Toy Story Mania!

One of the favorite rides at California Adventure was Toy Story Mania. We remember this ride from Disney World. At Disney World they have fast passes for it, at California Adventure they don't. That means that this was the first ride that we went on each day as the park opened at 10:00. We didn't go on it the last day since within 10 minutes of the park opening the line was 1 1/2 hours long. Totally not worth it! (Although it's fun!)Calissa listening to Mr. Potato Head. He was telling jokes as we waited in line.

Toy Story Mania is in 4-D. You wear the 3-D glasses and play carnival games to get points. If you hit certain ones, air or water fly back at you.

Conner and Parker ready to go!

Waiting in line on Saturday morning.
Crazy coincidence of the week. As we were waiting in line this morning the lady behind us started to chat with us and ended up asking us where we were from. We said the Bay Area, by San Fransisco and Oakland. She asked where and I told her Concord. She said that she and her family had lived in Concord in the early 70's. We chatted about some streets, where they were married, etc. She asked about the Elementary School Monte Gardens. I said, "That's where my kids go!" She said her son went there and they walked to school. I asked what street she lived on and she said Noemi Drive. That's the same street my grandparents lived on and my brother lives on now. What a small world!

One more time!

He looks excited, huh?

Another fun Toy Story Ride is in Disneyland and is called Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters. You shoot at Zerg (I don't know how that is spelled?) and you get points. After, you can email your picture home. Don't I look excited?

Parker and Conner and busy shooting.

Travis looks a little too into it, huh?
