guests with "american" sandwiches sure do have a strange combination habit. Tonight I had a bagel with shrimp, smoked salmon, avacado sauce with cheese. The cheese threw me off quite a bit though!
Another exciting and draining day has been completed! Just one more day in the parks...vacation is coming to an end sadly.
