Disneyland Day 3 - Finally!

Ok I realize this is wayyyy overdue, but I figured I would finish it up anyway since I said I would. I am way behind on blogging so I will try to inundate you with blogs in the next few days!

The third day we went back to Disneyland to finish up all the stuff we hadn't finished the first day.

First off, we ran in to Tinkerbell in the entrance to the park!


Finally got a pic in front of the castle...

We also went to the Diamond Horseshoe Review and saw Billy Hill and the Hillbillies Play...


We then rode It's a Small World - which is WAY better here than WDW IMHO - and then just finished up a few other smaller rides...



We finished up the day with some shopping for souvenirs for everyone and ended up buying a ton of candy in the sweets shop. They make it right there in front of you. Who can resist a freshly made caramel apple? Not me.

We ended this day a little bit early and then headed back to the hotel since the Oscars were on. If you know me, you know I don't miss the Oscars. So we just got some wine, ordered a pizza and chowed down on some of our treats we bought earlier.

I really loved Disneyland. It is truly so different, yet obviously very much the same as WDW. It is so much more manageable. You don't have to take a bus 30 minutes to get to another park or your hotel. We walked two blocks from our hotel to the parks and it was just so convenient. There is still a ton of cool stuff to do and I really thought a LOT of the rides were better here. It is just a totally different experience than WDW. Just depends on what you are looking for I guess. We had a great time!
