[JAPAN] Where Dreams Come True II

February 23rd, 2010

—Disney Sea!—

To begin with, i lovelovelovelovelovelove Little Mermaid, it IS my all time favourite disney movie since I was a little girl. I love the whole idea of colourful talking sea creatures, and also pretty mermaids (though to be honest I don’t appreciate the scary ones you see in Harry Potter etc x_x). As a little girl, I suppose I enjoy a little fantasy/imagination

So you can imagine how disappointed I was when I didn’t come across anything little mermaid related at Disneyland, however I knew there had to be something at DisneySea (duh). And there was! at Mermaid Lagoon! It was my favourite part of the theme park (for obvious reasons), It was like a little girl’s dream come true just seeing Triton’s kingdom stand before me. And once you enter inside, it was another world of loveliness. Dark, colourful lights which recreated the underwater world. So beautiful!

And also, it was the MOST devastating day, as a photographer. Because the night before I had realize I forgot the Japanese adapter converter thingy at the previous hotel!! You don’t know how guilty and bad I felt for myself, and everyone else (who relied on that adapter to charge up their cameras, and yes everyone’s cameras were at 0% ;() So, fortunately, we still had SOMETHING to rely on… my Canon Ae-1 and Fuji Instax, yes its film, but it was better than nothing!

I’m sure I will go to Disney Sea again, even though, like Disneylands, queueing up for rides IS a PAIN.

We queued up 3hours for Journey to the Centre of the Earth ride, which went for only about 3mins, and didn’t found it that amazing. I was expecting alot more excitement and frightening drops, instead it was all about the ‘special effects’ you encounter on the ride. In future, I’d gladly get a 2 day pass JUST for Disney Sea. I so wanted to go on Tower of Terror, which was about 4hours wait (this was around 10-11am), and later, fast passes had ran out.
