The next part of this is a little fuzzy because I didnt take a lot of pics, but after much though I think I remeber all of what happened. . I know that Jared wanted to go back to the room to get his tripod for the fireworks, so we split up out side the California adventure gates. He took our souvies back to the room and Cambria and I headed over to Disneyland. We first decided to finish up any souviner shopping we had so we didnt have to fight crowds later, we didnt have much to buy anyway just some stuff for my brother mainly (Im pretty big on souvies I know Im lame, after the TR is finished I plan tp post a list of all the souvies I bought and some pics if I can manage, but I already gave alot of them out lol) then over to Indy to grab a final fast pass. After that I asked Cambria what she wanted to repeat because the only thing we hadnt done yet was Matterhorn, and we were gonna wait till after the fireworks so that Jared could join us. She decided repeating Haunted Mansion and Pirates was the way to go because there was a Hat in Le Bat en Rouge she had here eye on and had just enough money left over on her gift card to buy. First we got in line at Pirates which was an intresting line to say the least. It wasnt very long, but at the top of the stairs they weaved us into a corner I had never been to in that line even when it was long Here is the pic i took of it because Im a dork. I literally said hmm I dont think Ive been back here before "snap". My sister was amused anyway.
The next weird thing was there were som teens in front of us and one young lady was wearing so little clotheing my sister was embarssed for her. I believe Camrbria's exact words were "who wheres a mini dress to Disneyland..infact why would you ever want to wear a mini dress that mini!"
The teens also were a little rowdy. At one point the line stoped in front of a door. A door that obviously just went to the other side of the line something CM's Probably use, Well these boys didnt seem to realize because they kept knocking on it then someone near the front of the line would knock back and the boys would freak out like it was a ghost or something. Then when we made it around to the other side they started banging on it again. Cambria thought she was missing something and asked. Isnt that the same door you were banging on before. They didnt answer her though. Im actually greatful I was stuck in line behind this rowdy bunch though because they bothered Camrbria enough that she didnt want to be in the same boat as them and we decided to ask for front. I have never asked for front on pirates before and found it to be an AMAZING experience and I highly recommend it and will most likely continue to ask for it in the future. (on a side not the first time we road pirates I for got to mention that the people behind us were taking flash pictures and then when I said somethign pretending it wasnt them as if I didnt see them very silly)
Anyway here is a pic of the door those kids found sooo amazing.
after pirates Cambria bought here hat and then we road HM again. These was one of the best rides, there was only one flash that went off and one silly yelling person that we put in there place. We didnt get stuck while a handicap person got on nor did we even wait in line we walked right into the streching room Awesome. The one kid we put in place it was pretty funny he kept cackling like a witch and Cambria said very loudly " There are no witches int he Haunted mansion only ghosts so your not funny" and then he shut up, I useually try an ignore these people but I think at that late hour cambria was cranky enough to need to express her furstration it was pretty funny though to hear her little voice command somebody. The person who took a flash picture did so in the ballroom and I said no flash pictures please and she stoped I dont think her pic came out anyway.
After Haunted Mansion we got a call from Jared. He was sitting at Mainstreet station, and was fuming because they told him he couldnt bring in his tripod so he had to walk it back to the hotel room. I was a little annoyed to, because as far as I knew you were allowed to bring them in, I had seen other people with them before etc but what are you gonna do right? He was so annoyed that he decided he didnt want to wait for the fireworks I asked Cambria what she thought and she said that we should watch them from Frontier land because when we were walking around the night before they were pretty visible right there. So thats what I told Jared and he agreed and so Cambria and I hopped on the train to meet him at Main street station. This was a pretty neat train trip because When Jared was waiting for us it he waved at us and waitied for us to disembark it was like getting of a train in the real world, kind of neat also Im not sure if I mentioned before, but the night before while we were riding the train the Mark Twain had floated by as well and the train and the boat had blown there horns back and forth and every one had waved it was very neat. It happened again on this time only they only blew there horns once.
After we met up with Jared the genreal consensus was that everyone was hungrey again. So decided to ride the matterhorn and thunder moutian and then get something to eat. Here are our pics in line for the Matterhorn.
After the Matterhorn we walked over to frontier land to do Thunder Mountian before we couldnt do big rides any more with Jared (after he eats thats it lol) but when we got there they said it had broken down Cambria asked if it would open again and the lady told her ten minutes so we decided to wait, but then another guest asked the same quesiton and was told "I really dont know it may not before the night is over". We were a little confused by that and then were really confused when the same CM told another guest 45 mins probably.
So we decided she really didnt know and gave up. Ironically it was the exact same time Thunder Moutian was down the night before quincidence?
Anyway it was right there so we went to Rancho Del Zocala for Dinner. Cambria and I got kids meals, and Jared some Tortilla soup. We all shared a bag of Chips.
after he crunched it up, we all thought the tortilla chips were rather Christmasy.
After something to eat we found a bench outside the resturant to watch the fireworks from. It was pretty cool to watch them from here there was very little we couldnt see mainly the stuff in directly next to the castle etc. We missed Tink which is always sad, but we did hear the sound track and everything and it wasnt so crowded there on our bench .
After the fireworks we went over to adventure land to take another night ride on the jungle cruise because Cambria wanted to share this experience with Jared. ( Im just realizing I didnt mention this earlier, but we rode Jungle cruise at night the night before just after Jared left, and again this morning before going over to California adventure because the park hadnt opened yet...I think I forgot because I didnt take any pictures sorry guys) This turned out to be a less fun experience then the night before. The night before the skipper was HILARIOUS and his jokes were only helped by his ability to turn the lights on and off. This time the Skipper didnt utilize them so much and the guy sitting on the box in front of me kept taking pictures of the stuff behind me so I didnt see much of the ride because of the spots in front of my eyes
After that Our Indy fast passes werent up yet so we were standing in a corner trying to decided waht to do for the time being and noticed the mark twain at dock and so..thats what we did lol. Heres our pics from our voyage. Also before I forget to mention This time we got to wave and toot at the train from the boat, very exciting!
Candide
this time I informed him of the photo being taken lol
Disneyland closes in an hour, her feet hurt, her back hurts, she hasnt had much sleep, and shes STILL extatic to be here, gotta love that smile.
After we got of the Mark Twain we were just in time for the Indy FP's. Jared couldnt ride for two reasons, one he had just eaten and second, he didnt have a fast pass because he had to have his ticket to get back into the park with his tripod. Also we didnt think he was gonna stay that late. SO he decided that since the park was closeing fairly soon he would go clear out the locker and meet us at main street station. So Cambria headed on to our last ride for the trip Indianna Jones.
I feel bad for the poor guy behind me that got flashed by our Camera lol needless to say we stoped after this one. The next couple were taken on the way out.
Well that was the end of Disneyland I still have some time before class though so Ill go ahead and start the suprise breakfast day and the pics of the room that i took that morning before we left.
