Disneyland just got better

This post might be terribly reminiscent of the post from 3 months ago, but we went back to Disneyland with the Preston's and that deserves its own blog post. We got to spend 3 days at Disneyland, and we left completely exhausted. 
I have to tell you about the HIDDEN MICKEY'S if you have not heard of them. It is fun to keep entertained waiting in lines, or even to look for while you are on the ride. We bought a book and it gave us hints to where they were and I especially became obsessed with finding them. Some of the pictures of them are down below. 

Possibly one of my favorite memories is meeting Rapunzel. Tom also really wanted to meet her and was more than willing to wait in line with me for an hour.  Joe was excited deep down inside but tried not to show it. 


The only way to do the new CARS ride is by the fast passes. Other people were waiting in line for about 2 hours. The ride is good but not worthy of a 2 hour wait. 


We got a magic morning which is we got in an hour before the park officially opens. We rode about 6 rides in 1 hour.

Another hidden Mickey, found while waiting in line at the Tower of terror. We rode it about 6 times each day, so we looked at this often. 


If you haven't done the animation station at California adventure then  you have not fully experienced Disneyland. It is also a great escape if you desperately need some air conditioning.  

Proud boys showing off their Mickey Mouse drawings they learned to do in 20 minutes at the animation station.  

We were stuck in the cars ride for about 20 minutes. It took the who excitement  out of the ride. 

Fast passes anyone? We built up quite the collection, which meant we hardly ever waited in line
