Disneyland Day 1

We were up bright and early and headed off to Disneyland by 9am Monday morning. We were very blessed to have a free shuttle from our hotel so we just had to hop on at the hotel and we were let off right inside the Disneyland gates. Perfect!

We spent most of Monday in Tomorrowland where they have a lot of futuristic stuff. The very first ride we saw and did was the Star Wars Tours. You get on a simulator and get to fly off into the galaxy at light speed. It was very cool...especially to Jagger who is a HUGE Star Wars fan!

Next we got on a submarine and got to see the goings ons under the "ocean."


And then it was Autotopia where we got to drive our own cars.


This was an awesome Disney Moment. They do a Jedi Training class (which the boys got to do and we will do a separate post on that) and we happened to walk by and catch the end of one on the first day. We also just happened to be standing where the characters exit and this Storm Trooper came rushing up to Jagger and got right in his face. Scared Jagger to giggles and he LOVED it! It was definitely a "magical" moment for him.

Buzz Lightyear's ride. Very cool. You get to shoot lasers at targets and rack up points which then get stacked up against all the people on the ride.


My least favorite thing at Disneyland was a futuristic house. It was booorrrinnnngg. But the kids and Jimmy did find rockband and did look super cute trying to figure it out!

Look who we ran into!!

I had a coupon for the Rainforest Cafe that is in downtown Disney so that is where we ate lunch on Day 1.

The Lego Store in Downtown Disney.


While Daddy took the big kids on a scary ride Jagger and I headed off to some cool little kid rides.



I really don't have a clue what ride this is...I'm sure it will come back to me eventually. Pirates of the Carribean maybe??

We all went on Splash Mountain, got soaked and loved it! They take a picture of you going down the big drop at the end. Here is a picture of that picture.

Winnie the Pooh ride.

We didn't get home until after 8pm the first night and we were exhausted. Had quick baths and headed straight to bed so we could do it all again tomorrow!
