Adventurous April Exercise Challenge

LONG walk with my pup late this afternoon. Most of it spent waiting on her to get up from laying in the shady sections. Whenever it gets above 70 here she gets tired/hot pretty quickly. Can't blame her since she has mostly black fur and a double coat of it!

So... only counting 20 minutes today.

Three more members turned Disneyland Paris Pink today: SarahDisney, HappyGrape, et moi, sophy1996.

In Disneyland Paris, you'll look in vain for two Adventureland classics: there is no Jungle Cruise and no Tiki Room. I don't know why no Tiki Room, but as for the Jungle Cruise, blame the European winter. It was felt that the weather would be too hard on the audioanimatronic animals. Apparently there were some plans to build a ride under a glass roof, but those never came to fruition.

Anyone suffering Tiki Room withdrawal might want to check out Colonel Hathi's Pizza Outpost, a counter-service restaurant that has trees in the dining area with audioanimatronic birds.
 
We started our weekend early on Friday with a day Six Flags New England. (For anyone who lives close enough to go, the revamped Cyclone us awesome!!!) I counted 1/4 of the six hours we were there as walking, for 90 minutes.

Then I spent today in Boston - took the train in to drop DS off at a volunteer thing, then walked all over and went to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. All added up, another 135 minutes!

I think I'm skipping pink and going straight to red.

I have not been checking in - Sorry! - Here's my catch up -

26 minutes on the treadmill week & a half ago Thursday

Last weekend - Spent a long weekend at Disney World and completed the Dark Side Challenge

Going by Active minutes on fit bit -
151 on Saturday including the 10k & active walking to start line, at Expo, MK, & Resort
222 on Sunday including the Half Marathon & active walking to start line, at Resort, Epcot & DHS
28 on Monday walking around Epcot & DHS - guess I was moving slow most of the day because I walked almost 9 miles.

Total fit bit miles for the 3 days was 46.56 - My legs were so tired! Traveled home Tuesday & crashed. It was my first solo trip and I had an amazing time.

Took some planned rest days. Feeling recovered and ready to get back on track.

12 minutes yoga yesterday
24 minutes strength training today

654/900 Total
 
All kinds of color-changing to report today!! :yay:

While conquering the Dark Side, kathleen27 turned Tokyo Disneyland Purple.

I don't think I ever mentioned that Tokyo's Adventureland also has a Swiss Family Treehouse.

Saphire5742 turned Disneyland Paris Pink.

An attraction that seems to be unique to Paris' Adventureland is Le Passage Enchanté d'Aladdin (Aladdin's Enchanted Passage). This walk-through attraction features windows showing various scenes from Aladdin. It is part of the Adventureland Bazaar, the Middle Eastern-themed entry to Paris' Adventureland.

PollyannaMom soaked up some culture and jumped right into Hong Kong Disneyland Red.

At Hong Kong Disneyland, the Jungle Cruise encircles Tarzan's Treehouse. The Jungle Cruise tours are available in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, each with its own queue. If you want to be able to appreciate the corny puns, be sure to get in the right line.

and LizardQueen8 became the first member to reach 100% of goal and turned Shanghai Disneyland WISH Green.

Shanghai Disneyland doesn't even open until June 2016. Reports indicate that its "Adventure Isle" will feature some different attractions from other Adventurelands. For example, instead of a Jungle Cruise, it is supposed to have a dinosaur-themed rapids ride called "Roaring Rapids." See concept art and a description on Shanghai Disneyland's website.
