Disney Diary Four

August 9th, 2003

I’m dizzy. The vacation is over and I feel as though I need another one just to recover. Five days at the park, four of them from dawn to dusk and one full day of shopping. Throw in the 7 hour drive home with a broken AC in a god damn new car and that makes one vomit inducing week.

Lucky for me I didn’t have to ride the tea cups as that for sure would have caused me to toss a weeks worth of salad.

Dizzy Cups

At one point during her second time on the tea cups, Autumn asked Mommy if they could spin the other way as she was getting dizzy. No shit! I hate those things, argh!

The last day at the park was very “intense” as we tried to get on as many rides as we could, plus some that we didn’t try yet like “Splash Mountain”. Thankfully I was able to secure some fast pass tickets that morning for the ride so we all got to ride it (minus Aiden). I didn’t remember the ride being so long. After finishing Fantasy Land and Mickey’s Toon Town in Disneyland, we “hopped” on over to California Adventure Park to finish our trip. We watched Playhouse Disney Live on Stage (yeah… ), attended Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Play It (didn’t get to play on stage… boo), rode the Grizzly River Run twice and the girls went on Soarin’ Over California which I guess made them both a little ill.

Overall visiting the parks was a lot of fun and I’m looking forward to doing it again since we all know what to expect now. I’m sure by the time we actually go again Aiden will be old enough to ride on some of the kiddie rides which should make it a lot more fun for him. I will say he was a good trooper hanging out in his stroller for 6 days, most babies probably wouldn’t like that so much.

I’ll be posting the whole photo album later, probably tomorrow. I’m just too tired to go through each photo one by one.
