THE GOOD
-----------------…read more+ Still a pretttty big park to conquer, but relatively manageable for small kids.
+ No shortage of amazing Disney-themed rides! All of the traditional ones (e.g., It's a Small World, Mad Hatter's Tea Cups, Pirates of the Caribbean,) that Disney fans grew up with at other Disney parks, are here too!
+ Many rides are for kids of all ages, with the exception of only a few that require riders to be of a certain height (e.g., Hyperspace Mountain, Orbitron, etc.)
+ Sooooo much scenery (e.g., Sleeping Beauty's Castle, Main Street, themed lands, rides, parade) to take pictures of and with.
+ Plenty of restaurants to dine in at, including buffets, or do counter service. The food is actually decent and unlike the usual fast food served in the States.
THE NOT SO GOOD
----------------------------
- Warning to non-kid lovers - Avoid Disney parks at all costs. There will be enough tantrums, crying, rude acts, complaints, unsanitary bathrooms, fart smells that will test any person's patience and stomach.
- Felt that more tourists were rude here versus at the U.S. parks - might have been due to the language barrier and that many tourists were from all over Europe speaking different languages, so people were unable to communicate their pleasantries/courtesy.
- Expectedly long lines for the most popular rides (e.g., Peter Pan's Flight)
- Where were the Disney characters???? Not a whole lot of Disney characters to take photos with, unlike in the U.S. parks.
- Disney cast members weren't the most friendliest/engaging or as happy-looking as in the U.S. parks.
- Oddly, there were no soft drinks for children sold at the vendor stands. Only Coke, Coke Zero, Sprite, Fanta and Fuze Ice Tea were available. Children drinks (apple or orange juice) were only sold at restaurants.
- The fireworks show occurs VERY late at 10:30 PM, so keeping up little ones can be a challenge.
MIXED THOUGHTS
---------------------------
= Nada.
RANDOM OBSERVATIONS
-------------------------------------
= Once 7 PM hit, the crowd noticeably got smaller, not to say it was empty, but there was definitely less people as some families left, either for the day or to return later in the evening for the fireworks show.
CONCLUSION
--------------------
= This is a Disney park so expect all things Disney here - buildings, structures, statues, rides, characters, restaurants. Make sure your phone is FULLY charged and bring a phone charger pack! There will be long waits for rides and some counter service restaurants + lots of people no matter when you visit, so bring your best version and patience. Most importantly, HAVE A GOOD TIME!
