Join us for a full day at the Shanghai Disneyland Theme Park in China. We started early this morning by leaving the Toy Story Hotel and catching their courtesy shuttle bus to Shanghai Disneyland. As we were a resort guest we could enter the theme park an hour before everyone else and we used that time to ride TRON 3 times in a row without any line (we would comeback later to ride it one more time). We then went to Toy Story Land to ride Slinky Dog and Fantasyland to ride the Winnie the Pooh rides. We spent a lot of time exploring the new Zootopia Land area and got some candy floss to eat. After Zootopia we watched Fandango, a Jack Sparrow themed Pirate Stunt Show. Had some lunch and then went over to Marvel Universe. In Marvel Universe we had a meet and Greet with Doctor Strange and Spiderman. We then went on the seven dwarfs mine train roller coaster which we purchased premier access passes for so we did not need to wait in line and went on Pirates of the Caribbean after that. We then went to Mickey's Storybook adventure and on the way there met Lina Bell from Duffy and Friends. We got more snacks and carried on riding as many rides as possible including Buzz Lightyear and TRON again. We finished our evening with dinner back at our hotel, the Toy Story Hotel.
