we had planned for day 3 to be laid back since we figured we would have done everything we wanted to on day one and two, but we still felt rushed like we had to see more! it was fine with me because we saw and did a lot of fun things.
we saw the bug's life 4d movie. it really terrified kim and i. at one point i was huddled in jon's chest and kim reached over to grab me and it scared me so bad i screamed! when we got out, i felt like i had just gone through a haunted house. wtf!
tower of terror was another crowd favorite, but for some reason every time we waited in line for it, we found ourselves stuffing our faces with all the food we packed. particularly flamin' hot cheetos! not a good thing to have on your belly when you're being jostled around like that.
we had appetizers at carnation cafe again on sunday. those fried pickles are so addicting! jon and i shared a serving of pickles and another bowl of baked potato soup. it was just as good the second time around.
at mike's request, we went to tom sawyer's island. kim and i put up a pretty good fight, but he wouldn't drop it so we went. we walked right onto the ferry and mike couldn't stop talking about it. "at least we didn't have to wait in line!" that man...
we spent most of the day going between disneyland and california adventures. jon and i got a dipped chocolate-chocolate ice cream cone last time we were here (in september) and we loved it and wanted another one this trip. it delivered.kim's memories of disneyland included churros dipped in chocolate sauce and on the last day she finally found where to buy it!
the tiki room is a family favorite for jon and i. it was kim's first time!
jon and kim don't like riding on wet rides, but mike and i love them. we finally talked jon and kim into going on splash mountain with us! they sat in the back and mike and i sat in the very front. almost as soon as the ride got going, mike switched seats so that i was alone in the front by myself! i got mad at him and he assured me he wouldn't do it again. i knew something was suspicious because jon was in the backseat unable to stop laughing. as we started to ascend the final hill, i turned around and mike had left me in the front all alone again! i was pissed and tried sitting down in the same seat as him thinking that it was a spot for two (i found out later it was most certainly a one person seat) and all i could hear was mike yelling "you can't ride!!!" while pushing on my back trying to stop me from sitting on his lap. at the last minute, i sat in my own seat and we got this picture on the way down! there was no line when we finished the ride, so we asked one of the workers if we could ride it again. his response was "accctually nooo....we can see you guys and watched you switching seats..." way funny! we kept up the nightly tradition and finished the night off with one last round of space mountain.
candid!not candid, but still cute!
it was such a fun vacation! we did so many enjoyable things and ate so much good food. i would go back in a heartbeat if i could. disneyland is always a blast, but its so much better when you're with three of your best friends.
kim's recap of day three here!
we had one more night with the birds, so we spent it in old town san diego eating cinnamon tortillas and drinking root beer. it's always so fun hanging out with mike and laughing at old stories. he's a really good friend and he couldn't have married a better girl! we all get along so well and surprisingly never got sick of each other, haha! it was pretty easy talking them into coming out here for disneyland, i'm hoping that talking them into moving to san antonio with us will be just as easy...
