As a cynic, I was sceptical about getting excited about meeting Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Nevertheless, I figured that Disneyland would probably be a hit with the kids (3 and 7 yrs). It was busy but the queues were reasonable. Longest time spent queuing for an attraction was 45 mins (lion king performance). The lion king and Mickey Mouse shows were amazing. My little one totally believed the cast were real and was so excited. The singing, the stage, the interactive play were all entertaining. My cynicism about Disneyland melted away immediately and totally got into all the hype. The atmosphere was very friendly. Only downside was the food. Lots of choice but pricey and not the best quality. Must see the day and night parade. Both as good as each other. Didn't disappoint. The fireworks at the end of the night finished off an enjoyable visit nicely. Best place to see the fireworks is in front of the Disney castle. Would recommend... Even for sceptics!
