Meeting Characters

Here are a few of the characters we met.
At the Princess Fantasy Fair we saw 3 princesses. When we got in line Tiana, Bell, and Ariel were there, but the princesses changed out right before we reached them.
Aurora
Christmas Mickey

Duffy Mickey's teddy bear

Jasmine and Aladdin

We met tons of other characters too. I was trying to upload photos when a box popped up telling me I've exceeded my upload photo limit. Apparently when you upload to a blog everything is automatically put in a picasa account-which I was unaware I had. It is now full. I don't know what exactly this means for the future of my blog. I will have to research it more tomorrow, but for now, I'm going to bed.

Sleeping Beauty's Castle

We got a lot of fun shots of the castle. I just decided to just post a bunch since I like them all.

California Adventure

I originally asked Allie to stand by the telephone booth. She was confused and didn't know what I meant. I said that red thing. She went over there, but she thought the phone booth on the right was more fun because she could go inside. I had to explain what a phone booth was for and how in the really old days nobody had a cell phone. It is crazy how something so ordinary to me is already so obsolete that my kids don't even know what I am talking about.

Happy to be at Disney

Getting some cuddle time while Daddy and Kayla ride on Screamin'

For lunch one day, Allie chose this Mickey head pretzel.

Daddy and Kayla posing with part of Screamin' in the background. All those white tracks are Kayla's favorite ride. They rode 7 times!

This street sweeper added a rubber band to turn his broom into a paintbrush. A little water, and he showed his talent of drawing some characters-Donald and Goofy

Mickey Mouse

Some Toy Story 3 toys we picked up on our trip.

We were all sad to learn that Grizzly River Run was down for maintenance, but the girls still wanted a picture with the big bear.

The entrance to California Adventure. It is under going a major renovation to make it look like what Walt saw when he first arrived in San Fransisco so many years ago.

Good thing we never saw Cruella A talking Mr. Potato Head

A Bug's Land

Flik's Flyers

Francis' Ladybug Boogie-This ride is basically the teacups. Except here it spins totally on your own so you can't control it. It is a little much for me, but the girls loved it so I took them a couple of times.

Heimlich's Chew Chew Train-A cute caterpillar ride through giant leaves, cookie boxes, watermelon, and past giant candy corn.

Tuck and Roll's Drive'em Buggies

When you are the size of a bug, even ornaments can be HUGE.

The Little Mermaid's Undersea Adventure

Allie couldn't wait to go on the new Ariel ride. So Monday morning it was one of the first rides we went on after entering California Adventure.
It was a nice calm and very cute ride that everybody enjoyed.

We definitely enjoyed this ride a lot since it was one of Allie's favorites, Caitlyn enjoyed all the bright colors and fun music, and there was very little line due to how fast they move people.
