Last day at Disney!

Well we had two wonderful days at the parks with fairly minimum crowds. We had planned to stay only at Disneyland for our third day as it is Rhi's and  My favorite. But overnight the crowds had moved in like crazy.  Halloween at Disney is very popular. The day started off by them not letting us walk to the mickey tram, due to parking lot construction and thereby adding to our previous two days of being on our feet, by walking maybe a mile and half extra. Oh well. No day at Disney is a bad day! Picture taking was still a bit on the slack-ful side. We need to hire a photographer to take pictures of us so we can focus on the fun to be had.
We began the day by me racing to Fast Pass for Star wars, The older Boys going on Indy, and meeting up in New Orleans land in the Pumpkin Beignet Line. We are very lucky to See Jack and Sally up close and personal. Archy tries to give him a hive five.

I may or may not have had a hiker heart attack that my camera was broke, when it was switched to live view finder, so that was my excuse for this pic. These Stormtroopers were from the dark side and got us in trouble by leading us to the wrong shuttle. We were very lucky that all 8 of us got in the front row, 

I was able to ride Manision one more time! And I plan on making this (maybe in a smaller scale ;) for my decorations. While us three girls rode Mansion the boys rode Splash Mountain. After all our FP were used we decided to hightail it over to California adventure to escape the crowds.  

Poor Archy was upset that he wasn't tall enough to ride Screamin, and refused to look at me for the whole ride!

Zany always ready to say "cheese"

Zany is flirtin with Donald! She was so happy to see to him.

Walking to relax in the redwood creek play area. These two just make me smile sometimes, the rest of the Family is ahead. 

It was really nice, we let the kids play and us older ones, took some much needed rest.  We had even had a break watching "aladdin" but we were exhausted! 

Rhi and Z plan our next trip along side Rhi's future car. 

Our time is winding down in California adventure as we make our way back to Disneyland! 

We rode Small world twice, so while in line we could see the Paint the night parade as we weren't ready to stand in line for along time for it.  

Biggest Regret of the trip: I didn't demand a family picture infront of the Castle! We even made it to Midnight! but we just go go go from place to place and next time I will make sure we do. The Castle was so pretty at night. We even made it to Midnight!

Always the last stop of the night if you go with Rhi, She loves to get silhouettes of her family to hand on here wall.  Maybe she will add a picture of them? Eddy was in the chair during this shot and I think Q was upset that no one had the energy to race to Splash Mountain but him.


It was such a wonderful trip, I am already trying to plan another one! There were no major fights and everyone had fun.  We bought some Mickey characters dressed as Star wars figures and I got my much sought after Zero popcorn bucket.
