Day 10, Part 3:
So we had just
left the Mark Twain Riverboat and next we headed to Adventureland for a visit
to the Enchanted Tiki Room:
When the Tiki
Birds show was finished we went to check out the Adventureland Bizarre. They
had a lot of different things here that weren’t Disney themed and we didn’t see
them in any other shops in the parks either:
Next I went to
explore Tarzan’s Tree-house:
Once I had
climbed out of the Tree-house I headed over towards Tomorrow land to do some
Vinylmation trading but the parade blocked my way so I took a few pictures of
the castle before heading back to my trip buddy:
I spotted this
cute Popcorn Machine on the way:
Once I got
back to my trip buddy we went to try claim a spot for Fantasmic. It was 6.30 at this stage and the show wasn’t on
until 9pm but we noticed a lot of people were putting blankets down to reserve
their space for Fantasmic and the area was already really crowded. It really
didn’t seem like a fair way of doing things as most people had the blankets
spread out and only one person sitting on it while the rest of the family went
to various rides. We found a spot between two blankets at the front and sat on
our bags there though. I had a few movies on the iPod so we watched those while
we were waiting. Eventually the show started it was pretty similar to Disney World’s
version except with Peter Pan and a pirate ship instead of things like
Pocahontas
The show was
good but where we were sitting wasn’t the best. Nobody stood up to watch it so
we ended up having to watch through railings. I think we would have been better
off somewhere further back where we could have stood up to see it. Anyway once
the show was over the CM’s literally hoarded us out of the place towards New Orleans Square
and it was like sardines in a tin it was so crowded. We took our time though
and took pictures along the way of course:
We eventually got
back out to the Castle where they announced that the fireworks were cancelled
due to “high winds.” I thought that was odd as it was cold but there was no
wind. Anyways we snapped a few last pictures of the Castle before we made our
way slowly down Main Street :
We stopped off
at the lobby for Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln to get a few last minute
pressed pennies and found a really cool one with Walt Disney’s signature on it:
When we came
back out we spotted Mickey Mouse in his festive gear so went over to say
goodbye to him:
We said Goodbye
to Walt as well before we left the park:
It was time to
say goodbye to Disneyland for the final time
and head back to the hotel:
When we got
back to the hotel we finished off our packing. We were sad to be leaving California but had a
great few days:
