It's Halloween Time at Disneyland!


It's Halloween Time at Disneyland! This was another quick weekend trip for us--we're trying to get the most out of our season passes before they expire in November. We got up early on Saturday morning (4:30am) and got to Disneyland around lunchtime. As soon as we had parked and taken the tram to Downtown Disney, Cole started complaining her feet hurt and sure enough she had a big blister on her heel. A pair of $15 dollar Minnie Mouse socks and some bandaids and we were ready to go!
We started our day in California Adventure Park. We rode Monsters Inc. and then headed to Pierce's favorite ride Muholland Madness. Clint, Pierce and Cole rode it 2 times and then we went to Andrea's favorite ride, Grizzly Rapids. We always seem to pick the busiest weekends, we had to wait over an hour in line. Clint and Cooper played in the playground while we waited and waited!





That's all the rides we got in before we headed to our hotel for a nap and then some dinner. We came back to Disneyland later that night but had missed the fireworks (big disappointment) and everthing was so crowded that we ended up leaving without riding anything because the waits were up to an hour and a half long!

The next day turned out to be better. We got to the park right when it opened and Pierce and Cole and Clint rode Haunted Space Mountain and Andrea and Cooper waited in line for Pixie Hollow so Cole could meet Tinkerbell and Fawn. Cole was so excited to be the first one to meet the faries.






Then we hit our favorite rides...The Matterhorn, Pirates of the Carribean, Haunted Holiday Mansion, Indiana Jones (our first time since Pierce is just now big enough), Jungle Cruise, Splash Mountain, and Space Mountain one last time.



We rode Space Mountain one too many times as we were all motion sick on the ride home. At one point we had to pull over as Cole lost her lunch into a paper bag. Luckily she told us she was sick and she got it all into the bag so we didn't have to clean the whole car like usual!
