The park opens early some days so we decided to take advantage of it and see some more of the characters. We still needed some signatures and the kids were on a mission.
Up way earlier that any of us wanted we still managed to be there which turned out to be great. We did get to see Donald and Minnie but Sleeping Beauty alluded us. We also got an early start on all the rides. Peter Pan's Flight began the morning with Alice in Wonderland and Dumbo. The lines were bearable and the rides enjoyable.
We also did It's a Small World and the Matterhorn. The Matterhorn is a roller coaster and Kailei's only comment was, "It's awesome!"
We rode Space Mountain again and again. The first time we went I told Kailei I was a little scared. She simply held my hand and told me, "It's only space Mom."
We played Astro Blaster again, did a little more shopping and tried unsuccessfully to hunt down Sleeping Beauty. Zeb is a little worried. Kailei commented that "Sleeping Beauty might be on a date OR she might be dead." He really doesn't want Kailei thinking Sleeping Beauty is dead so he is now on a mission to find her as well.
We came back for a little afternoon swim. Kailei enjoyed Castaway Cove and Nic and Keara spent time in the big pool.
The boys went out to Disneyland again to ride Indiana Jones but the girls and I decided to call it an evening. I was pooped and I knew the girls could use a few extra zzz's.
