Heimlich's Tough!

Disney's California Adventure opened on February 8, 2001. Which of the following was NOT opened that same day? (Answer at the end.)

1. King Triton's Carousel
2. Jumpin' Jellyfish
3. Golden Zephyr
4. Heimlich's Chew Chew Train
5. It's Tough to be a Bug!

When you enter Bugs Land you are transformed to the size of a little bug. If you don't believe me, look at the picture on the left. We are standing on the ground looking up, and these clovers tower above our heads.

April 20 - Two more attractions at California Adventure round our day:


Heimlich's Chew Chew Train is a ride designed for the little bugs in the family. The train travels through discarded food and wrappers, such as the chewed up watermelon shown here. A fun little ride.





It's Tough to Be a Bug! is a 3-D film and show full of fun and surprises. The theater is inside a giant tree, where we meet creepy crawler critters large and small. To say this show is just a movie is like saying Mickey is just a mouse! The on-screen action involves some awesome 3-D adventure. We also meet a larger than life animatronic Hopper (a grasshopper). During the course of the show we get sprayed by poisoinous creatures, poked by bees, and recoil at the giant spiders climbing down from the ceiling. Skiddish children - be warned. Skiddish adults - man up and comfort the kids! All in all, it's a fun show and shouldn't be missed.

Answer: Heimlich's Chew Chew Train opened on 10/7/2002. The other attractions all opened the same day as Disney's California Adventure park.
