Our third day at Disney was spent between the two parks. We started our day out by going to Adventureland. First we hopped on Pirates of the Caribbean.
Since the movies have been made this ride has become even better. Jay loves pirates right now so he mostly liked the ride. The dark parts made him a little nervous but all the music, ships and lively pirates made up for it. Then Mike, Papa and I rode Indian Jones, always a favorite. Next was The Haunted Mansion. Somehow between getting Amaya out of her stroller and walking into the stretching room we were separated. Nonna and Papa ended up alone with Jay. I knew this ride might scare him with all the dark and ghosts but we thought we'd give it a try. MyMy enjoyed it since there was a lot to look at. Jay on the other hand was terrified the whole way through. Poor little guy. Poor Nonna and Papa! He made it though and was rewarded with a Mickey Mouse pancake afterwards, something only a Nonna and Papa would buy ;) He then played on Tarzan's Treehouse and went on The Jungle Cruise. I love The Jungle cruise. It's always entertaining!
After The Jungle Cruise we went to our very favorite Disneyland restaurant, The Blue Bayou. It is inside Pirates of the Caribbean so the atmosphere is awesome. It really feels like you're sitting on the banks of the bayou in Louisiana. The food is SO good. You have to make reservations in advance to be able to get in because it's so popular. It was nice to be able to sit and relax for a while and eat real food after all the running and going. You can't go to Disneyland without hitting up The Blue Bayou!
After lunch we went to Tomorrowland to ride Space Mountain and It's a Small World. The latter ended up being Amaya's absolute favorite ride and probably tied for first with Dumbo for Jay. Jay as especially excited that he got to sit in the very front seat of the boat. Both kids danced and stared in amazement at all the singing children. Of course the catchy tune was stuck in our heads for the rest of the day.
While we were in Tomorrowland we also found Buzz Lighyear! It was pretty awesome.
After a few more rides we hopped over to DCA to go on California Screamin' and Grizzly River Run a few more times. Then it was time to go. We sure loved our Disney experience and I for one can't wait to go back again. Cars Land 2012 here we come!
Our happiest girl on earth in the happiest place on earth :)
