DISNEYLAND PART DEUX!

>> Sunday, December 21, 2008

After a fantastically fun-filled morning we stopped in at La Chalet au Marionette for what else, A MICKEY BURGER!

mmmm, so good!


After feeling refreshed, we set our sites on Fantasyland where we, of course, made a stop at the Tea-cups! (Sidenote, it's a lot harder to spin that thing when you don't have your dad helping you and it turns out I was spinning it the wrong way!)

BONUS VIDEO: Twirling on the Tea Cups

After twirling around in the tea cups we stopped in at It's a Small World. The line was horrendously long, which was OK with me because I have been having nightmares about that ride since I went on it when I was 10! Thankfully we skipped that one and headed over to Discoveryland! It was here that we ran into another example of the French love for Humanoid Animals!

Wow, really! He's seems quite pensive!

Discoveryland was definitely one of our favorites! We rode the Oribitron, and a Star Wars simulator called Star Tours. I also over came my fear of laser tag (Aaron, your hockey team is completely to blame!), when we went on the Buzz Lightyear Lazer blast complete with a bilingual Buzz!

But, it was here where Natalie and I "discovered" the reason why we love Disneyland! SPACE MOUNTAIN! When I visited Disneyland in my younger days this ride was broken so it was a surprise to the both of us. It's funny because we weren't sure what to expect and they don't really prepare you for what your in for. They were telling us something about lunettes (glasses), so we were a bit confused. But luckily on Indiana Jones they had done the same thing and we had to quickly prepare ourselves to go on a crazy upside down ride! Space Mountain was the same only add: Darkness, Space, Asteroids, a corkscrew, and ridiculous amounts of laughter and screaming! I can't tell you how funny our faces were in the picture they tooks of us! We came out of there with tears streaming down and sore stomach muscles from laughing so much! Even Nat overcame her fear of rollercoasters and had an amazing time! Space Mountain is a definite must if you're ever at Disney, it's craziness! The good kind!

After we recovered from our intergalatic travel, we checked out the shops on Mainstreet and found ourselves some pretty stellar Disney stuff that I'm sure you will get to see us with in the very near future!

The castle at the other end of Main Street!

After perusing the shops for a while, we had a chance to see the Candlebration ceremony which is a fancy word for "we are going to have an amazing light show and light up Sleeping Beauties castle with millions of lights!" Here's the results:

We also caught the Fantallusion Light Parade but I haven't had a chance to put the video together yet so there is still more Disney magic to come!
