On day 3, a girl and a guy who looks like billieboo rode on the metro! (again)
BILLIEBOO! (he's gone now to catheaven) sobssssssss
girl and lansi bf lol
AND GUESS WHERE WE WENT! hehehehehehhee
WALT DISNEY STUDIOS YAHOOOOOO
ok so walt disney studios isn't disneyland, it's a different area which matt and i went first because we thought we'd check out disneyland a little later at 5pm when the parade was scheduled to be on. (we woke up at like 12 oops my bad because i got a bad dream and was sulky)
spot me lol. this place was just filled with eateries
Stitch live! heh. ok so this was the only show my friends and i didn't manage to go for in Hong Kong Disneyland in 2006 so i decided to take a pic of it, not that i managed to go this timeeee
picture of dear with that... thing
mary poppins umbrella and artificial rain :)))))
we went for our first ride/show on this armageddon thingie. this was the introduction. after that we went into this room with a huge vault in the middle and we pretended we were in the space ship and there was some meteor (or something) attacking us and the space ship got all noisy and scary and weird parts starting moving and dropping and it ended with a huge fire blast in the vault LOL
which was really HOT and freaky.
then we went for this car show inspired by Lightning McQueen from Cars. it's basically stunts that you see on disney movies with real drivers doing them!
pretty cool stunts like the car reversing backwards up a slope and other (fake) gunshooting actions. and it ended with this fire blast once again near the waters. the fire was bigger but i wasn't in time for the shot.
just a video or two for you to check out some stunts.
stupid flickr doesn't allow me to upload more than 2 videos per month so i guess i can't show you guys more videos but i might upload it next month or something lol. that guy was burnt on purpose lol i was a lil worried about him for a while there lol
then we went for the slinky dog ride YAAAAY for kids because i am scared shitless of rollercoasters. the most i've been on are the rollercoasters in sunway lagoon and everyone knows those are for no0bies. no, i've never been to genting/jerudong/blackpool/alton towers yada yada
girl with horrendous hair colour and guy with huge megawatt smile :)
this ride was super fun can! i loved it and tbh it was kinda scary for me too AHAHAHA it had the escalating motion and your stomach feels like its about to fly out your tummy. (but i'm sure all ye frequent rollercoasterettes are immune to this feeling). i even hate the ones i feel on the plane fyi , yes that's how lousy i am
and we saw this scary pirate ship concept rollercoaster.... which i don't intend to ride on.. ever.. due to the absence of balls. not that people with balls are allowed to ride on things LOL
buzz light year!
ditto
cars!
then we went for this animagique show!!! it was nice. mickey and donald duck and lots of other cartoon animations :)
my camera trick! (in truth this was taken by accident)
mickey :)
omg it's STITCH! hmm actually i like lilo better stitch is ugly. but i shook his hand :)
hollywood tower ride behind! super scary lift drops
i think this was cinderella's stuff?
this was when we first entered DISNEYLAND! i've been to paris disneyland as a child so it was nice to be here again to recollect the memories (not that i remember any) except having mickey ears :) i wanted to buy those but they only had ugly minnie ones :(
gorgeous view of the disneyland hotel
CUTE TREE :)
Sleeping Beauty castle!!!!!!

i love this set-up! the book and all :)
woody and little bo peep!
winnie the pooh and piglet !
ok at this time there was like a sorta intermission when winnie and gang lol called lil kids up front to dance with them. i was convinced it was a malfunction in the system/song hence the need of delay but matt insisted that it was on purpose zzz
honeybees
my fav! peter pan! stupid captain hook! lol. i was so scared of him that i kinda yelped when i saw him and GUESS WHAT! he came TOWARDS ME and pushed my sunglasses of my head and onto my face to cover my eyes ahahahaha
stupid captain hook. i was really scared ok and he just had to come bug me of ALL PPL and i am not even a kid. but he wasn't as scary another pirate who had that perverted look in his eyes lol no pics of him sorry
grand pirate ship!
peter pan has been my favourite disney movie since i was a child :)
i am actually not sure who they are. can anyone tell me?
there were these villains too! which was pretty cool because there were no villains in the hong kong disneyland parade!
they moved really sneakily. and they're all really smart because they know how to spot cameras and look into them. i don't really know which villains they are though hmmm
villain float!! hades from hercules, and i think that's the jafar snake from aladdin, but i don't know where the gargoyle is from, was there an evil gargoyle from hunchback of notre dame?
hades
Scar from the lion king
ursula!!!!!
i think those dancers were supposed to be her eels!
lion king's bull/deer? and lion king's err flowers?
mufasa! i'm convinced every guy's favourite disney movie is THE LION KING! i am SURE of it. prove me wrong!
pumba's backside ahaha
baloo bear and cast from jungle book!
probably some cast from jungle book? omg i don't know! i watched it as a kid, i don't remember :(
absolutely LOVED these dancers
disney princess number1!!!! ARIEL!
JASMINE and aladdin!
princess and the frog!
snow white!!
sleeping beauty's perfect posture and beautiful belle from beauty and the beast!
i am in love with the photos from disney parade! *GIDDY*
after the parade was done, we went to explore!
first we went to the it's a small world ride :)
i vaguely remember this being my favourite ride of all time when i was little so matt allowed me to check out fantasy land first!! disneyland was divided into several kingdoms, fantasyland, discoveryland, adventureland, frontierland and main street USA.
ok so i should probably say right here right now that we didn't manage to cover the entire disneyland in a day! baby said we should've totally skipped the walt disney studios but we couldn't have known paris disneyland was so hugeeeee
back to the it's a small world ride *GIDDY*
i took like a gazillion photos of this ride but you'll have to excuse me, childhood memories :)
asians!
indians!
thais!
africans!
polly pocket mermaid!
hawaiians! who look like lilo! i love lilo
just because rah is one of my nicknames
gorgeous! the song was pretty repetitive but it was magical inside. we rode in a boat and it was all about how the world is so small and we're made up of different races and stuff. love it!!!!
after we were done with the ride, we took random pics of like this pretty lawn!!!!
and dumbo rides which i wanted to go on but dear said no because it was a waste of time boohoohoo nvmlah i agree lah because i've been on so many of those kind of cutesy rides already lol
the planner of all my trips MWAKS he's the best
sarah chia jane
peter pan ride!!! loved this ride because i love peter pan! we sat on that flying thingie and we flew!
blur picture of wendy. you must excuse these lame photos, i must post them because i love peter pan
peter and the ship! the ride was great! i think it was my favourite ride :) it was kinda the entire story inside and when we reached the place of the skull, the flying thing we were riding on got rocky and freaky lol
we also went on a snow white ride but that was kinda lame because it was all about the stupid wicked witch and she kept laughing her evil laugh. *stammer* always had a fear of her, i shut my eyes lol
ok so we were kinda running outta time so we decided to ride one last scary ride (for dear's sake) and i told him i'd do the space mountain because i've done it before in hongkong and it was bearable but as it turned out this was SPACE MOUNTAIN MISSION 2 and i didn't have the guts for it because it looked pretty darn scary
baby was kinda sad so to matt's friends if you are reading this, please bring him on that ride next time if you ever go with him to paris disneyland
i made it up to him by riding on another ride, star wars something something. pretty fun and bearable
just a picture of a pretty ride
ok so that was all we managed to cover in disneyland! we didn't manage to see everything because ride queues took up a lot of time. disneyland is meant to be explored for like 2-3 days anyway so we couldn't have it all
we then had buffet at disneyland because we were so darn tired! food was quite yummy but quite salty too. the chicken wings are delicious. this plate doesn't do the food justice la lol
by the time we got out it was dark and we took pictures with the castle (though they aren't very nice pictures)
the pretty hotel
different lighting, just for the sake of showing you how the atmosphere was really like at the time
dear looks like he's pushing the castle doors open lol
mr first husband LOL, the butler LOL
beautiful mickey tower clock
and lastly, disney village, a happening arena filled with eateries
i got myself this beauty from disneyland! i love tinker bell better than any other disney princess
it even comes with a spoon!
Overall, we didn't manage to explore the entire disneyland. but matt and i were both satisfied with the time we had there. disneyland is always fun!
if you guys wanna go i suggest you finish the entire disneyland before going into walt disney studios :D unless you plan to stay for a couple of days. queues are a bitch, so plan your time wisely, and pick and choose the rides you are only interested in. there are time slots given in a sheet so you can check them off and make a plan.
matt and i were exhausted after that. walking around a lot really drains your energy! we then had to ride the metro back to our hotel and that easily took 2 hours. disneyland is way out of paris so you can expect to ride back late.
ok there is a final entry of paris after this, stay tuned!
