California Adventure

On Friday, we went to California Adventure-just us. We had never been and had a hard time deciding if we wanted to go there or just go back to Disneyland again, or get a park-hopper. We decided to just do Cal Ad. for the day. We got there early, had our disability pass ready to go and went full speed ahead!

First, photo ops…First ride-the Hollywood Tower of Terror! IT even looks ominous under those dark clouds! We did get rained on a little bit that day, but it wasn’t too bad. This was my favorite ride of all! I loved it! Lucia and I went on it first, then swapped with Julio and Marco.

Then we headed

over to Bug Land and went on some kiddie rides which Sylvie loved.

Then we watched the Disney Junior Live Show. It was ok.

Then we headed over to Soarin’ Over California-which was broken down. So I went on the water rapids ride with Lucia and got SOAKED! Julio went on it alone and didn’t get wet hardly at all. I was wet the rest of the day.

Then we went over to this nature play area where the kids would have liked to play for hours. I think that’s the dog from Up.

Then we headed

over to Paradise Pier and went on every single ride over there-the big roller coaster, the Goofy roller coaster, the flying rockets, the spinning swings, the carousel, the Toy Story ride (one of my favorites) We tried to get Sylvie on the Little Mermaid ride-no way! Good thing too, because we got stuck on that ride. We did get to see a parade.

Sylvie liked this dropping ride.Julio on the roller coaster.

We all went on the ferris

wheel, I was terrified! Lucia said it was her favorite ride. Marco liked the Toy Story ride.

Cars Land-we didn’t get to go on the fast Cars ride-too crowded. By about 7 pm, Disneyland closed, so it was so packed we could hardly get through the park.  We went on 2 out of 3 Cars rides. But last stop before we left was Hollywood Tower of Terror again. We got on and off in 20 minutes with our pass and the people next to us had been in line for 2 hours!  We were exhausted! I think we only missed 3 rides in the whole park! We left about 10 pm after getting some treats and souvenirs. We had a blast!
