Vacation to Disneyland and Califorrnia Adventure- May 15&16

The day after my graduation we headed to San Diego/Anaheim for a mini vacation. Kevin just graduated ALS and I just finished school. Needing a vacation was an understatement!

Since my Dad and grandparents came out for my graduation and Noah's birthday, they came along as well. The first day we were there was on a Sunday. We decided to go to the Magic Kingdom because they only had fireworks during the weekend. Unfortunately, it was crazy cold and windy which they canceled. However, that didn't stop us from having fun. We got there when they first opened and rode EVERY single ride Noah could ride. Noah had such a blast! It melted my heart to see how much fun she was having. When it got dark, Disneyland had a "Fantasmic" water show and by the time we found a perfect spot to sit Noah was passed out from her bubble gun in one hand and her Jessie doll in the other. After a long day, we were exhausted and readyto head back to the hotel.

The next day we headed to California Adventure. When we got there the sun was shining and the temperature was about 75 degrees! It was great compared to the weather at Magic Kingdom. The first place we went was into Playhouse Disney for a show that Noah just loved! She danced and clapped her hands the WHOLE time! She was too cute to explain. However, when the show ended and went outside the weather had changed... It was now about 57 degrees and cloudy.. We bundled up and pressed on! My dad and Kevin went to ride the Tower of Terror while my grandparents and I took Noah to It's a Bug's Life. She rode every ride in that part of the park! When Kevin and Dad found us we headed on and rode more rides! Her favorites were Toy Story that my whole family rode and the moving ferris wheel (which Noah screamed like a mad women on! It was too funny but she loved it.) Since we got to California Adventure kind of late, time had gotten away from us and was almost time for closing, but the last show they put on was the World of Color which was also a water show like at Disneyland. We had to watch from behind the water show, that's right behind it. Therefore, everything we seen was opposite from what everyone else saw. Reason being is, we didn't try to get tickets until last minutes even though they were free and ran out of room. Our fault, but it should be first come first serve on seating, I think! We were FREEZING by the time it was over and just wanted to get in our warm car and hop into bed!


Getting ready for Toy Story ride! Lol we all had a blast!
