Disneyland 2010

Triston has been watching the Disney channel a lot lately and has been talking about Mickey Mouse, so I decided that he would have a fun time this year if we went back to Disneyland. We were fortunate to have a free 4 night stay at the Redlion, so I decided to use it. This is Triston's third time I going to Disneyland, I would love to make it a tradition, but I guess we will have to see.

July 5th 2010

For our 1st day we decided to go over and see Tinker Bell at Pixie Hollow, because Shara was with us. The line wasn't to long, but Pixie Hollow was pretty small. They only had 3 fairies; Tinkerbell, Terance and Fawn. Triston was a little scared of Tinkerbell, but we were able to get some cute pictures. After Pixie Hollow we decided to go to Buzz Lightyear ride. Triston loved it. He had so much fun shooting his gun. He didn't do to bad for a 3 year old. We then decided to test our driving skills at Auto Topia. Triston and Shara were excited to get their drivers license. Triston loves to drive, unfortunately he needs some practice steering, he almost popped out of the car five times because he couldn't drive straight. What a crazy driver!
We then waited in the longest line ever at Finding Nemo's submarine ride. Triston wasn't very patient, he ran ahead several times and I almost lost him. He finally did better after Aunt Kate gave him a Mickey Mouse sucker. Finally got on the submarine and saw Nemo and his friends, the kids had so much fun.
We were ready for lunch and there as a parade starting in an hour, so we choose some prime benches on the parade route. After Triston ate his sandwich I decided to buy him his favorite food "Kok corn." While we were waiting this friendly duck came over and eat popcorn right out of my fingers.

Triston didn't last long, he passed out before the Celebration street party started. But we had fun anyways. We saw a lot of characters in the street party, to bad Triston missed it.

After the Street Party we went over to the Winnie the Pooh ride. We ended up going into this shop after the ride and the kids saw these stripped treats so we bought them. Triston had a Tigger tail and Shara had the Cheshire cat tail. The tails were made of marshmallows covered in Carmel and colored chocolate. They were pretty sweet, so we were only able to eat about half of each tail.

We ended up stopping in this shop by Splash Mountain and Triston put on some Mickey ears and picked some out for me so I decided to buy him his first pair of Mickey ears. He was so cute. For Shara we bought her a princes crown, she looked so pretty. For Katelyn's souvenir she decided to get this hat, it looked really cute on her.

We ended up going in Tarzan's Tree house. It was a lot of work, so Triston and I only went up once and Katelyn and Shara went up again. After the tree house we decided to go watch the magic makers fireworks above the castle. Then we went straight over to Fantasmic in front of rivers of America. I saw Fantasmic last year, but Katelyn and Shara have never seen it. It was pretty cool. After the show we decided to call it a night and headed back to the hotel. We were exhausted but had a fun day.
