Disney Day 2

Our second Shanghai Disneyland day began with torrential rain. Our shoes and socks were soaked almost immediately and remained that way for several days. 

Tron was the first port of call for Samantha and I. 

 

The hour wait was indoors, plus the ride was unlike any other I've experienced. Inspired by the Tron movie (whatever that's about), you sit as though you're on a bike racing through a grid track. 

 

Next came Space Ranger spin. It's pretty similar to the Disney World one where you shoot your ray to gain points, except I actually did well at this one. 

 

Marvel Universe was next on the list. We saw replica costumes. 

 

 

I decided I'm going to fight crime with Spidey. I'm taking suggestions for my superhero name. 

 

 

Also, the husband hunt is over. I'm marrying Captain America. 

 

 

Invitations will be sent out soon. 

 

We also attended a drawing class completely in Mandarin. Our character was Spidey.

 

We stepped outside the enclosed Marvel Universe to discover the rain had stopped. A few steps away we found Mickey's room. 

 

 

He wore adorable blue attire and was fond of making heart shapes in the sky. 

 

 

We explored Snow White's story in Mandarin.

 

 

Well known songs gained new interest in a foreign language. 

 

 

Lunch was at Tangled Tree Tavern. The fish and chips was pretty standard. 

 

 

We stumbled upon an artist's nook. 

 

I failed to pull the sword from the stone. 

 

We journeyed to the Crystal Grotto past Disney classics. 

 

 

 

The journey was more interesting than the not pictured destination. 

 

 

Peter Pan's Flight and all the cute statues in the line came next. 

 

 

 

While waiting to discover the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was exactly the same as the Orlando version, the rain returned. 

 

 

 

After the many adventures, we'd had enough adventures for one day and retreated to our hotel. We watched Tron to figure out what that morning's ride was about, but I think it may be one of those movies you need to pay attention to, because I still have no idea what that ride was about.
