For the first time this week, i was able to finally go inside one of disney's water parks, Typhoon Lagoon. According to the Imagineers' legend, a powerful typhoon wreaked havoc on a seaside village and left ships, surfboards, buoys, and other flotsam strewn about its lagoon and rivers in its wake. At the rear of Typhoon Lagoon now sits the Miss Tilly shrimp boat, perched perilously and incongruously, atop a volcanic mountain. Every few minutes, the mountain lets loose a volcanic tremor and sends an enormous wave rippling across the lagoon.
With it's rich backstory and beautiful water we dove right in and began our adventure through the park, riding the water coaster The Crush n' Gusher, sliding down huge slides, lazily relaxing in castaway creek, and swimming with sharks. Going snorkeling was amazing. Getting in the water with a lot of underwater sea life, seeing my dear friend Dory swimming around, and some very big sharks (don't worry, they were the kind that didn't have teeth) swimming underneath me was absolutely amazing and was something I have always wanted to do, and while it wasn't quite the ocean, it was still absolutely breathtaking. Typhoon Lagoon was a great way to spend a hot day off in Walt Disney World and made for a great water park experience and I can't wait to take on Blizzard Beach in the next few days.
