Ali got to meet her favorite princess, Ariel. The girls also met Belle, Aurora, Tiana, Cinderella, and Snow White. The other characters they met were Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Pluto, the Fairy Godmother, Pooh, Tigger, and Eeyore. Even though Lydia knew before the trip that they were people in costumes, she seemed to forget that and just enjoy meeting each character. Ali believes she really met Ariel. Bryant smiled and giggled a lot when he met Pooh, Tigger, and Eeyore.
Besides meeting these great Disney characters, we went on many rides. Lydia's favorite was teacups. Blech. Tim and I had to switch off taking them because it made us sick. Ali loved Splash Mountain. I think she went 5 times! She likes roller coasters...Lydia doesn't. Ali was barely tall enough to make it onto rides like this.
Bryant liked the carousel and It's a Small World rides. He was a really good sport on the trip considering we were there for about 9 hours each day and he only got naps as we went.
Tim didn't like much of Disneyland until we went to California Adventures the third day. We all loved Soaring Over California and the big ferris wheel, but he also went on California Screamin' and the Tower of Terror. We went to Bug's Life while he did those.
My favorite part was watching the magic through my children's eyes. We had such a great time! My next blog will be about going to SeaWorld and San Diego.
What is your favorite thing at Disneyland?
Oh I'm so dang jealous, I NEED a Disneyland trip. We went last year about this time, I could go every year!! There is just something about that place that really is so magical!! And it is so much more fun when you have kids!! As for my favorite thing, I don't know if I have one, but I do have to admit, there is something about a Disneyland churro, to die for!! Glad you guys had fun!!
ReplyDeleteThose kids are just the cutest!!!! I love the Tink story. SO CUTE!!
ReplyDeleteI love the big rides, but O doesn't, so we went on Indiana Jones and Pirates many times when we went. But it's been 8 years since we've been. California Adventures was really fun too.
What a fun trip! We are hoping to take our boys in the Fall...I'm SO excited. I cannot wait to see their little faces! We'll have to go to dinner one of these weeks and you can give us all the details...
ReplyDeleteUm, the churros, are my favorite things at Disney Land, I know, really lame, but I have only been there once!
ReplyDeleteMy two oldest don't really like roller coasters. That is very frustrating since I love them. My third loves them, but is still too short for most of them. Once he is old enough we'll have a grand time. My favorite thing about Disneyland is the ambience!
