We spent 2 days at Disneyland and 1 at California Adventure. As fun and amazing and "magical" Disneyland is, California Adventure was thrilling, new and dazzling--especially to us parents! We enjoyed the rides, parade and shows very, very much. Here are a few of the high-lights:
Luggi's Ride from Carsland. Carsland was amazingly true to life to Radiator Springs.
Going up the lift at Grizzly River Run. Livy LOVED the adventure, fast rides.
Maryn........not so much.
Jessi!!
3-D Toy Story shooting game. Livy and Dad went to ride California Screamin', the roller coaster, while Gina, Maryn and Mom stood in line one hour to get to Toy Story. Just as we were about to get on the ride, Livy and Dad came up and started to tell us about the roller coaster. They were so animated and excited that the monitor of the Toy Story ride let them in line with us to ride this ride. Josh is still rubbing that in....:)
Oh! The parade!! It was about 1,000,000 degrees that day and Dad had to go to work at noon so it was just Mom and the girls for the afternoon and evening. We decided to bypass the rides as 2/4 of us were not big fans of anything remotely fast or adventurous. So, we watched a Broadway like production of Aladdin in the most beautiful theater! We laughed a lot at Turtle Talk with Crush and we really enjoyed about an hour of sitting in a huge building and watching the animation process for many of the Disney movies. But, all in all, our favorite time was the parade. All of the floats are water activated meaning, you can get wet and b/c of the heat and sitting on the hot sidewalk, that was awesome. Not to mention the great floats and characters. Loved every minute of it!
After a long, hot, wonderful day, we met up again with Daddy:
and the littlest one and mom headed home to the hotel while daddy and the big girls enjoyed a few more rides and the light parade. Nothing like a cuddling, content little lady to end the day with!
