We originally we were going to be in Anaheim on 9/11/2001, but our plans were pushed back slightly. Dan had some work in Anaheim Hills, so he booked a hotel just down the road from Disneyland and brought Gen and Drew along. We had a morning flight and were in the park that afternoon. We managed to see a lot of the characters this first day. We so love Disneyland!!!
Another afternoon trip to Disneyland, after Dan put in time at work. We grabbed some dinner and then hit some rides before closing time.
We took one day to drive down to Legoland to meet Gen's friend Theresa with daughter Mattea. The kids ran themselves ragged on all kinds of play areas. It was a pretty cool place, Dan wishes he was still a kid and fit on the rides.
One of our favorite things at Disneyland - The Electric Light Parade! (OK, one of like 10 favorite things at Disneyland: Mickey, Tigger, the rides, Donald Duck, Indiana Jones ride, the churros, Space Mountain, Thunder Mountain railroad....)
Our last morning we hit a couple of our favorite rides one last time: Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, and then California Adventures for the first time. The Roller Coaster is incredibly awesome, as it accelerates via magnets on flat ground and is one heck of a rush.
