-Day 6 ~ Disneyland and California Adventure -

Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day!!! Holy Cow was it raining! Today we started out in California Adventure, to get first dibs on the Cars Fast Pass.  We then headed out for our rides, the first one was Toy Story 4D. We waited in line for 45 minutes to get on this ride and the ride itself lasted 5 minutes!!  I can't really complain too much though, because this was the longest we had to wait the entire trip.  After we got off the ride, we hid for cover because it was raining whales and elephants.  Lucky for us, the Toy Story gift shop sold ponchos, so we were all able to take cover.  We waited a little longer for the rain to die down the head out for everything else.  The little kids and myself headed for the carousel while everyone took their turn riding the California Screamin'.  Then Jen, McKenna, JoAnn, Rod, and Trey, went on Mickey's Fun Ferris Wheel. I don't know why they call it Mickey's FUN Ferris wheel because they said it was scary.  All of them talked so big about the Ferris wheel not being scary, but they were the crazy one's thinking they would dare attempt the swinging chair versus the non-swinging.  So needless to say, after they swung around twice, they were ready to get off and knowing that they will never do that again.

That afternoon while Jeremy and I took the little girls to get them out of the cold, hoping they would nap back at the room, (funny thing is that the only person that napped was Jeremy) the little girls just played and watched a little TV.  Meanwhile, Jenna, JoAnn, McKenna, and Trey headed to Disneyland to ride Space Mountain.  I guess the line was long, but they held out and rode it out.  Luckily for them, they were able to get a fast pass so they rode it twice.  McKenna and Trey loved the ride.

We ended up catching up with those four, spent some time riding a few rides in Disneyland before we headed back to California Adventure.  We timed it just right to watch the World of Color water show.  It was amazing, water, music, and animation on the water, it was truly awesome.  After the World of  Color show, we all headed back to Cars to use our Fast Passes for Racers.  I took Ally and Trey, while Jeremy and McKenna stayed back with Lottie.  We used the baby pass, so this gave us two more fast passes.  By this time, Lottie had completely had enough, so Rod and JoAnn took her back to the room so we all could go one more time together.

In all our running around today, we were only able to catch up with Flik, in the Bug's Life.

Today was successful in the amount of rides we rode.  They were Tower of Terror (which after a six churro bribery, Trey finally went on it once) Space Mountain, California Screamin, Toy Story 4D, It's Tough to be a Bug, Flik's Flyers, Ladybug Boogie, Tuck's Ride'em Boogie, King Tritons Carousel, Mator's Junkyard, Cars  Racers, Little Mermaid, Space Mountain, Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, Peter Pan, Snow White, Pinocchio.
