What a day

Some final thoughts about Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

My afternoon was great. Once I rolled myself out of the restaurant. I found somewhere to sit and did a bit of people watching. There was no way I was going on another ride with a full stomach.

I watched a show instead. Mickey et le Magicien. It was amazing. Done in two languages. Three if you count French sign language. Four if you count the African language used in the Lion King parts.

I absolutely loved it. It was totally comprehensible but even better for a bilingual. I especially loved the sign language interpreter as he was really part of the show.

My one issue - I left my sun glasses inside! I’m such an idiot! But the Disney people worked their magic, had me point out on a map where I was sitting and went and found them for me! I know they weren’t expensive but I was rather over the top with my thanks - they all thought it was pretty cool having sunglasses that can fit over the top of regular glasses too.

After that I wandered around a little. And rode the Ratatouille ride again, and again…. and again. The single rider line is fantastic as I could practically just walk straight on every time while the regular queue had a wait time of about 20 minutes. I loved that ride so much I did it six times altogether. 😁

As for my overall thoughts on the park… It was nice, but not like the US version. A lot of it was under renovation. To me, the show and Ratatouille were the best bits. I have much higher hopes for the actual Disneyland Park on Sunday.Læs mere
