Disneyland: Day 3

Saturday was an early entrance day for those who stay on Disney property so we were in the park when the gates opened at 7am! It wasn't raining yet though so we loved it!
We started out at the Astro Orbiter and the kids rode it 3 times because no one was waiting. Then we went to the Matterhorn and Alice in Wonderland. The teacups weren't working. So we headed out to Toon Town. The kids got to see Chip and Dale, Mickey's house and ride Gadget's Go Coaster. Tanner was a little too small so he enjoyed playing in all the cars in Toon Town instead.


Tanner and Daddy.

Tanner playing in the cars while we waited for the roller coaster ride to end.

Then we took a break and went to Minnie and Friend's Breakfast with more characters.


Tigger and Captain Hook were hitting each other with a balloon. Zack loved it! Also Tigger got one of out balloons that went to the ceiling.


Tanner didn't want to do anything with the characters but he eventually gave Tigger props and touched elbows.


Tigger posed with the kids too.


Pooh bear was there too. I love that Caleb was so in love with Pooh and Tanner wanted nothing to do with him. He even tried to push him away.


Eeyore was a favorite of the kids too. We kept trying to get all the kids in the picture.


Minnie was there of course too.


Also Max, Goofy's son, was there. Tanner like him the best. He played peek-a-boo with him. Jessi like him because he had pink shoe laces.

After breakfast it was raining again, so we geared up and went to the Rocky Mountain Railroad. It is a different experience riding that in the rain. We then decided to dry out a little and went to California Adventure again to see Aladdin's Show.
Before the show we had time to go on Souring, twice, then off to the show. It was really good, and the kids really enjoyed it. And the best part was when we came out the sun was shining!!!
We then went over to Monster's Inc and then to get some lunch. Lunch took a long time to get and eat and by the time we were done, the rain was back again.
We decided to split up and those without kids went off the those with kids went to Toy Story Mania. It was really cool. If the line hadn't been 40 minutes, we would have ridden it again. After that MJ wasn't feeling really well so we took out kids back to the hotel and MJ took a nap. Again, Tanner had already napped. While we were at the hotel the rain stopped again.
After MJ's nap we went back to California Adventure and rode Kind Triton's Carousel then ran over to Bug's Life again and hit Heimlich's Chew Chew Train, twice, and the Drive'em Buggies again before meeting up with everyone again for dinner. MJ and his dad took the kids on Soaring again while we were ordering dinner but we were all done and their food was cold before they were done.
Then we headed back to the hotel again to put the kids down for bed in the adjoining rooms. MJ's parents stayed at the hotel so the rest of us could go back to the park. We were able to ride Indiana Jones before MJ was really not feeling well and we made it back to hotel before he through up. To say the least we didn't get to enjoy our kid free time as much as we would have like but the kids stayed in MJ's parent's room that night so that we could at least get a good night's sleep.
