Trip Report The Summer Adventure Continues....Our Live Disneyland Report Begins!

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,

Tower of Terror

The idea of the ride is the same as WDW, but the ride itself is different. Awesome!

Waiting for our turn (which didn't take long. In fact, nothing took long!!!!!)

After TOT, we rode Monsters and Soarin'. Again, no wait. It was almost 10:30 and we were now getting hungry and decided on a late breakfast at Flo's V8 Cafe. So it was back to CarsLand!

What I find amazing about CA weather is this: We entered Soarin' under complete cloud cover. We exited after 15 minutes to clear skies!!!!

Brayden loves Disney history, so we checked out the Blue Sky Wine Cellar

It has trivia games and a preview of the new Fantasy Fair in Disneyland. Really looking forward to that tomorrow!

Caught Minnie's Fly Girls as we were heading back to the resort


DSC07277 by coachwnh, on Flickr

The CMs asked me if I could fly anywhere today where would I go. I said, Alaska. My family said that was a lame answer. I guess I could have been more exotic.

Here is the star!

I am loving your live TR! It's making me super jealous that you're having an amazing time in DL and I'm stuck at work; also having the most amazing luck!! Your TR is helping me add more and more things to my bucket list!! Your daughter is beautiful and your son is so handsome! I can't wait to continue and have a great time!!

 

[Californian Elitist]

You are amazing with the updates and photos! We really appreciate it.

I have a number of nicknames for Mickey's Fun Wheel. I call it "Mickey's Death Wheel", "Mickey's Wheel of Terror" and "Mickey's Not-so Fun Wheel." I'm not a fan of that ride and I can see your daughter isn't either. I hope she wasn't too scared!

Cool beans for your son loving Disney history!

Really, Alaska? Lol!

I should have known this was a different kind of ride when Madelyn saw the barf bags

I should have known this was a different kind of ride when Madelyn saw the barf bags

Did Madelyn get sick or was she just scared? Was Brayden scared as well?

I guess you would have never known if you didn't try it.
