Disneyland Day 1 took us over to California Adventure for the day. It was SO NICE and SO NOT BUSY.
We walked on almost every ride!
First up….
Toy Story Mania.
How can you not like this ride?
We rode the SWINGING Ferris Wheel afterwards.
{My FAVORITE!}
My family humors me and rides it even though they’d rather ride on the carts that don’t swing, instead.
We ate breakfast at our very favorite spot:
Flo’s V8 Cafe in Cars Land.
It’s a MUST!
Their breakfast chicken tamale + stuffed banana french toast is beyond words DELISH!
I promise.
London’s 1st grade teacher just so happened to be their with her family as well so we got to hang with them for a bit….
How cool is that?
London was on cloud 9!
My kids still enjoy Bugs Land which makes me really happy.
{I however cannot STAND the bumper cars. They barely even move!}
While I was watching them BUMP – – I spotted these Mickey ears. I fell in love. They are DONUT Mickey ears and they have my name written ALL over them.
Speaking of fattening foods that I LOVE – – –
Corndogs were on tap for lunch time.
Seriously – – it does not get better than this!
And since EVERY meal at Disneyland deserves a dessert – –
We got churros {for the boys} and a
Ghiradelli Mint Chocolate Chip brownie sundae {for me!}.
YUM!
Grant requested to ride SCREAMIN all by himself afterwards.
He rode it WITH ME first thing in the morning and seemed to think I screamed WAY TOO MUCH so he wanted to go at it solo this time. Sigh.
We watched the PIXAR parade.
{This will always be one of my faves.}
How bugged was I that a grown adult was standing IN FRONT OF THE KIDS with her big ole Mickey ears blocking the view?
Really bugged.
We pooped out in Cars Land later that night and then ended the day with dinner at the ESPN ZONE in Downtown Disney.
The boys were in heaven and I was just glad to be able to take off my shoes and rub my feet together.
There’s NO TIRED like DISNEYLAND tired.
Am I right?!
