So here i am again... my last post was a lot longer that what i intended, so i'll keep further ones a little shorter.
We hopped over to DCA, this was a new experience for both of us, but i had a plan, my wife loves the cars movie, it's probably her favorite disney movie, i have read online that for the maximum wow factor is best to experience cars land for the first time at night and entering from Pacific Wharf walking beneath the rock arch, so we spent 4 hrs at the park dodging cars land, we first walked thorugh Hollywood Land, got into monster inc ride, thought it was really nice done, we saw Tower of Terror, but fast passes were sold out and the line was too long, then headed to bug´s land my wife loved it, she also likes Bugs, so we were just walking around taking pictures, at one moment i had to turn around when we almost went through the corridor that connects bugs land and cars land, then we backtracked to buena vista street, watching the performances and using our photopass+ every time we saw a photographer, we walked through grizzly peak did a 35min line for Soarin' just amazing! we both loved it, then we headed to paradise pier, did Goofy's sky school, ate a churro, had some ice cream, tried some of the games at paradise pier, bught some souvenirs from the shops, i was just trying to burn some time to let the sun go down...
And boy was it worth it! as soon as i saw most of the park lights turned on, I started walking to pacific wharf very casual, eating ice cream, just talking of what we thought of the parks so far, so when we got in front of the rock bridge with all the rock walls beautifuly iluminated, i just stopped and said nothing, it was just gorgeous, i was impressed, but i had seen many pictures and videos before our trip so i knew what to expect, my wife on the other hand knew nothing about it, just knew there was a place themed after the cars movie, but thats it. When we did that turn and got that amazing view she had the biggest smile on her face! took many pictures, and was just amazed about everything, we kept walking and got to radiator springs, she was like a 7 yr old, just jumping around, taking pictures, every time we saw something new she just ran over there! "mira! el cono comodín!!" (look the cozy cone hotel!), "ohhh!! el café de flo!!" (Flo's V8 café") it was soo worth it to wait till night time to see cars land!!! we went in line to had pictures taken with mater and lightning mcQuin. took many photos and videos It was just amazing, i really recommend anyone, if you have the oportunity to decide when a 1st time visitor sees cars land for the very first time, wait till night time, it will be much more magical.
After that we heade back to out Hotel Room to rest, Early Magic Hour was due the next day, so we wanted to rest for the early morning the next day....
