Day 17

Well THE day has arrived.. yes, it’s DISNEY DAY!!…..
Did I mention that Joe had said it was my birthday!! It’s not, but I got given a badge, a birthday welcome card and cake!
Up and off early to be there ready for it to open.. a long day ahead of us…

The park really is beautiful, although I still believe nobody can do Disney like the Americans, I really did enjoy the lack of over enthusiasm and in your face it had..
First ride was Space Mountain ( or something similar ) I openly admit that I REALLY wasn’t looking forward to it, I’m not a rides person, they scare me, but mostly they make me feel sick 🤢… I managed 2 goes on this with my stomach just about staying intact, but it was a close thing.. I was extremely relieved to move on to something else…

Stony Grilch mountain was next… scary, but much better.. think I’m much better when i can see, the dark is disorientating and I just had to concentrate on deep breathing..
We actually ended up doing that one four times by the end of the day and I almost enjoyed the last time..

We did have a fabulous day, did all of the rides and shows on Joe’s list with only one disappointing one in frozen.. my favourite was Ant man and the Wasp..
The only thing I refused to do was the Tea Cups.. 🤢

The firework / laser display at the end was pretty amazing, but you’d expect nothing less from Disney really..

After a visit to the main shop we popped into Disneyland hotel for a couple of cocktails.. as you do 🤪 then back to ours and room service goes very late dinner.
A very long, but fabulous day…Lue lisää
