Rides We Rode

Al and Ben riding "flik's flyers"

Grandma riding the Caterpillar...

Dumbo was a blast and even though the line was sometimes forever long, Logan is a fun kid to wait in line with.

Autopia became one of Logan's new favorite rides. He was fun to watch, he couldn't hit the gas and hold onto the wheel at the same time. Best of all was Amber taking this picture. She was going full speed completely turned around, no hands on the wheel so her car was smashing back and forth off the rail, screaming like a little kid taking pictures of us behind her. What a spaz...

Dumbo without the line... Same concept, however when this one gets going, if your rocket is down all the way, it feels like the centrifugal force it going to toss you out, there is nothing holding you in but an old leather strap...

Only Ben can tell you the difference between a merry-go-round and a carousel. The latter was closed so we spent an hour on the Triton's Merry-go round. Logan was funny, one of the times we rode it, he just wanted to sit on the bench (usually reserved for those physically unable to hoist their girth up on a dolphin) He is almost as big a spaz as his mother.

This is the year we discovered the 'Bug's Land' portion of the park. There are tons of fun rides for kids Logan's age. The bumper cars go about a half a mile / hour but Logan got a kick out of driving a potato bug.

The Ladybug spinner. I about lost it on that one...

*other favorites include:

Finding Nemo Submarines... the line is really long cause it is still fairly new but I thought it was very clever

Winnie the Pooh... nuff said

Splash Mountain... Logan and Amber had to sit this one out so Al, Ben, Kristen and I waited until the park was about to close on the weekend to ride it. When it is freezing cold and near midnight, the line is non existent. We rode it 3 times straight without getting off. Needless to say, we were cold, wet and smiling...

Matterhorn... Dad almost dropped his camera ( he was trying to video the ride while riding it...)

Big Thunder... This one was aways my favorite growing up.

Tower of Terror... never gets old, the drop is the best!

Space Mountain... So much fun, Amber was bummed about missing that one.

peter pan, snow white, Mr. toad's wild ride, Alice in wonderland, story book canal boats, Casey jr., the Disneyland railroad, Pinocchio, star tours, buzz lightyear, soarin, screamin, ....The list goes on, what a great trip!
