    Trip Report Completed- Heavy PTR- California or Bust!! Hint: No Busts!!!

    Day 3 still The whole land is just stunning, even at night It was now time for World of Color. We made what we thought was a major mistake. We kept checking the fast pass for the shows, as we wanted to wait until the second showing to watch it. Every time we went to...

    You asked for it, More DAY 3 Slinky!! His butt would swing around looking for butt rubs. This was a fun parade, especially if you liked getting wet. It seemed to us that the squirt guns on the different floats are controlled by some one inside the float, as kids who were standing on the...

    Half way thru DAY 3 Next was the Pixar Play Parade Sully Notice that Sully and Mike are in their Monster's University costumes. It seemed like the number one selling ball cap in the parks, especially for Women, was the blue MU ball cap. I agree that the movie was entertaining, but we could...

    You guessed it, still on DAY 3 By this time, we could get another fast pass, so we got one for RSR again!! We walked thru the land again. This land made me smile every time we went thru it. That's the Cadillac mountain range I'm sure no one on these boards has ever seen this...

    Day 3 continued It was truly like stepping into the Cars movie. Everything was to scale and almost exact reproductions of what they buildings and atmosphere looks like in the movie. They even had some of the cars characters out and about. They would have meet and greets with them...

    DAY 3- the morning when nothing was open This day we went to DCA. We arrived at the park at 7:30 a.m. and was in the park shortly after. We went to the rope drop area to get in line for Radiator Springs fast passes. Before the CMs dropped the rope, they announced that the entirety of Cars...

    Day 2 in infinity Anna and Elsa on the Frozen float As much as people say they hate this movie now, this float always received the biggest response every night from the crowd. The fireworks show sings "Let It Go" during the show, and you could hear everyone singing along. I would guess...

    Day 2 still, almost done. Mac Let me say that I've personally seen every night time parade that the American Parks have produced and this parade is hands down the best I have every seen. The colors are so vibrant. The effects (especially Mac's trailer) are fantastic. The costumes and...

    Still on Day 2 Do kids now a days even know who Gadget is any more? Even with her picture, it probably still doesn't ring any bells. The kids and I watched Rescue Rangers every afternoon when it was on. Chip and Dale's house It's nice that they have their own house, but it is kind of a...

    Day 3, just kidding, still Day 2 Next was Adventure Land This was our first cruise on this trip. It was hard to understand the skipper while she talked on her mike, and we were the only people on the boat that spoke English, so I'm sure the skipper tried her best, but hard to play to a...

    Day 2 Still... We then stopped to have lunch at Cafe Orleans. The five of us split 3 Monte Cristo sandwiches and one order of their fries. Everything was so good. We ate inside and felt that the atmosphere inside was so so, I would recommend eating outside for better atmosphere. We were...

    Day 2 Continued Hidden Mickey. Not sure if this is intentional or not, but it was being formed by the chairs and table. I can't believe all five of us fit in the "Monkey" car. The teacups are the one ride that ol' Dad has to sit out. Can't handle spinners like this...

    DAY 2 We got up bright and early this morning to go to Disneyland!! The parks opened each day at 8 a.m., but they would usually open the gates around 7:30. We could then enter Main Street or Buena Vista Street at that time. Always have to pay our respects to Mr. Disney. Had to stop at...

    Day 1 We arrived at our hotel the Anaheim Fairfield Marriott around 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Check in time wasn't until 4 p.m., but they let us do a pre-check in, and then took my cell phone number to call us to let us know when the room was ready. They had a locked closet in the lobby that...
