We went to Disneyland for our first day. This is a trip of all girls. All grown up girls!! Some would see us as a group of elderly, old ladies. I am here with my four sisters (one is my brother's wife) and my 82-year-old mother.
It started out with the six of us getting up and ready for our "early" entrance and trying to get six women ready with one bathroom (we did have two sinks) is not easy!
The even more comical part was the six of us trying to find a way to the park. Here we are, walking hotel to hotel trying to find out how to get on the bus. A different story was told at each hotel how to get there. Eventually, a city bus came along and told us there was another one coming that would go to the park. The driver on that bus looked at us like we were ABSOLUTELY FREAKING CRAZY!!! He just told us to get on the bus and didn't charge us. Took us around to the other street and let us off in front of the park.
We then went and got a wheelchair and we were off!! We did the usual stuff, however, we did it MUCH FASTER!! They pretty much have California Adventure set up where wheelchairs go through the usual entrances, but, at Disneyland, you go through the exit and get on quicker. We flew through pretty much every line...it was rather awesome. And we didn't do it to do that, my 82-year-old mama needed the wheelchair. She can walk, but, she has a bum back and a bum knee, so she really did need the chair.
Wendy and I got our faces painted!!! We were so freaking adorable!!! We had twinsy flowers on our cutest faces!!
We ended the day by going over to California Adventure to see the new show, The World of Color. It's like Fantasmic, but different music, etc. It was really cool. Before we went there, we went on Soaring Over California. It was Wendy and my sister Cheryl's first time. I love going on that ride with people for their very first time, because it is so amazing!! I love telling them to SMELL the pine, the oranges, the ocean!!
Today, we are going back to California Adventure. It's gonna be another LONG day, but I am having the time of my life with my sister's and my mom!!!

Glad you are having fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous but glad your having a great time. You needed a break from all the hubbub! Enjoy it. Your bus story reminds me of when Josh and I were in D.C. and we got on the merto to go to the arts museum only to find out we walked 6 blocks to the same spot we got on the metro and there it was a block away! Bahhh lol
