Day TwoOur day started off by queuing in a busy hallway for breakfast, I had never seen queues for breakfast this long I think I was waiting longer for breakfast than I did for any of the rides that day, luckily we were spared some of the wait as they had a table for two available and there wasn't any couples in front of us, only big families. I didn't take long to eat as I don't ever eat much in the morning, but I did take a couple of rolls to nibble on later. It felt like I was waiting for Chris for ages as he has plates after plates worth of food and I just wanted to get to the Walt Disney Studios as soon as I could.
Luckily we could go straight over to Walt Disney Studios after breakfast as for the first time ever we went to breakfast with everything we needed for the day ahead, so we headed straight over to experience Ratatouille: The Adventure for the first time. Instead of going past Crush's Coaster and around that way, to get to Ratatouille: The Adventure, we walked via Hollywood Boulevard which definitely seemed an awful lot quieter.
When we got around to Ratatouille: The Adventure, we picked up a Fast Pass, as we like to collect them all, and used the Single Rider queue. I couldn't believe that we walked straight on and we both ended up in the same rat, whilst other riders were queuing for over an hour in the normal queue. It was definitely a risk I didn't mind taking, as we're both adults so it wouldn't of mattered if we ended up in different rats. The ride itself was amazing, I couldn't fault it. Chris was pleasantly surprised as he didn't know what to expect, he didn't even know that the ride offered a 4D experience. I don't want to go into specifics as everybody needs to witness its wonders first hand.
I then proposed a walk around Toy Story Playland, as I am a big fan of Toy Story, though I weren't too bothered about doing any of the rides as I refuse to go on RC Racer as I really don't like the movement of Pirate Ships, and I did both Slinky Dog ZIg Zag Spin and Toy Solders Parachute Drop when I was there on my last visit. We finished off in Walt Disney Studios by taking a look in the shops before making our way over to Disneyland Park, though we had planned to return to Walt Disney Studios the next day anyway.
When we got to Disneyland Park our first ride of the afternoon was Big Thunder Mountain, which was open again. As always when the queue separates we went left, as last year we bypassed about 50 people by doing so, but we weren't as lucky this time although I do have a feeling the left queue is slightly shorter, not that I have any evidence to prove that. It wasn't long until we were at the front of the queue and directed to the our carriage. It was nice to experience Big Thunder Mountain again as I do enjoy it a lot, it was longer than I remembered though not that I'm complaining.
On the way over to our next ride, we picked up a Fast Pass for Big Thunder Mountain to add to our collection. Peter Pan's Flight was next on our list, as last year when I visited the ride was closed. It was a long queue, but we decided to wait as there wasn't a lot I had yet to experience. Although we were queuing for about 10 minutes before being told that the ride had to close for technical difficulties, but as we already picked up a Fast Pass at Big Thunder Mountain we wasn't even able to collect one for Peter Pan's Flight in hope to come back later.
We make our way over to Blanche Neige et les Sept Nains, a ride in which I didn't even know existed even though I've walked past it many times before heading over to Le Pays des Contes de Fées another ride I was yet to come across, we did manage to get the Fast Pass tickets for Peter Pan's Flight which had opened once again, whilst making our way over to Le Pays des Contes de Fées. It was nice to be on a gentle ride, and to be sitting down as my feet were slowly dying.
Our next destination was Discoveryland, were we did Star Tours, Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast and Autopia. As always, I epically failed at Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast and if Autopia is anything to go by, I would be a danger on the roads.
By the time we had finished in Discoveryland, our Fast Pass for Peter Pan's Flight became valid so we took a stroll over in that direction and we ended up walking straight onto the ride, on the way over there we did came across a horse-drawn carriage that had just stopped around Central Plaza which we sat and watched before it took guests through Main Street USA
Chris suggested we go and do Indiana Jones et le Temple du Péril as earlier I refused to do Space Mountain: Misson 2 and said the only rollercoaster I would consider that day was Indiana Jones et le Temple du Péril, though I never thought Chris would take me up on that.
By this time we were a little peckish so we redeemed our Pause Gourmande vouchers at Hakuna Matata as we weren't disappointed with our choice yesterday. We were utterly shattered so collapsed outside the restaurant as there was no available tables, at which point Chris fall asleep.
As all we were doing was sitting down, we relocated to the area we wanted to watch the parade, once again near the beginning of the route. We were rather early, although we weren't the first, but least we could relax and get a good spot for the parade. The only negative I had about our location was that we were between two sets of speakers so heard the song going at different times.
After the parade passed, we ran over and through Discovery Arcade and luckily was able to cross over and exit the park before the parade had even reached the end of Main Street USA.
We made our way over to Annette's Diner as we enjoyed it that much we couldn't help but return, we even had the same server that recognised us from the day before. Once again, I ordered The Original Mega Burger which was a double burger with cheese, bacon, mushrooms, grilled onions and Annette's sauce however I mixed it up with my side and ordered of Chicken Wings which I halved with Chris whilst Chris halved his Onion Rings. I ordered a Strawberry and Oreo Deluxe Shake again as I just couldn't resist. Chris also went for the same burger he had the day before along with Onion Rings and this time he learnt his lesson and opted for The Cheesiest Choice of Cheesecake.
I can't recall exactly what we did until it was time for Disney Dreams!, there's a good choice we made our way back to the hotel for a little rest before making our way back out for Disney Dreams!. Thankfully we didn't miss the start of it this time, I made sure of it. after which it was time to return to the hotel and get as much sleep as possible, as we definitely needed it.
