First thing in the morning we made our way down to breakfast. my GOSH can the french do breakfast! aside from the ordinary croissantsand preserves i kid you not there was CHEESE OCLOCK!! They had cold meets and tomoto and yes even BRIE!!! Amazing. On top of this there were two bowls FULL of melted chocolate. I couldnt even really find a use for it! Other than morning fondue?!
After stuffing ourselves with morning treats we got ready to head in for another day. Seeing at it was the weekend, things were very busy! The lines to rides were at least over 50 minutes and the crowds of people were just insane! But we braved the lines and went on the best roller coasters. I have definitely conquered my fear and have learnt to embrace whatever comes. They are pretty sneaky here and tend to hide all the rides in buildings, or mountains, or space stations so that you actually CANT freak out because you dont even know whats going to happen! Which im really glad about.
The one ride you could well see though was located in the toy story village and had Courtney shaking in her Woody boots! This ride was a bit like the boats one in adventure world but STEEPER. You were piled into the remote control car and it swung back and forth getting higher and higher!!! Courtney was extremely freaked! Understandably...
As most of the lines took so long our day went really fast! We decided to sit down and relax with one of the shows. There was a Moto Cars Stunt Spactacular that we thought we would check out. We were escorted around the back of this building to be seated in a giant stand facing what looked like the set of a movie. It started off with a guy doing motorbike stunts to get us started! Then followed with a cool car chase!!! There were 3 people who would stop after each section and explain how they would do the car chase. One cool thing was that they actually had a car that looked like it was driving in reverse but really the internal section had been put facing forward so really the driver was actually just driving forward!
The three 'hosts' were pretty cool but they did this weird thing where they would talk to each other one in french and one in english. So we would get like one side of the conversation and kind of just make presemptions about the conversation they were having!
Probably the coolest thing EVER that happened was in one scene at the end one guy on a motorbike was heading towards a man shooting at him. Then a part of the ground caught on fire and he slid through it and caught on fire!!!!!!!! In a fire suit!!!!! it was sooooo cool! Ive never seen a fire man in person and it was so cool to see this guy on fire! Amazing. They then went through the suits he was wearing and how they made it work.
Then it was time for the finale. Another car chase and at the end a car came crashing from the top of a building and then there was fire coming from the water and a big explosion at the top of a ramp!!! WOW!!! What a show. But actually it was really amazing to see if first hand. Courtney and I were really glad we decided to see it.
We then headed back to our hotel and decided to go for a dip in our heated pool. And now...the moment you've been waiting for... SOME BOY NEWS!!! Needless to say picking up a man at Disneylandis extremely risky. The chances that there will be something weirdly wrong with them is extremely high. As me and Courtney went to check out the pool, we passed the fitness room. And lo and behold there was a young male working out! WHAT?! A this point i contemplated going and getting my gym gear on but thought the lack on any sort of physical excercise in the past few years would easily be seen... So we got our bathers on and made our way to the heated pool. FILLED with little kids in floaties. Again, not the best place to be scouting for men. Then in walks hot tanned gym man!!! It was destiny. Haha Courtney and I pretended not to eye off his muscles as he completed a few laps of butterfly. NOT the usual freestyle! BUTTERFLY. Best for the back muscle perve haha. Eventually we got talking- turns our he was a national swimmer for Jordan and also did gymnastic just to help with his muscles. WHAT?! He was here with his parents and 16 year old cousin. He was 19, old enough to meet us at the bar later for a drink. As we left we made plans to meet up later. When we returned to our hotel room to shower after the pool sesh our first mistake was then putting our pjs on... and as you can presume we FELL ASLEEP!
Our third day we were rained out but proceeded to head in to disney village to at least access some internet and to check out any movies. Unfortunately ALL the movies were in french with NO subtitles. So we had a bit of a walk around in the rain and headin back to our hotel. We purchased some internet for our hotel room and have been cooped up until today when HOPEFULLY our last day wont be rained out and we can meet ALL the disney characters.
Geeeet Excited!!!
