Our Trip - Day 3

Our third day in California was once again early due to Brady and his non sleep on vacation, but we were all eager to get to Disneyland early. We decided to spend the day devoted to Disneyland. We were expecting some crowds, but not too many people. We quickly found out that it was spring break for southern California. So it was packed! I was a little disappointed, but we just did as much as we could.

It was an amazing day so I could not blame everyone else for wanted to spend it in such a magical place. First was a ride thanks to Holly the horse down Main Street. A quick ride, but still fun.

We then got some cute photos in front of sleeping beauty's castle, and walked through her castle.

We headed to a ride to get fast passes. (They allow you to get special free tickets to come back at a later time and skip ahead in line, really much quicker.) We then found the Buzz Lightyear ride. It was lots of fun, and Brady loved it. 

Next we had reservations for breakfast with Minnie. It was quite overpriced, but really I think it was worth it.

Such a nice way to meet many of the characters, and Brady loved it. 

I was pretty excited too! 

After breakfast the  boys went back to use their fast passes on the autopia car ride. I was not able to ride this one, but that was fine because it looked really bumpy. Brady was so excited that he got to drive.

Next we waited in our longest line of our trip, for the finding Nemo Sub ride. About 45 minutes.

It was worth it, but we all started to get a little restless. Pretty amazing ride though.

Next was one of my two must do's. The teacups. Jeremy decided to sit out and take pictures instead. We did not too much spinning, but still enough to have fun!

We did a storybook boat ride that was a little boring and at this point Brady was sleepy, so we thought we would skip lunch since we had a large late breakfast. We were going to get ice cream and head back to the hotel for a nap. Brady was so tired that he fell asleep while in line for ice cream. We skipped ice cream, I did a little shopping, and we went back to have naps at the hotel. 

After naps, clothing changes, and an early dinner at the hotel, we were back to Disneyland. First stop was the Dumbo ride. This is the one thing I had to do. I have wanted to ride that ride since a was a little girl. It was even better than I thought it would be. It was at sunset, it was with my most favorite people, and it was awesome. I got pretty teary actually. Blame the crying on the hormones, but it was one of my favorite parts of the trip. 

The night ended with Pirates of the Caribbean (awesome ride), ice cream, Fantastmic show, Haunted Mansion, and fireworks. I was so awesome, and we only got to do a little bit of everything. We could spend so much more time there, and we can not wait to go back!
