On our way into Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. Didn’t have the same enthusiasm after..
*Disney Tip – Mr Toad’s is scary. Don’t make it one of your first rides with a three year old :P He didn’t trust us for a few hours. Wouldn’t even ride the story time boat. Oops.

Dole Whip. Lots and lots of Dole whip.
*Disney Tip – Stop and enjoy the random entertainment that comes out of nowhere. As much as the rides, Alec talks constantly about the performances that unfolded right before his eyes.

Street Car!

Cars Land at Night. It’s like you’re in the movie. My new favorite place to be.
*Disney Tip – Stop and enjoy the random entertainment that comes out of nowhere. Alec has always been pretty obsessed with DJ from Cars so when he showed up in the middle of the road to start a dance party two proud parents watched their boy show his best moves.
DJ’s Dance ‘n Drive.
Waiting for the Roadsters
Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters
Waiting for World of Color

How each day in Disney ended.
Toy Story Midway Mania! My favorite ride.
*Disney Tip – Make a reservation for Ariels Grotto. Great Breakfast and the perfect way to meet the princesses. If you make it for a day when there is magic morning available for California Adventure (but don’t waste your magic morning) you can go in the Disney Dining gate with your reservation and get a couple of rides in before breakfast and the line ups build up.
