Disneyland Part 2

Bright and early Tuesday morning we headed to Disneyland!
Here we are after parking in the Mickey and Friends parking lot ready to board the tram to the park!
We are there!

After entering the park we ran into lots of characters. Minnie's line was pretty short so we hopped in while Kenny got in the Mickey line!

Then we were off to Adventureland to the Jungle Cruise. Our tour guide was pretty funny and it was a calm, yet exciting, way to start our morning.
After riding Pirates of the Carribean we rode the train to Toon Town and Fantasyland.


Once we got to Fantasyland everyone watched the Princess Fantasy Faire show while I stood in line for Brayden to meet the princesses. It was well worth the 45 minute wait as she got to meet her favorite...Ariel! We also met Tiana and Jasmine!
Then we were off to "It's a Small World". Pretty much the same as I remember it from WDW many years ago, with a few updates! It was neat to see Disney characters thrown into the displays.
Grayson liked it!
Then we were off to Toon Town where we played in Goofy's Playhouse.
And met Goofy!
Before Grayson fell asleep we ate lunch, met Mickey at his house and went through Chip and Dale's treehouse (pretty lame...at least that is what Brayden told a few kids who were about to go inside). Afterward, Grayson and Lala rested back in the shade at Goofy's Playhouse while the rest of us rode Gadget's Go Coaster and Rodger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin (So glad we had a FastPass for this one. People were waiting 45 minutes to ride! Totally not worth the wait!)
Then we were back to Fantasyland for the Tea Cups!
On our way to Tomorrowland we ran into Peter Pan! I got in line for Brayden to meet Tinkerbell while they visited with Peter Pan...Kenny said he was very talkative and friendly!
Then Brayden hopped in line with me while everyone else got in line for Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters (in Kenny's opinion it was the best ride of the day).
After waiting for close to an hour we finally met Tinkerbell and Iridessa . Definitely worth the wait! Tinkerbell showed Brayden how to pose, so this is what she did all week!
Grayson perfected the cheese face while waiting for the parade to start!
We ran into the Morrow cousins right before the parade started!

After the parade we went back to the house and cooled off in the pool.


We headed back up to Disneyland that evening to meet up with the cousins. Grayson and Lala and Grumpy stayed home...it was going to be a late night for the rest of us!
Here we are on the train to Tomorrowland! We rode Buzz Lightyear again and Laura defeated us all!
We went back to the Rivers of America for the Fantasmic show. Kennan was a little wiped out...
Here's Mickey during the show. It was really great despite having a tree blocking some of the view!
Heading back to the house. It was 11:30 in California, which meant our bodies felt like it was 1:30am!!!

No one complained that night when we got home for bed!
