Journey Along My Future
Double Disneyland Days
Friday, September 01, 2006


Early 9am, Dad, Mum, Ivy and I rushed in after it opened and took some photos at the Town Square. Sleeping Beauty CastleMain Street USA
Trying to take the Excalibur


Our first stop was in Frontierland - we met Chip and Dale, went on Mark Twain ship cruise and Phantom Manor. To our dismay,
Big Thunder Mountain ride was closed! It is one of the best rides we’ve rode on during our last visit.

We proceeded to Adventureland next, and the first thing we wanted to do is goon Indiana Jones amd the Temple of Peril. In 1999, when we went to Disneyland USA, we went on the Indiana Jones and it was FUN FUN FUN!! So we were really looking forward to this one. Except that, when we arrived there, the ride seemed different. First, it was an outdoor rollercoaster. Whereas the one in LA was an indoor stimulating ride. Nevertheless, Dad, Ivy and I went up and it was …. Yes, very thrilling but FRIGHTENING too! It took all my energy away and I ended up with a minor backache. To think I was brave – sheesh… haha! I became chickened out timid whenever a suggestion of going onto a “Big Thrill” categorised ride (suggested by Ivy). Yea, she loved it so much. I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy it, but it was too much of a scare so early that morning haha!Indiana Jones and the temple of Peril -I didnt take a photo so I searched for this on Google

We continued on to Fantasyland – rode on the Blanche-Neige et les Sept Nains ride (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs), Le Carrousel de Lancelot (Merry-Go-Round), Les Voyages de Pinocchio (Pinocchio ride), Alice’s Curious Labyrinth (a maze for Alice in Wonderland), Dumbo the Flying Elephant (erm, sit in Dumbo~), Mad Hatter’s Tea Cups (spin and whirl in the giant tea cups, came out with a headache)…

Venturing to the last “land” we went to Discoveryland. I have to say… this land is the best Land. We went on Buzz Lightyear Laser blast (the queue took Ivy and I 40 minutes and the ride’s only.. 5-10 minutes??! Man, our legs were hurting so bad), Honey, I Shrunk the Audience (we watched the 3D show), Orbitron (a flying machine) and Videopolis – where we watched The Legend of the Lion King – live performance while eating lunch. My favourite ride of all is Autopia - Get behind the wheel of a futuristic car from the '50s. We got to drive the car around a track and I felt in control, independent in controlling the car! Hehe... it was very fun! the only thing was that it was raining~long queue for Laser BlastLaser BlastOrbitron

After that, we walked around and rode Peter Pan’s Flight at Fantasyland, which we missed earlier due to a very very long queue.

Hmm.... I'm gonna skip now... to Wednesday, because the rest of Monday was just plain boring - rides, more rides and LONG queues.


Wednesday - Early in the morning, we raced to go on Laser Blast as we knew that the queue line would be really long! Luckily, we were one of the first ones there, and we even had a Fastpass and get to go again. (By the way, when I say 'we' I meant Ivy and I) .. we wanted to go to Autopia but it wasn't open yet. So instead, we went on Orbitron and then to Main Street USA to meet the Disney Characters.the queue to see Mickey took us an hour! shocking isn't it?


Around 12pm, we went to the Pirates of the Carribean ride, which we missed on Monday. It was also one of the best rides I've been on. After that, we went to the Walt Disney Studio Park next to Disneyland Park.

First, we went on the Studo Tram Tour. It took us around to see behind the magic of movie making. We saw first-hand explosions and flooding, earthquakes, etc... as in how they produce it in movies.

Following that, Dad went to Val d'Europe to buy takeaway dinnerwhile Mum, Ivy and I went to "Rock 'n' Rollercoaster. Now, this is categorised as a 'Big Thrill' ride. (what is it that I said earlier?.... ) Ivy wanted to go on it so much, and yes, I admit, I was quite nervous to go on it. However, we joined the queue while Mum waited outside and when it was nearly our turn, we were horrified to see, that it was VERY fast. People were even screaming during the take-off. It involved a 360deg loop and it was Top-Speed. In the end, we wigged out and were shown to the Sortie door. Haha... it was funny!!Outside Rock 'n' Rollercoaster ride, I pretended to be the Ice Queen from Narnia

We also went to Armageddon Special effects - Step into an avalanche of special effects from the mega-thriller Armageddon (the movie). Next, Ivy and I went to the Walt Disney Television Studios and we stepped behind the scenes amd took lots of photos hehe...
At 3.45pm, we went to watch Moteurs ... Action! Stunt Show Spectacular - where we watched unforgettable performance of incredible car and motorcycle stunts! Too bad when I took the videos, I missed out on the climax of the show, like explosions and funny little stunts.



We continued on to Cyberspace Mountain where we designed our own virtual rollercoaster and then hopped in for the ride. Our thrill-o-meter was 1 out of 5... ehhem, hehe~ maybe we should have remade it when the person asked "It's too slow. Would you like to change it?" To back it up, Ivy and I didn't even scream through the whole ride.

Time really flies when we are having a good time, and then it was 6pm - closing time for Walt Disney Studios. Ivy and I returned to Disneyland Park whereas Mum went back to hotel. We rushed to Autopia with "screaming, painful" feet (tired feet actually) but to our disappointment - it was closed (it opens at 10.30am and closes at 6.30pm). :(

So we went to the Pirates of the Carribean again, as there were nothing else worth going on again. Then, it was back to the hotel. Wow, it was a wonderful adventure - yet very very tiring. I think we spent a quarter of the day queueing up... *shake head* Oh well... Goodbye Disneyland!

Who's this?.... ♥

I love flying low.
I love interpretations.
I'm cunning and unpredictable, try me.
I reminisce till dawn,
I dream till dusk.
That's coz...
I'm me.
And always will be

S H E R P T S Y
MIMOSA.
there's nothing more to say
If you know me, you know me. If you don't, you don't
