Day 4 - Disneyland

Well... back to the big D. This year we were greeted by smaller crowds (although by human standards, still a huge crowd) fewer strollers, and big fun.

We made it in the gate by 11:00 am and stayed until closing at 8:00 pm, quite a day for a two and a three year old, but you know... "you have to get your money's worth."

We had great luck not waiting more than a couple of minutes for anything the boys could ride or that we could all ride as a family. We couldn't quite talk Oliver into riding the Matterhorn, but we did take them both on the Pirates of Caribbean. Having Callie with us was quite a help in taking turns with napping boys while mom and dad snuck in the roller coaster & tower of terror.

The boys were all smiles on the carousel, the storybook land ride, the zephyr, the bugs life rides, and dad and Oliver had a great duet on the teacups. We ate corndogs, bengal bbq, some delicious "loaded baked potato soup."

Disney is really something else. That many people, thousands of people, and they crank out good time after good time. We lost a bag at the end of the night and had to go back the next day to check the lost and found. No chance, right? Wrong, it was right there waiting for us.

Anyway - A couple of pics, with video to follow..









This is not a mistake, this is Oliver sticking it to us when we say "smile!"
