We did not have a plan for the day. We walked down to the parks and saw the long line up at Disneyland, so headed into California Adventure instead. Kim, Joanna and Deka had never been to California Adventure, and it's been a few years since Hubby and I were there.
The big rides/shows at CA are the World of Colour and Toy Story Mania. We've seen neither. At Disney World the queues for Toy Story Mania have always been to long. So we headed right to Toy Story Mania at rope drop and we still ended up in a 45 minute lineup. It was worth it. We like interactive games, even if hubby always beats me. My accuracy is better, but his score is higher, how does that work?
Our day at our California Adventure consisted mostly of Joanna yelling OMG, We're going to die, Is thing going to flip or just plain screaming. She wasn't very keen on the ferris wheel with moving baskets or on the Tower of Terror (a random, dropping elevator ride). I don't know what was more fun. The rides or listening to Joanna.
I particularly like the above photo. Hubby, Kim and I look like we're just hanging out, Deka is making sure her hair is perfect and Joanna is hanging on for dear life!
I won't bore you with all the details but we managed to get round most of the rides in CA - Toy Story Mania, Mickey's Fun Wheel, Silly Symphony Swings, Golden Zephyr, Soarin', Monsters Inc, Tower of Terror and we managed to fit in the Aladdin show, lunch and some shopping. We skipped Grizzly River Rapids 'cause it was too bloody cold for a water ride. Oh and hubby and Kim met a famous (?) pilot. I'm not sure we ever knew Minnie Mouse is a pilot.
