Back to Disney Sea today. We have 4-day passes which restricted us to Disneyland on day 1 and Disney Sea on day 2, but on days 3 and 4 we can do as we please. Easy choice to go back to Disney Sea today.

Maeve was feeling a bit better so we started with Raging Spirits – the 360 degree loop roller coaster she skipped yesterday. She loved it. Wanted to repeat it right away but the queue had become a bit horrendous.

Used our first fastpass of the day on the Toy Story ride that we didn’t do yesterday. Even though we got the passes first thing, our time wasn’t till early afternoon.

Good news – Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull ride was open today.

More good news – the ride was much better than the movie. Which isn’t saying much. Actually, the ride was great.

After that we headed to Port Discovery to do the Nemo and Friends ride, which Corwin hadn’t done yet. Short wait time, which was good. Fun again.

Then did Aquatopia again. The hard-to-describe, random ride that we all really enjoy but isn’t rated all that well by the general public. It was about this point that it started raining. Pretty feeble rain, but it was on and off for the rest of the day. Too humid for any of us to wear a raincoat, except Maeve.

Went and did the lottery for show tickets. Missed out on tickets for the Big Band Beat show but got tickets for the Tip Top Easter show (Easter is the theme at the Disney parks at the moment). Anyone can actually watch the show, we just got tickets for a prime seating area.

Then to an Italian place in the Mediterranean Harbour area for lunch. Got Maeve to eat food other than plain rice or vanilla ice-cream for the first time in a couple of days.

After lunch we went back to the Arabian Coast part to see the Magic Lamp Theatre. Essentially a 3D movie thing like the Philharmagic show we saw at Disneyland yesterday, but with some live on stage stuff mixed in too.

Then we went back to Mermaid Lagoon and discovered a whole little world underground there that we had missed the previous day, while walking through.

We rode the Whirlpool ride and the Blowfish Balloon Race – definitely little kid rides (so short!!) but enjoyable.

Then it was finally time for our fastpass ride on Toy Story Mania.

I hadn’t very high hopes, despite its popularity, but it was actually great fun. It is a ride around and shoot at things ride (like the two in Disneyland) but it’s a much better set up. It’s more of a shooting gallery scenario, and you move from area to area. Very enjoyable. We’d have happily done it again if the queue was less than 40 mins.

We then did the Tower of Terror again – on fastpasses.

Was the first time we’d done it all together as a family, so was good fun. Is one of those rides where you drop suddenly and laugh hysterically.

Then we walked back to the Lost River Delta and did what felt like our longest queue ever – for another go on the Indiana Jones ride. Was less than an hour, but felt like longer.

Then we rode Raging Spirits again before rushing back to the Mediterranean Harbour for the show we “won” good “seats” for.

The word “seats” is in quote marks because we had to sit on the ground. The locals are pros at this stuff and people carry around their own wee mats which they use for sitting and watching parades and shows. We struggled a bit, sitting on the ground for an hour, but at least it wasn’t raining then. Here are some show photos:

It’s all pretty random, but the performers are very good and the while thing is very slick – as you’d expect from Disney.

Dinner time then. We went back to Lost River Delta to eat slightly Mexican food. Maeve ate rice. *sigh* Then Morgan took the kids away to do some rides so that I could do some blogging (not much free time in these action-packed Disney days).

Apparently they rode Aquatopia 6 times! Morgan has some photos on his phone so I’ll try to load them on here later.

Then it was time to meet up again and find a spot to watch Fastasmic – the night show. Again, a bit random plot-wise, but spectacular to watch:

Awesome.

Then we were going to stay for Disney Light the Night (about 5 min fireworks show over the park) but they called it off because of the weather. It had started to rain again towards the end of Fantasmic but not very heavily.

Tomorrow is our last Disney day. No solid plans but we do plan on being at Disneyland at 8.30pm for the electrical lights parade.
