I woke up early in the morning and was so excited that I couldn't sleep. I found that the weather was cloudy and the temperature was not high, so I put on a coat. I didn't expect this coat to really work, because the temperature that night was only over ten degrees and the wind was very strong. As for what I carried with me, I traveled lightly, only carrying a small shoulder bag and a disposable raincoat inside. I didn't bring an umbrella, but I took a canvas large-rimmed hat that could block the sun and rain. I brought a water cup from Beijing because I heard from a friend that there are many drinking water supply points in Disney. Without even having breakfast, I went to the lobby to wait for the shuttle bus. Everyone else travels together, but I am the only one, but I don't feel lonely at all.
In less than half an hour, the shuttle arrived at Disney's parking lot. The driver explained the meeting place and the shuttle schedule, and we disbanded. Walking on the bridge leading to Disney, my heart surged with the bgm of the Beauty and the Beast animated movie in my ears. When I arrived at the entrance line, I felt like I had been poured a bucket of cold water because there were so many people.
It took a long time to start security checks and admission. After admission, there was also a queue to collect tickets, interspersed with various scalpers and queue jumping phenomena. I then calculated that it took a total of more than 2 and a half hours from the time I arrived at the entrance point to the time I played my first event (Over the Horizon). After getting the tickets, I really entered Disneyland. I began to bind the tickets to the Shanghai Disney official APP to get FP (Fast Pass Card, each person can draw up to three tickets per day). As a result, I couldn't get the FP card for the Skyline. I couldn't get it, but I got a Speed Light Wheel Card, and the time period was about 9:30-10:30.
Since there was still some time before this, I also saw on the APP that the queue time for Crossing the Horizon was less than an hour, so I went to the horizon to line up first, thinking that I could catch up with the time to use the speed light wheel card. During the queuing process at Horizon, you can scan the QR code on the wall to participate in the popular science knowledge competition game, and you can also choose which team to join. Since it is indoors, the answers of each team will be projected on the high walls on all sides
。I joined the Snake Team and actually felt like I had traveled to the world of Harry Potter. The question was so difficult, but I finally got a good result of third place in my team, which was quite interesting. Finally it was my turn. The staff first led everyone to watch a video about the Thunderbird mother-in-law. Then we entered the hall of the project installation. There were several rows of seating equipment, and I was arranged in the last row. As the equipment rises, the huge circular screen in front of us also wraps us in it. This project is a combination of visual, auditory, olfactory and tactile experiences, and I won't disclose the specific situation, because you can only feel the fun when you experience it yourself. But I can say that my fear of heights and deep-sea phobia are about to attack (ps. There is actually no scene of going to the sea). Plus, I didn't eat anything in the morning, so I actually retched a little when I came out, so I had to endure it.
After experiencing the first project with great difficulty, I found that I couldn't make it to the Speed Light Wheel before 10:30. So I started to stroll leisurely while watching, and took a lot of photos by the way. The reference value of the previous strategies was basically zero. The Battle of Falling Treasures is a popular event at Disney. I went to the Pirates of the Caribbean area and went to the queue. Unexpectedly, there were so many people. In fact, it only took me more than 20 minutes to wait for me. Compared with Flying Over the Horizon, the queuing time for sinking treasure seems too conscientious. I also got the FP card for Thunder Mountain Rafting during the queuing process, which is about 15:30-16:30 p.m. I really like the sinking treasure expedition, Captain Jack and the Black Pearl, David Jones and the giant sea monster, as if I were really participating in this fierce naval battle. By the way, there will be a little surprise before the end.
Although I still had some unfinished business, I continued to participate in the next project. Fortunately, when I accidentally walked to the location of the Frozen Singing Festival, the performance was about to start. Since I was alone, I caught up with a tail and was put into the game. Although it was hard to find a seat at the back in the end, and the content of the performance was not as exciting as I had expected, the children were really enthusiastic. They sang loudly to the music and wore Aisha's queen dresses under the guidance of the actors, and their interaction with the actors was happy and enviable.
Finally, I came to my favorite and most regrettable project, which is-creating a fast wheel of light. I was already very hungry by then, but I walked near the future world. I was a little hesitant, first because I thought this project was quite thrilling, and second, I was afraid that I would really vomit after finishing this project. Thinking of the cowhide I had blown with my friends before, I still went to the queue. In fact, when I saw pictures related to the Nimbus Speed on the Internet, I thought the scene was a little familiar, because I had seen the movie "Creation War" in high school. It was really cool and even had a taste of cyberpunk.
Thinking of my friend saying that there was a single person passage for this project, I drove straight into the innermost part when the long line formed on the other side. There were only two people in front of me. Since the speed light wheel has two seats in a row, our people in the single-channel followed the staff's arrangements and asked one person to sit in the single seat. I was really nervous at the time, my palms kept sweating. In addition, there was no one around me to accompany me. That was the only time I felt lonely in Shanghai.
It takes about 45 minutes for an ordinary team to queue up, but it only takes me about ten minutes to get to my seat. It was quick and I kept cheering when our team reached the finish line. This project is really cool, with a good combination of excitement and entertainment. I used to ride the world's fastest roller coaster in Ferrari World. It was really scary. The whole journey was accompanied by a sense of weightlessness at extreme speed, as if my soul was always one step behind my body. However, the combination of speed and visual effects of the extremely fast wheel is exquisite, and the sense of weightlessness is very weak. When the wind whistles in my ears, I feel like I have traveled to the real future world.
Thinking that I could experience the Speed Light Wheel again when I had time in the afternoon, I went to Disney Town for a simple meal. By the way, Disney has many toilets, but I don't know why I took a long time to search for them when I was in a hurry to go to the toilet at night. Next, I went to Marvel's headquarters, where staff playing the beauty team could take photos with them. I wasn't very interested in it. Iron Man's armor is very shiny, and I took many photos. Actually, I like the Avengers series a lot, but the Marvel Headquarters in Disney is not as exciting. Unexpectedly, when I walked out, it actually started to rain sporadically. I wore my own wide-brimmed hat enough to withstand the drizzle, but it was still very comfortable. Unconsciously, I walked to Disney Castle. There were very few people on the platform in front of the castle. I took advantage of this moment to quickly take a panoramic view of the castle. Unfortunately, the sky is cloudy, but there is a desolate atmosphere. I found out that the afternoon float parade didn't start until 3:30, so I could use this gap to play another event. Walking to the Pirates of the Caribbean area again, I visited the Siren Revenge with a huge mermaid on the bow.
Finally found the dwarf mine car and waited in line for about an hour. In the process, the sun came out and finally warmed up a little. Sitting on the mine car, he screamed with his eyes wide open the entire time. In fact, this project is very common in other amusement parks, but because it is a dwarf mine car, the extra emotion adds a lot of points. The experience is very pleasant and more suitable for children to play. On the way to the float parade area, I walked through the Alice Maze. The maze is simple because the walls made of green plants are low. This is actually a small amusement event. The Red Queen sculpture stands in it and can take very nice photos.
I arrived at the float parade area about half an hour early, and the road was filled with people on both sides. I found a position where I could see the parade and stood, always on guard against others blocking my view. Accompanied by our joyful music, familiar Disney classic animated characters and floats carrying huge props passed by, and everyone raised their mobile phones to record the beautiful moments into images. Le Pei and Eugene are so happy, Aisha is so beautiful, Mulan is so powerful on a large horse, and the little lady waving the military flag is so sweet...
It's nearly four o'clock since the cruise ended, and I don't want to miss FP again. So I rushed to the Lei Ming Mountain rafting side as soon as possible. While waiting, I put on the disposable raincoat that I had prepared long ago. I didn't expect that the hat of my raincoat was broken (the raincoat was given for free when I participated in long-distance running last year), speechless and helpless. This rafting is not exciting at all. Our fellow shipmates have been talking and laughing. It wasn't until the end that there was a low downhill slope. As a result, all the water poured in where I was sitting, and it instantly poured a deep chill into my heart. My hair is wet, and my shoes are wet. Fortunately, the sun is good and you can bask in it. Seeing that there is a rope project in front of man-made mountains and waterfalls, I was a little eager to try. But I really wanted to play Falling Treasure and Speed Wheel of Light again, so I moved on.
Next, I followed the previous route to the Pirates of the Caribbean region and experienced a handful of sinking treasures again. It was still only twenty minutes in line, and the girl sitting next to me was obviously scared by the sudden appearance of the sea monster, but I didn't have deep sea phobia during the entire time. I was very conflicted after finishing this project. On the one hand, I really wanted to experience the Speed Nimbus again, and on the other hand, I also wanted to experience a rope challenge that I had never played before, so I made a decision that I regretted-to play the rope challenge.
It took more than an hour to queue for my turn, and I regretted it when I reached the plank road. Because I was really afraid of heights, the stone pillars at intervals were terrible, and I didn't dare to step on various hanging wooden boards and ropes. I just walked on the regular plank road on one side sheepishly. Seeing my own batch of children walking past the rope net, I decided to challenge myself. Just as I walked to the rope net trembling, I had only taken a step and found that I couldn't turn back. I was short, but the safety rope was very short. When I finally slowly walked to the middle, I suddenly felt like a hanging piece of bacon, unable to move.
I didn't have anyone around me to encourage me, but I suddenly envied the tourists who traveled together. At this time, I was already behind the same group of people, and I didn't want to be seen by the next group of people that I couldn't move, so I had to hold the safety rope tightly with both hands and move to that side bit by bit. From then on, I was very obedient and kept walking on the safe and solid road. Watching the little brother with flexible hands and feet walking on the most dangerous rope and passing quickly, I could only marvel. This project should be very suitable for those who love to climb and take risks, but it is really unfriendly to people who are afraid of heights. Even now, I still regret choosing to play the rope challenge. After all, the queue time is enough for me to play the speed light wheel twice. So he secretly made up his mind that he would have to play the Speed Light Wheel at least three times next time he came to Disney to calm down the regret this time.
Here comes the highlight, and that is the final Disney Castle Glow-in-Light Phantom Show. The Luminous Phantom Show starts at 8:30 p.m., and I start looking for a seat at 7:00, but many people already occupy the front seats. Since the people in front of me were all standing, I didn't dare to sit down for fear of being stepped on by others. While waiting, I felt pain all over my body. After calculating the time I had to stand in line and wait all day, it would add up to more than six hours from the time I arrived at the Disney entrance area. It is no exaggeration to say that if you include the sporadic queuing time, it is enough to reach seven hours. The luminous phantom show is very beautiful, which touches me, as a person who has read many Disney works. There are many related videos on the Internet, with good shooting angles and clarity, but only by watching it in person can you enter this beautiful dream. I really like Disney and want to play all Disneys in the world.
After the Luminous Phantom Show ended, while the number of tourists decreased, I took some photos of the lit castle and the carousels. The temperature was very low and the wind was blowing. Since our hotel shuttle bus didn't arrive until 10 o'clock, I kept wandering around Mickey's store. The things sold inside are expensive, but the quality is not very satisfactory. It is still quite good to see. The aunt holding the sign in the parking lot was really dedicated. We took the last bus back to the hotel and ended a day of Disney trip. I ate warm food at the convenience store, and with this warmth, I fell asleep.
