Disneyland Day 6 and 7

The smell of buttered popcorn was enticing so we had it for breakfast.

Disneyland – Day 5

There’s no early entry on Wednesday, so we used that day to hit Fantasyland first thing in the morning at 9 AM. I wanted pictures with the castle because it was Sleeping Beauty day. ^_^ That and the fact that getting to the castle early meant less people in our pictures. ^^;

Disneyland – Day 4

The day started off super early at Storyteller’s Cafe, in the Grand Californian Hotel. We ate at the breakfast buffet. It was kind of expensive, but I think it’s worth it for the food. Storytellers is a character dining restaurant, so there were a bunch of characters milling around, but most are uncommon characters.

7 AM, so early ^^;;. There was no line but there were lots of them critters around xD.

You can see some of what we ate in the following pictures

Disneyland – Day 3

The park opened at 9 AM today. We found ourselves at Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (BTMRR) first thing in the morning. The line must’ve been short if we got in it or there must’ve been no fastpasses available that day.

Another duck, this one playing around in the waters of BTMRR.

Ducks are cute ^^.

Disneyland 2009 – Day 1

Our Disneyland trip doesn’t start at Disneyland, because I’m a deluxe annual passholder, which means I’m blacked out for certain dates in the year. In May, I can’t go into the park on Saturdays without buying a black out pass, which I didn’t intend to do, so we decided to drive around LA to shop and eat.

O what lovely eyes you have

Ok, I know there are a lot of strange things in Japan and this is one of the stranger one’s in my opinion.   Here’s what you do, you buy the dvd with a picture of a cute girl on the cover and you learn there are 49 more of these girls that you can stare at, you plop the dvd into your dvd player and commence the show, then what you get is this…

I don’t know about you but I would feel ripped off if I bought this dvd lol.  Apparently it’s a dvd called Miterudake with 50 different females that stare at you, they range from the young to the old and of different ethnicity.  Supposedly it’s to make you “relaxed” in case you ever meet a female, that’s like every other person you pass on the street lol.  So you will feel more confident when you talk to a female and won’t break down, physically and/or mentally :P

It sounds like a good concept, especially if you have a hard time talking to a female in real life, like someone you like or surround you in general like at class or work.  Originally found through Japan Probe.Here are more for you to “stare at” :P .

Though I believe if the dvd had something like what they have at Disneyland it would be much better xD. Check it out:

Look closely at the picture and you will know why I made it the way it is ;p.

Disneyland was pretty fun, for I was able to hang out with my girlfriend the whole time ^^. We were able to go on practically all the rides that were up in both Disneyland and California Adventure Park (part of Disneyland). Some of the rides like Screamin’ (best at night ^^), Grizzly River Run (good during the day when you can dry off after the ride), Indiana Jones Adventure (anytime), and Space Mountain (anytime) were so much fun that we went on each ride at least six times xD. We were able to get fast passes to each so we stood in line for each ride between 10-30 minutes (usually in between), compared to the usual wait time of 30 minutes to an hour (2 hours for Grizzly O_O). The food was good, but expensive, it is Disneyland after all xD. The shows were pretty good, I liked Aladdin, the fireworks show, and Fantasmic.

The Aladdin show is pretty good, probably because of Genie lol. Genie updates his jokes to whatever is current in the world, he did a bunch of Britney Spears jokes when my girlfriend visited Disneyland the year before and did stuff like Mac vs. PC this time around. The effects are real nice, try to sit in the second level of the show for the best overall seats and first floor for the closer seating.

The Fireworks show is good, you just need to get a good seat for it lol. Best to get a good spot 2 hours before the show :P .

Fantasmic is another good show and the seating is much easier to get ;P, at least one hour before for a good spot but you can come near the shows start and still find a good seat like we did ^^, if you’re lucky that is ;P.

Disney is a fun place to go, for its admission price it better be lol. I liked shows like the Muppet’s that I grew up with.

Storybook Land had little miniatures of houses, castles, towns, and more from different Disney stories. Being a figure guy, I liked the attention to detail present in all the sets.

Disney 08

Other detailed pieces of work were everywhere in Disneyland, like a mosaic wall and flowers found all over the park (they even made a book on the plants in Disneyland xD).

There were lots of vintage Disney stuff like a mini show room that showed the classics, artwork, and even figures.

Of course there were lots of updated works from different artists all around from paintings to clear blocks with laser imprinted artwork in it. Did you know Disneyland offers Disney Weddings as well? We saw dresses and sample pieces of a Disney wedding in a display window.

Most of the more thrilling rides at Disneyland like Space Mountain and Screamin’ at California Adventure Park take pictures of you at the end of the ride, at that point you need to make a funny pose xD. We coordinated poses we wanted to do, about half of what we did came out good lol.

Disney 08

Of course there are lots of chances to take pictures with just the two of us around the park.

Here’s the big finisher, the food at Disneyland xD. You can find all types food while you’re there, from many parts of the world like Italy and the US. There are lots of different flavors but they were delicious. Just looking at them now makes me drool xD.
