Orbitron: Piloting your Own Flying Saucer, Disneyland, Hongkong

AND THE RIDES for FUN BEGAN...
Standing in line for the Orbitron ride
The first ride they took was the Orbitron.  From the word itself:  Orbit_ron. You get to steer a sleek spaceship into the outer space. To start that ride you have to:

1.Secure the boarding pass from the Ground Control. Stand in line patiently. A lot of future travelers are also wanting to fly theirs.
2. Make your way to your assigned multi-passenger spacecraft. Be careful hopping into it.
3. Prepare to launch.  Breathe in. Head and shoulders straight. Don't bow nor stoop.
4. Hold tight as saucer levitates and begins rapid of revolutions.

* If you want to be the commander, take the front row. You are in charge to direct how high you fly by moving a lever inside the ship. 

* Astronauts can initiate sound effects by pressing buttons inside saucer.

Andrei stood in line with the 3 kids without Noelle. Standing in line for your turn under the heat of the sun can be unfriendly for a kid.  She chose to sat beside us. Mom, Chesca, Vanessa, Noelle and I were seated under the tree.  The heat was not friendly at all. Hahaha. Good thing there were some trees that provided shade and fresh air.  But then they had fun for sure.

I kept myself busy learning and tracking down the map so we could maximize our visit.  Not a map fan but it helped.  I wonder why map reading is not imposed that hard in Filipino education. 

While seated I studied Disney map
