Disneyland Today!

We checked out of the hotel at exactly 7am, and by the time we had gotten some breakfast and got to the parking structure, it was 7:15. We parked very close to the crosswalk in Pinocchio, and ended up on the tram at 7:40. We got through the bag check and in line by 7:50, and when the gates opened at 8, we managed to get in the front of a line when additional gates opened.

At 8:10, we entered the queue for Finding Nemo and waited about an hour and ten minutes before we actually got on the Sub. After Nemo, we headed over to California Adventure and were there for the rope drop at 10. We headed to Paradise Pier to ride California Screamin. We were on Screamin in under 10 minutes. When we were getting ready to go, guess who I saw?? Lesmisfan! He was working and looked like he was having SUCH a great time!!! :) After the first ride, I wanted to go again, but Damon didn't, so I hopped in the single rider line. Two rides in a row is my limit!! I was sporing a headache from the screaming, so I took some Tylenol and continued my day!

After Screamin, we went to The Tortilla and Bread Factories. We got 2 corn tortillas and 2 pieces of bread. Yummy! After the bread and tortilla factories, we headed back over to Disneyland. We got some iced coffee, then rode Pirates. We didn't get wet on the waterfalls, but the cannon blasts were exceptionally high and soggy!!

After Pirates, we went to the Golden Horseshoe to check to see if any of the group was there yet. They weren't, so we rode the Jungle Cruise. After the Jungle Cruise, we went back to The Golden Horseshoe to eat and watch Billy Hill. I loved the Billy Hill show! After Rebekah mentioned it on one of the podcasts, I've always wanted to watch it. It was amazing! I'm sure them playing one of my favorite songs (The Devil Went Down To Georgia) helped. But they were a hoot!!!

After Billy Hill, we went to Pirates Lair. I honestly wasn't impressed. But it was hot, and I wasn't up to exploring much. I think next time we go, in October, we'll take the girls over there, and let them explore, and I hope it'll be more impressive.
After Pirates Lair, I was hot so I went into the single riders line at Splash Mountain. On And Off In 10 Minutes, and only one half of my right leg and my right foot were wet!! Whoo-hoo! I then got a caramel apple to eat while waiting. At 3, we met everyone for the Bats Day Haunted Mansion Meet. That was a blast! After we got off Haunted Mansion I called for a Pirates Meet.

After signing WaistcoatedRabbit's HM Meet sign (which was awesome, by the way!) we headed on over to Pirates. We were on in less than 15 minutes or so, and I had fun. (I always have fun on POTC!)

After Darkbeer showed up, so I could meet him in person, we had to leave to get back at a decent hour so I could get some sleep before school starts tomorrow. :)

I had a fabulous time! It was neat seeing all the "Bats" and meeting the LPers! It was great to see Lady Starlight, TinksBestFriend, Alexbook, and Lesmisfan again! And it was awesome meeting WaistcoatedRabbit, Poohbear14, Dave, LuLu (who I actually met waaay in the morning while in line for Nemo!!!), and Darkbeer! I can't wait for more meets! Come on, people, plan 'em up! LOL

For those that couldn't make it, you were missed!!!
