High School Musical and Disneyland at Night


Alright, as far as shows go - this was the last on the list of our must see items, asfter which would be the wait for the fireworks at 8 P.M. This was supposed to happen at the same spot where we observed the Disney parade earlier, and since it wasn't too immediate, this time, we waled around in a liesurely pace - Bernice even got to find time to eat a cotton candy.

Soon as the High School Musical show came around (basically performers with one float as a backdrop, the kids were all watching - and the cast even tried making the show interactive by getting young kids to play 'basket ball' using hoola hoops and beach balls as props. The very young kids were, of course, up to the challenge.


High School Musical - one float with cast performers dancing to the movies upbeat tunes.


This is it? Where's Zack? Vanessa? Ashley?

After which, the cast invited older kids to join them and teach them simple choreographies, so they could dance with the cast with some of their music. I was hoping to get a picture of Bernice dancing with them - but I guess, she did not find it enticing enough to join in.

Having ended, we were now just walking around Main Street U.S.A. looking for characters whom we could pose with - you see, as of this time, we hardly had such poses with said characters, as we were too busy running from one show to another.

We also got to explore some spots worth taking pictures of - like the castle in the middle (where the fireworks would later be seen from).

We also looked at the different shops, coffee, pastry, souvenir - all just to pass the time. Here's Bernice looking at candies and chocolates.


While Barbie is looking at other similar souvenir items.

Here I am looking around...




...and we finally found Mickey and Minnie, to get our pictures taken.



Right after that, we found Goofy too!

...and later on, just resting and awaiting the fireworks display.


Here's a picture of the castle as the fireworks were about to start.


Here I am, having my picture taken with the Mickey collage lighted up. This was on the way out - post fireworks display, which also signalled the formal close of the theme park, likewise ending our Disneyland experience. We then returned ot our hotel, took our well deserved baths... ate dinner - room service style, as we were too tired to go out, and finally got our first decent sleep since... well, since two nights ago.

The next day, we were scheduled to leave the Disneyland Hotel by noon, and transfer to another hotel - one closer to the city proper, Ocean Park and the shopping centers... which was good, since I'd suspected that we'd be sleeping until late morning.
