We had a great time at Disneyland and California Adventure! We spent five days there after we left my parents' home. Each of us tried rides that we hadn't been on before. We made a deal with the kids that if they went on all of the rides (excluding one ride of their choice) they would be rewarded souvenir money. They did a pretty good job(though sometimes with a little whining...we should have made that part of the deal) and got some fun prizes to remember the trip. Sarah learned that she loved the Matterhorn Bobsleds and Space Mountain. Jake loved Space Mountain, Thunder Mountain Railroad, California Screamin', and Buzz Lightyear Astroblasters. Grace went on every single ride...she was awesome! Rachel loved every ride she was allowed to ride, except for the Matterhorn Bobsleds. I had to cover her eyes every time we passed the snow monster. We had a really fun breakfast with Minnie and some of her friends. The food was delicious, and I recommend it to anyone planning a Disneyland trip. We also won passes to stay in California Adventure for an hour after it closed, so we got to ride on lots of attractions with hardly any waiting in line! We spent an evening with our friends, the McLeans, who live in Baltimore, and another evening with our friends, the Stowes, who live in Orange County. I'm a little bummed we didn't get pictures at the sword in the stone or at the front entrance of Disneyland, or with my parents who joined us for two days(Sorry mom). We tried to just enjoy the moment, and picture taking sometimes gets in the way of that! Oh well. We did have a great vacation. I agree with Jake who told us he was grateful Walt Disney created Disneyland, because "He helped us to not be so sad about moving."
