California Adventure
On Monday morning, we once again we're up at the crack of dawn to head to California Adventure. California Adventure is the newer of the two parks. It has Nemo, Frozen, Cars, Toy Story (most of it . . . some is in the Disneyland Park), Monsters, Inc., etc.The first ride we rode was the Radiator Springs Racers. There was a little bit of a wait, but it was so worth it. I don't have as many pictures from California Adventure. We didn't take out the big camera so all the pics were just on the phones.
One of my favorites! I love Sully!
We didn't quite shut the park down, but we got close. I think we were here about 12 hours, and our feet were just about done by that point.
Favorite Ride: Radiator Springs Racers - I think we all agreed on that.
Favorite Food: Ghirardelli hot fudge sundae
Favorite Area: Hollywood Land - the backdrop of the sky was incredible
Favorite Show (in both parks): Hands down, Aladdin, in California Adventure. It was awesome!
Favorite Park Overall: Andrew - California Adventure (this is the park for your kids - it's a Disney-Pixar wonderland); Patrick - Disneyland (I think); Me - Disneyland, no contest. It was far and above my favorite.
Drive Down the Coast and Through Cleveland National Forest
On Tuesday it was a lot cooler and rainy, and we were all "theme parked out" so we decided to take a scenic drive. We drove down the coast through Laguna Beach where I texted my reality show obsessed sister a bunch of random pictures that aren't internet worthy. Eventually, we ended up driving through Cleveland National Forest. It was really pretty and a nice change of pace after two insanely busy days.
This trip was something that we felt like we needed as a family after the crazy 6-7 months we've had. It hasn't all been bad. A lot has been good, but it has been insane. In addition, we are hopeful that this time next year we will have another little one at home, and a lot of our traveling will be on hold (at least for a while).
