So California Adventures! Day 2 in the parks, day 3 here. We started with a buffet breakfast, that is the way to go in my mind on trips like this. Now first thing in the park we were told get your fast pass for cars. Well we didn't, we simply braved the 45 minutes line for the ride. Did it live up to the hype. Yup. It has both the Disney story elements and the speed of a good ride. AND they did the set really well. At this point it is cars or Indy for my top ride. On the way out of Carsland we did Maters tow. It is more a kids ride but gotta get them all in.
Then we kinda wandered around to see the park. We were going to do the Monsters inc ride when they guy gave us a Buddy pass?? For some reason we got to line cut, not complaining about that but a few people ahead of us wondered WTF. Also it is a decent ride but it is just a story ride. We then did flics flight which is another kiddie ride. Ariel's adventure is a good story ride, a lot of detail. However I am noticing kid rides skip the climax. We don't see Ursala go down, just her waving her fist in the background. Then the wedding.
Toy story mania is a great ride. If you like games. It doesn't tell the story and it doesn't whip you around but it is carny games. I lost but got alot better when I realized you can just keep pulling the string. How someone scored over 435000 I don't know. Woulda done it again but the damn line as insane! Then we did goofys flight school. I failed, I don't like coasters. I guess my girlfriend thought it was sheer terror on my face. The drops are okay but I wont be doing the stupid hair pin turns again.....
We lined up for Mickeys fun wheel, gonna do the one that doesn't move. But my girlfriend said no to that. She is not a fan of heights. We did hop on the Golden zephyr? Which goes surprisingly high. From ground it looks tame, in the air it seems like your getting height. But for some reason I can deal with it much better than goofys damn sky school!
Mid day is hot in Cali. Or more so later afternoon. We were both pretty hot and tired. So we wandered the pier a bit. We got fast passes for cars at night because now we have been told it is pretty sweet at night. Do that ride once it is dark it is awesome!! But that is off track. We headed out to Disney downtown. They have everything. Anything you might want to buy is there. If you have the money. Also lets talk about dressing. Not yummy ranch but clothing on people. My thoughts are the shortness of shorts should be based on age. I know it is hot (the temperature, perverts) but teen girls should not be wearing what strippers start the dances in. Between butt and knee until 18! Also this applies to dudes. Guts should remain covered!!! Lets just use the rule its not a night club or your backyard dress like that!
Our meal was at the House of Blues. I am meh on that. The food was decent, the drinks were a bit pricey the atmosphere was awesome. More for a bar than a dinner though. But the Voodoo shrimp is to die for!! After we wandered and shopped some more. I didn't buy anything yet. For some reason I thought I would find a deal, maybe it was the vodka with dinner. Dessert was cones from the cozy cone motel in carsland. Dipped cones are the bomb, and Disney ice cream is like DQ. We sat with a nice young family and waited for carsland to light up. It was worth it, that must be the newest land there and they did a great job on it. Then we did a night race. Well worth it. My big question with this day is what makes lightning and mater move???? Anyways we got 20432 steps in or 15.4Km.
