Fun in (and out of) the sun!

Well, it was warm, but tolerable till about 1pm. Gates opened at 10am and we got there just a little after 9; hung around in the shade till about 9:30 then went in and through the line. I got wished a Happy Birthday at the gate, and after a quick pit stop, went to City Hall, where I got a Birthday pin. Whee... I lost track of how many "happy

Do you know if the Disney rides are the same in Europe as they are in the USA? I am curious about that. So for instance if I would go see "pirates" in Paris, would it be the same as when you visit it over there.

I suspect they are all at least a little bit different, and some quite a lot. I think I've read that at Pirates of the Caribbean in Florida, the skeletal pirates and stuff at the end instead of at the beginning as they are here. So generally the same scenes are there, just in a different order.

I do know that the Winnie the Pooh ride at Tokyo Disneyland is very very different from the (lame) one we got here, hehe. (I've seen YouTube clips of the Tokyo one) and their Electrical Parade is much newer and has several floats based on much newer movies than our one here does (Toy Story, Finding Nemo, and Monsters Inc) as well as LED lighting so they can do a lot more than the incandescent ones here.

I suspect overall that the rides probably vary a good bit in how similar or not that they are. When we become millionaires (wishful thinking), we will go visit Disneyland Paris and Tokyo Disney and I'll let you know. *wink*

Wow, I really need to go back and reread edits before I post. hopefully that made some sense, and I'm sorry for being redundant. *blush*

I would love to go on the Winnie the Pooh ride. I had not even heard about that one being in Paris. I don't think it is.
