Disneyland

We finally made it back to Disneyland and most importantly....we were able to get on the Nemo ride without a 3.5 hour line! YEAH! The line was less than 30 minutes.

The kids had a great time and Cody found a new enjoyment there. The last time we went over the summer, he could care less about the rides. This time, while at California Adventures, he really enjoyed the Bug's Life area. He rode the Heimlich Train 2 times in a row and yelled at me when we got off. His favorite ride was the Dancing Ladybugs (equivalent to the Tea Cup rides only not as long of a ride). He rode it 4 times. Before the ride, he would sit there with a blank expression. As soon as the ride would start, his eyes would light up and a huge smile would come across his face. He would occassionally clap and throw his hands in the air with excitement. It was fun to watch him.

DJ's favorite ride of the day was Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. He rode that about 3 times. He even let out a "WOOHOO" every now and then during the ride.

This is definitely the time to go visit Disneyland and California Adventures. The only line we came across was the Nemo ride, but even that was less than 30 minutes. DJ was even impressed with the lack of lines. He kept saying "wow...this is sooo much better than last time!"

Oh, even Scooter came along this time. He stayed in the kennels there. It was his 6th birthday so we figured he should come along. He wasn't too happy about it. I think he kind of hoped he would get to go in the park. He did enjoy the tram ride over there, though!

Here are some pictures from the day:
