Making sure I have all my supplies for Disneyland!

All of our snacks.

One downside to being away for several days is taking food. It’s hard to eat healthy on vacation but definitely easier if I take most of our food from home.

Ending our day!

Didn’t make it 5 minutes before conking out!

Day 1 = success and two worn out two year olds! They had a blast though. Sophie wanted nothing to do with the characters but Alden had high fives for all of them. He got to meet Pluto, Goofy, & Mickey! I’ve been to Disney World as well and while it’s amazing and much bigger, there is just something special about Disneyland. It’s original and where it all started. The characters seem much more accessible and there are plenty of rides, even for our young ones. There hasn’t been much they can’t do.

What we did: Buzz Lightyear ride, Space Mountain (it was closed while I was in DW), Space shuttle ride, Mickey’s Toontown, Roger Rabbit ride, met characters. Lines were long on Monday, so we tried to do mostly indoor things. It’s HOT here in SoCal.

I’ll post about Day 2 later. It’s 3:30am here and Sophie and I are both run down and feeling sickly. Blah. California Adventure is in a few short hours!!
