The California Adventure

This blogging thing is harder than it looks, especially when you are on the go from early to late at night. So with that here is a quick update of the last 3 days of our time in California.

We packed in as much as we could with a 3 day park hopper pass to the Disneyland Resort. Jumping from park to park was easy and we were able to use fastpasses to our advantage. The parks were super crowded but we managed to everything we wanted and more!

Here's the top 5 highlights in no particular order (because we couldn't agree when we voted on them!)

California Screamin' - awesome roller coaster. We went on it 5 times in one day. Sarah's and Kelly's favourite.

Star Tours - this is our first experience on it since they made it 3D.

Soarin over California - it's better barefoot.

Indiana Jones - wild crazy fun ride. Matt's favorite.

World Of Colour Show - amazing water, lights, fire and movie clip show at paradise pier. Edie's favourite

Other memorable moments include getting drenched on Splash Mountain, eating turkey legs, churros, and Mickey shaped ice cream, and running into our neighbors occasionally. We survived Tower of Terror (Edie and Sarah - just barely). It's a small world and Pirates of the Carribean were also great.

No time to post more pics but here's a few

  1. Jason does tell me that a travel blog is a lot of work :). Thanks for updating, though, glad you're having a good time so far! Have a great boat ride, too.

  2. I was going to second that thought about a travel blog being really tough, but since Jason did via Sandra, I am going to third it!
    I want you to know that your pictures made me re-live my excitement all over again! I wish I was smiling there with you!
    Yay for Soarin' Over California and Star Tours - my faves!!!
