Disneyland 2015: Day 3

We started our day in California. The highlights or the things we HAD to get done:

1. Meet Elsa and Anna
2. Meet Olaf
3. Ride Cars Ride
4. Ride Toy Story Mania

Our first stop was to get our Fast Pass to meet the FAMOUS Elsa and Anna. While I ran to do that the kids headed over to Monsters Inc to ride the ride. I then headed to get our Fast Pass for the Cars Ride. We then met up and waited in line to get a beeper so that we would be notified when we could meet Olaf.

Our time to meet Olaf came first so in we went to Arendelle.

 

Walking into Arendelle you really felt as though you were there.

While we were waiting to get our picture taken with Olaf, my Fast Pass Alarm on my phone went off and the Photo Pass helper took a screen shot of the reminder.

Meeting Olaf was awesome. He is so cute in real life.

After meeting Olaf it was time for us to meet Elsa and Anna.

 

Anna was sad that Abi gave Elsa a hug first, but then turned and gave Anna a hug. I am sure that happens to her a lot.

 

Abigail and her little smirk. She got to meet Sophia the First.

 We rode the Cars ride again. I TOTALLY recommend (if you are able to) to ride it at night. However anytime you ride it its fun.

 Ta Mater but with out the TA.

While in California we were able to ride the majority of the Bugs Land rides and all of the Paradise Pier rides except the Ferris Wheel. We spent the majority over in California and so with the few hours we had left we headed back over to Disneyland Park.

 

We made our way over to Adventure Land and decided to go to the Tiki Room. While we waited we had the Pineapple Dole Whip Ice Cream. We had never had one before and I had heard from lots of friends that that is one treat you HAVE to try or have. So we did and it hit just the spot. So while we ate our Dole Whip and were waiting for the Tiki Room, the kids started dancing.

Last but not least we HAD to ride Story Book Canal Boat ride to see Arendelle.

We again had tired feet, tired bodies and were ready for our heads to hit our soft pillows in our hotel.

Disneyland 2015: Day 2

With this trip we decided to buy a 3 day park hopper just to make sure we were able to fit everything in. On our last trip we only did a 2 day park hopper and missed A LOT. With our 3 day we were able to get an early hour into Disneyland Park so we headed out early to be to the park by 9.

We decided to start off the day by riding Space Mountain (since we missed that one last time). I laughed the whole entire time while the kids were screaming. It was kind of funny.

After Space Mountain we headed to Finding Nemo. We spent the majority of the day in Disneyland Park.

 After riding most of all of the rides in Fantasy Land we decided to make our way over to the Haunted Mansion and Pirates. We rode both of those rides with walk on priority (meaning no line to wait in). We were then quite hungry and we headed over to Cafe Orleans for some southern food. We had Gumbo, their famous Monte Cristo Sandwhiches (YUM!!) and of coarse their Mickey Mouse Beignets.

  

 

Besides the rides this trip we got to meet A LOT of princesses. Starting with Rapunzel.

 Abi was telling Rapunzel that she had lipstick on her tooth.

 

We decided to spend the last two hours of the park being opened over at California. So off we went. As we entered the park we saw a BIG HUGE Snowflake and of course we had to get our picture taken.

 

 

We headed to Cars Land first and it was just as exciting to see it the second time as it was the first time. You truly feel like you are in the movie Cars.

  

  

  

It was quite funny we were debating on riding the Racers Rides (especially when the wait was 60 min), as we were deciding some nice people approached us and asked us if we were going to ride the ride. We answers Not sure. They then gave us their Fast Pass as they just decided to ride the ride through the Single Riders line. 

 After Cars Land we headed towards Paradise Pier in the hope to wait in line for Toy Story Mania which is always a MUST ride ride.

 That ride ended our night. We had tired feet, tired kids and we were ready to rest our little heads. That day I took 20,259 steps. Yep we were tired.
