disneyland day one
So today my sister and I went to Disneyland and had a real good time. Whenever I bond with my little sis, I know I’ll be in for a treat. She kept saying throughout this past week how stoked she was to spend the WHOLE ENTIRE DAY with me and just me. I guess she misses me quite a bit. She hates how I’ve been working during our summer break.
Disneyland was hot and had too many kids for my taste. We scored on Space Mountain though, when an old Asian man and his grand-daughter handed us their Fast Passes. SM THREE TIMES! (: After that, we bounced over to California Adventure and were disappointed when California Screamin’ was down, as well as this other ride we wanted to go on. So instead we bummed around here and there (there’s really nothing to do at CA Adventure) and then decided to enter this interactive attraction. We walked in to find ourselves in a huge room with its walls made up of differently sized/shaped television screens showing random clips of the Disney movies we grew up watching. The montage was made up of scenes and songs from movies like “Sleeping Beauty”, “Aladdin”, “Hercules”, and so on. We sat on the floor and didn’t budge for about 30 minutes. I don’t know why, but I got a little emotional. Made me want to buy every Disney movie out there and rewatch them this weekend. I really wish that when my kids are growing up, they’ll have a taste for Disney movies and not be attached to video games and the like. Anyway, I think this and my sister and I providing voice-overs for Iago and Jafar in another interactive room were the highlights of my day.
They changed the fireworks show, too. My sister did some hustlin’ and grabbed us some sweet seats. (;
So for Day Two of our Disneyland adventures we are planning on hitting up: (1) Indiana Jones, (2) California Screamin’, (3) Grizzly Bear Rapids? (4) Splash Mountain, and (5) all the mini kids’ rides that we young adults have forgotten about.
