The morning we leave for Disneyland has come. We have spent the last six days in Arizona visiting my brother-in-law and doing some site-seeing. We spent some time in Phoenix where we visited our first water park,

^^^^ I wish I had read the previous comment first before the one above me! The FP line for RSR is always MASSIVE that I don't even bother. Are you really going to wait in that line?

 

[coachwnh]

Line went fast. Off to TOT!

All I can say about the CA version of TOT is awesome. Was not expecting that. Very cool!

I really like Flo's and Cocina Cucamonga. What are you in the mood for?

You'll get a discount for both quick and table service. You just don't get discounts on snacks.

Good grief!
And here I am already 5+ pages behind...AGAIN...!
Time to play catch-y-up before I get even further behind...yet again, again.....

 

[donaldtoo]

Love the pics at the Grand Canyon!
Haven't been there since '75. Or, was it '74?
Anyhoo, WAY too long. May need to think about planning a road trip back out west. Although we're originally from Texas, we lived in San Jose, Ca. from '68-'76 and used to road trip back to Texas to see family and friends every summer. We would vary the route from time to time and got to see SO much of the western U.S.A....AWESOME times...!!!

I was a bit nervous as the boy explored!!

Too funny! The moment I saw that pic it reminded me of one of my younger brothers. Right up to the edge...cliff, mountain, dam, whatever. And, mom just enjoyed it sooooo much...!

 

[donaldtoo]

The place is absolutely amazing. Pictures only do so much! It's a must see in person!!!

Yes! DEFINITELY a lot more Grand in person...!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

Currently in Victorville CA

Former home of the Roy Rogers Museum! Yes, sadly it's now closed.
Just one of the fun little places we visited on one of those road trips to Texas and back!
"Holidayyy ROOOoooOOOoooAAAaaad...!"

It's amazing how this part of the USA is so different then back east. Gorgeous drives!!

Sounds good! Will you be going across to Disneyland today, or will you stay in California Adventure the entire time?
