Our Final Day at Disneyland - Part 1

We started out our final day at California Adventure. It's a smaller park with some more recent characters. We quickly found Flick's Faire which had more age appropriate rides for the girls.

We rode the Ladybugs (can't remember the official name) and it was a lot like the Mad Tea Party, but jerked you around more when it changed directions. The girls loved it, but I could have passed on that one.

The Chew-Chew train was great! You heard a story as you traveld through a half-eaten watermelon, giant animal crackers and candy.



We had heard from everyone that Toy Story Midway Mania was a must, so we braved a 30ish minute wait to check it out. It was really cool, but probably more so for the grown ups. You were in these cars with a video game like controller. It would pull up to different targets to shoot out and score points. The girls couldn't master the controllers, but I thought it was really fun.


After that, we went on a different carousel ride and then headed to the hotel for naps. Lolly and I had grand plans of staying for the 9 o'clock fireworks and then the 10:30 Fantasmic show that night, so we knew we needed our rest.

I'll try to update later with the pictures from the Electrical Parade - it was so cool! I don't really know how else to describe it.
