The Letters of Lord Henry Mystic

S.E.A. is a precursor to the beloved Adventurers Club!

Lord Mystic is featured in the Mystic Manor attraction in Hong Kong Disneyland.

Shanghai Disney & Hong Kong Disney!

We did it.  We finally visited all the Disney parks in the world!
We went to Shanghai Disneyland & Hong Kong Disney!

First, we went to Shanghai Disneyland.

The Castle is gorgeous

 We got to have lunch at Club 33 in Shanghai Disney!






Nice Balcony view


We loved this mosaic of Thumper.



We especially liked Pirates Cove, and not just because it had our favorite ride - Pirates of the Caribbean: Battle for the Sunken Treasure!


We even found Oswald the Lucky Rabbit!
We'll take a crate of carrots, thanks

I sat in the Queen Of Hearts' Throne.  
I'm sure she won't mind.

There is a lovely little garden at the top of the castle:

And we came home with a friend:
Hello Shanghai Club 33 Mickey

Then it was on to Hong Kong!

Welcome to Hong Kong Disneyland!


You can meet BB-8 at Hong Kong Disneyland!

We loved Mystic Point.

We met StellaLou!

StellaLou and her snacks
One of our favorite moments was when StellaLou met mini-her:

It was a dream come true.

Pink's Pan Am Experience

We had dinner aboard Pan Am Airlines!
It's called the Pan Am Experience.  
Most days it is used for filming plane scenes, but they also host a retro dinner!

Pre-boarding drinks

Our seat in First Class!
We first got some almonds and cocktail service.


We also got 1970s-era magazines to peruse.

During the flight, they have fashion shows of the Pan Am flight attendant's uniforms through the decades.


The Dinner menu!

Our Chateubriand dinner was served tableside.

Thank you for the carrots, ma'am


After dinner drinks!

After dinner, we got to tour some of the airplane and airport sets.
It was a wonderful night.  
The staff is friendly and fantastic, and the dinner was very nice.
I'd highly recommend it!
