With the school year winding down, we made one last trip to the Happiest Place on Earth with our Disney friends this week. Our passes are blocked on Fridays, so we pulled the kids out of school after their state testing time period ended at 10:30.
Though we might be able to make another trip happen in the fall, I know these special days are winding down... it's been a great three-year run of fun.
We started our day in California Adventure, in the single-rider line for Radiator Springs Racers. Our large group got split at one point - what a sad-looking group of pretty girls! No reason to be sad - we all got to our rides in and done within 25 minutes.
Then we headed over to their favorite activity - running around playing tag in the Redwood Creek area.
We then went into Disneyland, and took the train around to Tom Sawyer's Island ... where the kids ran around and did the same thing they did in the Redwood Creek area.
Nearby, we came upon this adorable sight. Cora was hoping to pet one, and possibly take it home.
Then, most of our party left to check out an extended preview for the upcoming Toy Story 4 movie. Cora and Violet weren't interested, though, so we got a Dole Whip treat instead.
The castle has recently been revamped and repainted - much brighter now. We made our way to where are friends were, and rode Space Mountain using the single-rider system again. Then we had dinner with Elaine and Vivi while the rest were still in the Toy Story preview - that line was silly long!
Violet's main goal was to do a drawing at the Animation Academy, so she and I ran back to California Adventure and just made it in time. Cora stayed with Vivi and Elaine to ride Thunder Mountain, while our other friends used their fast passes for the Toy Story ride.
Then we all met up again for one last hurrah, on Guardians of the Galaxy.
Hands in the air! Everyone scream!
Then it was going on 9, we were in Anaheim, on a school night... all worth it though. Elaine and Vivian drove with us, so it was nice to have the extra company on the way home.
