At 7:15, Stitch rang us to tell us it was time to wake up. We immediately knew the magic surrounded us.
We were still tired from the trip, but we were so excited, there was no way we would go back to sleep.
We took a bus to MK and arrived at 8:55 am, just before the Good Morning. We went through the gate and saw Chip and Dale, our favorites, waving at us. :cool:
We've been about a thousand times to Disneyland Paris, and were curious to see the differences with MK.
It's a strange impression : everything globally the same, but there are some subtle differences, except for tomorrowland that is completely different.
What we did :
Pirates of the carribean : I do not like this attraction in France, and did not find it better in MK, except for the face of barbarossa which is great.
Jungle Cruise : we just loved it. The CM was absolutely hilarious ! He single handedly made this ride worthwhile.
Big Thunder Mountain : It's much better than the french version. The theming is great, the sceneries are beautiful. Liked it.
Splash Mountain : boy was this wet ! "You may get wet", they say ! You will, more like it. We loved it. The dark ride part is fantastic, and the thrill part is not that thrilling, but very fun.
Monster Comedy Warehouse : This was great. The audience was rolling on the floor laughing. This was an excellent surprise, as I had read some very negative reviews here. It is not as good as turtle talk with crush, but it is very good.
Stitch's great escape : not worth the time. But I think this is the kind of attractions you have to do at least once. It was fun, but not worth coming back to. Parents beware, all the kids began crying, shouting, and had to go out before the ride ended.
We also saw a parade on main street and The YoaMD show near the castle. Then we went back to the hotel in order to rest and get prepared to go to California Grill for Dinner.:thumbsup:
The Dinner was fantastic food was good (not great), and we got to see Wishes from the top of the roof. Our table was decorated for my birthday (although it was not yet my birthday, but hey, I already had my "Happy Birthday" badge.), although I had not asked for anything special.
This was a wonderful evening, as our waitress made a point to speak with us, and offered great service (for which she was tipped extra even though we were on the dining plan).
We came back to the hotel to realize mousekeeping had worked some magic : animals everywhere in the bathroom, which we had not seen in the afternoon.:mickey:
This was the end of an exciting second day... And our last in POP, as we would hop to AKL the day after...
