Disneyland

Disneyland

Now that the kids appetites were whetted; we went back to the Magic Kingdom the next morning
The plan was for SGK to take Bella to the Princess makeover pavilion - a place where little girls get all done up as princesses; whilst I took Michelangelo to the more Manly "Jedi Training Academy"

Princess Pavilion

The Princess makeover has begun!
Like my little girl really needs to be made over in order to be a princess...

Jedi Training

Michelangelo did not want to participate :-(

Waiting for Autotopia

Autotopia is a ride where the kid gets to drive. There was a huge line, so we got one of the fast pass's and went off to kill 2 hours (A fast pass essentially lets you wait in line without actually being there)
By the time it came for us to actually go on Autotopia; Isabella was already zonked.

Getting stuffed on candy

Father and son waiting for the monorail
Michelangelo calls the monorail "The Rocket Train" because it looks like a rocket.

Can this princess feel the pea that she's sleeping on?

Barney Oldfield look out!

Home for a break

We took a mid-afternoon nap break and headed back to Hojo's

Lookout for that tree!


Too pooped to pop
Apparently my snoring was aiding Michelangelo's slumber

California Adventure

After our nap, we headed back to the park. This time we wanted to try out California Adventure, where neither SGK nor I had been before. To forestall complaints from the kids; we called it "A different part of Disneyland"

Wall*E!

Movie Stars!

Flying Bees inside a giant Orange
This is one of those rides where you are on a swing that spins around a post - but this time it's in a giant orange. Sometimes the old fashioned rides are the best.
