MONDAY - HONG KONG 
HONG KONG DISNEYLAND

The entrance to Mystic Point, a small little land with basically one attraction.
Even though there isn't too much in this section of the park, the theming is fantastic. This is the Explorer's Club Restaurant.
And this is the centerpiece of Mystic Point, Mystic Manor.
I noticed this portrait in the queue was of someone called Maestro D. Elfman. It turns out the Danny Elfman composed the score for the attraction.
The idea for the attraction is that Mystic Manor is the home of Lord Henry Mystic, an explorer and collector of artifacts.
The ride system is trackless.
So the story is that Lord Mystic brought back from one of his travels a music box that might have some enchanted powers. His monkey companion, Albert, just can't leave it alone.
The box has the ability to animate inanimate object, in this case all of the Lord's collection.
Albert spends the entire ride escaping the perils of the box's magic.
The effects in the attraction are magnificent. This is a giant tiki head spewing lava from its mouth.
Eventually the box rips a hole in the wall of one of the rooms and Albert tries his best to get a hold of the box.
He eventually does and everything is back to normal, just in time for Lord Mystic to show up and remind Albert not to touch the box.
I think this might be part of the queue on very busy days.
Next stop, Grizzly Gulch.
Their version of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is called Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars.
Kind of an odd thing. I went through the single rider line and ended up sitting next to this girl on the ride. Before the ride started she asked if I would take a selfie with her. I don't know, maybe she was on a scavenger hunt and one of the things she needed was a picture with an older white guy.
The coaster is a bit of a combination of Big Thunder and Expedition Everest. This lift is a false hill climb. It gets near the top and then suddenly drops backward.
A little Chinese bird.
The entrance to Adventureland.
I found this rather interesting. There are three queues for three different boats on the Jungle River Cruise, one for each of three languages: Cantonese, Mandarin and English. I got on the English boat.
Although to be honest her English was a little hard to understand.
This Jungle Cruise ride has FIRE!
And bubbly water.
The railroad was closed, which was disappointing, but at least every other attraction was open.
Looks like a set for a Frozen meet and greet.
