MMCTV EP0202 - Sindbad's Storybook Voyage

Meandering Mouse Club TV - Disney Park Video Adventures from Around the World! Produced in association with Frikitiki Productions. Video taken in June 2007. At Toyko DisneySEA, there's an attraction that I consider to be one of my favorite attractions across all of the nine Disney parks that I have visited globally. In the Arabian Coast section of the park is Sindbad's Storybook Voyage. It's a boat ride like Pirates of the Caribbean or Small World and some people have compared it to Small World. The comparison ends at it being a boat ride, though. While it might look like small dolls, they are full animatronic figures with great motion capabilities. When Jeff and I visited in June 2007, the ride had just come off of rehab. The imagineers had given the attraction a new storyline. Alan Menken of "Little Mermaid" along with Glen Slater created the song "Compass of your Heart" which follows you throughout your voyage with SIndbad and his loyal tiger cub, Chandu. I was fully captivated by the ride. Mermaids, genies, thugs, giant birds, dancing monkeys...this attraction has it all! It is fully original, the song is catchy, the sets are detailed, and the animatronic figures are amazing (just watch for the belly dancers!). Too bad they didn't sell Chandu plushes. Before we take the ride, you get to see some of the Oasis area of the Arabian Coast that is next to the Lost River Delta. This area was seen briefly in MMCTV EP0111, Musica Mexicana. Playing in the background is the Port Theme Song for the Arabian Coast which is taken from the Tokyo DisneySEA 5th Anniversary Music Album CD. ( Special thanks to Jeff for letting me use some of his pictures of the attraction in the video. I hope you enjoy this trip into Sindbad's Storybook Voyage. Please rate the podcast at iTunes.
