Off to California Adventure

This Day Was the BEST!
DAY 4

 
- FEW lines!
- FUN theme park!
- FANTASTIC luncheon with Ariel and other princesses!

Emmet practically sleeps with his backpack from Baja

Emmet & I have so much fun on our 1st ride - "Toy Story."  He shoots everything in sight!
Carlene & Eliza are having a ball, too.  They LOVE their 3-D glasses.  It's a great ride, but very popular.  It was smart to get in this line first thing.
In her Snow White dress, Eliza is in Heaven on her favorite ride!
The kids are excited about having the characters in the parks sign their autograph book.   Eliza starts out very bashful and Emmet says, "No Way!"


He agrees to have his photo take outside the roped off area.  :)

Here we go on a ride - Daddy/Daughter together

One of our favorites - "Little Mermaid" ride


Very cool scenery in Carz Land


Emmet is tired of all the photos as he explores the world underneath him.

Carlene and I really enjoyed the fun ride in our car with great scenery under waterfalls and through the canyons and tunnels....and fast!  Whooaah!  Hold onto your hats!!







 
We had a wonderful time at Ariel's Grotto at a Princess Luncheon.  Although we waited longer than we wanted, even with reservations, it was a wonderful time for us all!

We descended a spiral staircase to enter Ariel's Grotto, and attended a royal undersea banquet with Ariel and her friends. From the themed décor to the view of Paradise Bay through the windows, we were surrounded by imagery from under the sea.  

Eliza got a crown and the kids had coloring books to occupy their selves.


WOW!  Eliza gets a hotdog split so that it looked like an octopus. It is surrounded by fishy crackers!

Belle comes to visit us and she is happy to sign the autograph books.


Bye bye, Emmet - You are adorable!

Rapunzel is next - we loved her long hair!

Then comes beautiful Cinderella - we loved her!

Tiana appeared next. She stars in "The Princess and the Frog."


The kids are not shy anymore - they LOVE all the attention!


Dessert was fabulous!  Creme Brulet was my favorite.  The whole experience was fabulous!  Lunch, dessert, the princesses, the table setting.  Eliza asked why we had two forks.  HA!  Such a great memory!

I feel like a Princess myself!  Thank you to Sam's parents and to his sister, Becca.  We love you all!


Such a great musical!  We all LOVED it so much - better than the animated movie!!

HELP!  What was the name of this show?  It was so great!

We're getting used to this kind of life!
NEXT - we waited in line to see Anna and Elsa.  They were so very nice!  They took time to ask the kids questions and seemed to really care about them!


Time to end the day with ICE CREAM!!!!

...and Becca treated the kids to their favorite cookie.   Guess what Emmet chose?


TOMORROW - back to Disneyland!
