California Adventure Land 5/3/10














Z's totally focused on the parade...


Since we got our annual pass last month, we have yet been to California Adventure Land.  I checked the hours and it closes pretty early during the weekdays...well we usually don't get to Disneyland til 6pm-ish to avoid baking in the sun and the crowd...so today we only had enough time to walk in to catch the parade and walk right out because they were closing.














Today was one of the hottest day this year (so far), even at 6pm we could still feel the heat radiating off the street!  After CAD closed we walked right over (along with everyone else) to Disneyland.  We had about an hour to kill before the parade, so we took the train to Toon Town and hung out there for a while. 














Checking herself out in Minnie's house...

Last time we were here with Z's friend Eddie we went to visit Mickey's house.  This time we went thru Minnie's house, which is alot smaller compared to Minnie's mansion.  The houses are neighbors.  Hmm...for some reason I always thought Minnie and Mickey are married and they live together?  Maybe this was the living arrangement before they got married?

We've seen the parade before but Z was still very excited to watch it again.  I, on the other hand, was pretty sure all the dancers noticed a mom in the crowd totally zoned out for a good 10 minutes!  We watched the parade right on Main st. so everything (and everyone) was really close.  Z held on to me tight the whole time, but as soon as we walked down to the circle and got a little further from the parade she was dancing to the music...maybe we were too close and the music was a little too loud and it scared her?

Tonight at bed time I had a really bad stomachache.  I had to go to the bathroom several times, and when I was finally done I opened the door to the bedroom only to see a little body right next to the door....Z had cried herself asleep laying next to the door :0(
