or as the locals like to call it, a trip to disneyland. yep, i was dragged up early to beat the traffic. julie had to work so vince let me tag along with him, arriving just as the park opened. i've been a few times before, years ago, so i came prepared. sunscreened, sneakered and hatted, i was ready for the day ahead. first stop, tomorrowland....
...and space mountain. a roller-coaster inside a big dome (kinda reminds me of the black hole at alton towers, mom & ains). from there we moved onto star tours which was hosted by c3po.
after spending about 3 hours in line for some water (this is for you vince) we made it to fantasyland and the matterhorn bobsleds. yeeehhhawwww.... i'm pretty sure we fell into the boats at the pirates of the caribbean experience to cool down, then wandered through new orleans square.
at some stage i was attacked on the street by a great whale but i forget exactly where. luckily enough vince put down my camera long enough to save me.
i snapped a few other photos while wandering around the park.
i remember seeing the teacups on the wonderful world of disney on sunday evenings when i was small. ahh....
here's that "hunk" i was sent out to find... ha!! then onto... big thunder mountain.
sometime about now we had hit all the high points of disneyland so moved across to the adjoining california adventure park. newly opened since my last visit. we watched a 3d muppet show then decided to take in the twilight zone tower of terror before lunch. good thing to...
it was one of those rides that takes you up to the top and drops you. a few times and a little unexpectedly. i was laughing so hard i was crying.
the last ride of the day was the grizzly river run - needless to say there was a lot of wet crotches after that ride. ha! to finish the day on a high note we succumbed to the sweet temptation of frozen chocolate bananas. ahh.... thanks for it all vince.
