When we woke up Monday morning it was pouring rain. We quickly stopped by the grocery store and picked up ponchos for the week ahead. We parked and donned our ponchos and ran through the rain to be first in line to get in.
And then we waited for the wet park to open up.
Luke studied the map.
By the time the park opened the rain had pretty much stopped and we folded up our ponchos and ran straight over to Tower of Terror. With no line we were on the ride in 30 seconds. Most of us love this ride – Chris, Ryan, Katie, Emily and me included! {It’s Ryan and Emily’s favorite} – but Megan, Luke and Matt were a little nervous. They followed the ‘you must try anything you’re tall enough for’ rule but it was NOT their favorite ride. {Even Monae tried the ride and didn’t like it at all.} It’s a love it or hate it kind of ride. Poor Luke still talks about how scary it is.
While Dad and the big kids went on it for the second and third time Megan, Luke, Matt and I explored the gift shop and particularly liked the Ghost Mickey and Minnie.
Then off to explore other things… so fun to be here altogether.
We enjoyed the Frozen Sing Along. The hosts were really funny. One of my favorite things from the day.
The official gold carriage from the new movie, Cinderella.
Meeting some interesting characters…
We went to the Lights, Camera, Action Extreme Stunt Show, the Great Movie Ride, the Indiana Jones Epic stunt Spectacular, played in the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Movie Set Adventure, saw the Muppet Vision 3D and then headed back towards the Tower of Terror for some dinner, and then the Rock n Roller Coaster and scary Tower drops.
At the end of a fun first day, we were exhausted – but not the teenagers, they wanted to stay longer. We left them there so they could go to Fantasmic and Chris dropped us off at home and went back to pick them up when it was over. What a good dad.
