Disney Trip - California Adventure

The next day we went to Disney's California Adventure.

We had a great time and the new Cars Land was awesome.

 The Redwood Creek Challenge Trail.

It is based on the movie "Up" since the boy in

the movie was a boy scout.  Here they can

climb and swing and look for clues, etc.

 They were celebrating the Chinese New Year so we

got to see Geishas and a parade with the Chinese

dragons and everything was decorated with lanterns.

It looked pretty cool.

 Cars Land.  It was like stepping into the movie.

 

Waiting in line for over an hour for the new Radiator

Springs Racers ride in Cars Land.  The lines are

always so long, they have people going around

selling snacks to you while you wait.  It was 

a awesome ride and worth the wait.

Hayley had to have her picture in front of the 

window with actual costumes from the ABC show

"Once Upon A Time".  It is one of her favorites.

The Hollywood Tower of Terror.

While Tim, Hannah and I were going on the Hollywood 

Tower of Terror ride, Hayley and Parker got to see

the Pixar Parade.

 I took a picture of the picture of us on the way down

in the Hollywood Tower of Terror ride.  It was a blast 

though Hannah kept screaming so loud in my ear.

There we are in the top row on the right.

Disneyland Trip - February 2013

We finally made it to Disneyland after promising Parker we would

go for about two years.  It had been almost 12 years since

we had been with the girls so it was kind of like Hannah's 

first time too as she didn't remember much from her first 

visit.  We spent three days there, not counting the traveling 

days and had an amazing time.  Disneyland never disappoints.

We stayed at the Best Western Courtesy Inn.  It

was a nice, clean hotel with adjoining rooms which

was nice with the kids. 

Enjoying the room after a long drive.

Day 1 at Disneyland.

On the tram ride to the park.

 Walking down Main Street. We are

finally here.

Our first ride of the day, the Pirates of the

Caribbean.  Always my favorite.

 The Haunted Mansion.

 The sailing ship, Columbia.  Hayley wanted to 

ride on it but it was closed when we were there.

 Darth Vader made an appearance. 

Parker loved seeing the Jedi Training Academy.

 The Storybook Canal ride.

 Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.  Always a lot of fun.

 

The Jungle Cruise.

 

Tarzan's Tree House.

 Hayley loved the treehouse.  Disney's Tarzan

 is one of her favorite movies and she said she

could live in it.

 Sleeping Beauty's castle all lit up at night.

A beautiful sight.
