Today was our last day at the Disneyland Resort. With our three day park hopper tickets we got one day early entry, so we decided that today was the day to use it. We got to the park an hour before opening time and headed straight for Finding Nemo. We thought that it would be fun to ride it again and not wait more than ten minutes. Ethan did awesome... he seems to wait in line better when he knows what to expect.
We spent the day riding all the rides that we wanted to hit again... Matterhorn, Tea Cups, Alice in Wonderland, Dumbo, Peter Pan, Buzz, Buzz, Buzz, and more Buzz! We grabbed some hamburgers for lunch and enjoyed watching the end of Jedi Training Camp. Ethan has lately become obsessed with Star Wars and he was excited to see Darth Vader and Storm Troopers. Ryan and Addy took turns riding Space Mountain while we attempted to get a tired Ethan to take a nap.
We had no luck, so we headed over to Pirates for one more adventure. We had our fill of the Magic Kingdom and Ethan continually asked for Toy Story, so we headed to California Adventure. We took a tour through Monstropolis one more time, saw Wall-E (cut out), and then wanted to see the interactive Crush (turtle from Finding Nemo) exhibit. There was a wait, so we hung out and looked at some cool artwork and spinning Toy Story contraption. It freaked Ethan out at first, but when he was able to watch it again, he was intrigued.
Ryan and Addy enjoyed the interactive Crush... he would talk to audience members and answer questions. Ethan got bored and wanted to move on. We headed to Toy Story and enjoyed the virtual carnival games several times. We enjoyed a spin on the Sun Wheel... Ethan couldn't wait to get off, so he could go back to Toy Story again. Ryan and Addy took turns riding Toy Story with Ethan while the other got their fill of thrills on the roller coaster.
We were all feeling a little tired and decided to enjoy the Pixar Play Parade one more time and call it a successful trip. We left the parks early and walked back to the hotel to freshen up before dinner. Ethan fell asleep on the way back and didn't resume consciousness until after 7:00pm.
When he woke up, we headed to a Red Robin down the street and tried to enjoy a relaxing meal with Grumpy. Ethan did much better when we told him that we needed to go to Target to buy some diapers... he likes to look at a Kung Fu Panda book and Wall-E toy there, so he was quite content. We finished out the evening with a bath and showers... one more night in crummy hotel beds.
