DISNEYLAND - Day 1

Back at Disneyland! It had been over a year since our last trip to Disneyland and we were so excited to visit again! We love it here! I would have to say that this trip to Disneyland was probably my most favorite. The weather was PERFECT - 80's during the day and the nights only required a light jacket. The flowers were beautiful and the crowds weren't too bad. We just had a really, really enjoyable time. We were not ready to come home when it was over. The Matterhorn was only open the first 2 days of our visit, so it was the first ride we visited! We went on it multiple times, as it is one of my favorite rides! It's kind of hard to see them, but there are a lot of blue and purple Delphiniums in bloom and they were beautiful!






This was our first visit to Disneyland since "It's a Small World" reopened. They had to dig out the channel and make it deeper since people have gotten "heavier" since the ride was built. The boats were scrapping bottom. They also made some changes inside. There are now Disney characters scattered throughout the ride - and it was fun trying to spot them.Here's Cinderella and some mice.


Brady and Gibson standing at the entrance of "Pirates of the Caribbean". Gibson has always like pirates, but he's now obsessed with them since this trip. He has proclaimed this his new favorite ride, as evidenced by the fact that we probably rode it 8-10 times.
If you need proof that we run ourselves ragged at Disneyland, Gibson actually fell asleep in the bathtub this night!

Love Thunder Mountain, too! I'm glad Gibson didn't drown in the bathtub--I can imagine he was pretty tired trying to keep up with his mom! Ha!
