We were the only ones who opted
for a five day pass to Disneyland.
We only had a half day on our fifth day before we needed to head to the
airport, but we were determined to make the most of it. One of the best memories I have
of previous Disney trips was getting to the park before it opened and waiting
along Main Street for the ropes to be pulled away. The anticipation is magical and they create such excitement
with the music, etc… We’d had some pretty rotten luck getting inside the park
before it official opened earlier in the week, but I knew that we could pull it
off on our last day. We timed
everything perfectly and were walking down Main Street before 10am –
unfortunately, we hadn’t realized that being a Friday the park actually opened at
9am so not only did we miss the magical buildup, but we were an hour late! Oh well, right?
Today was the day Katie would
finally get to meet some Princesses! While Justin took the rest of the kids on
rides, Katie and I tried to find as many Princesses that we could!
A sad, sad attempt to get a
picture of the kids in front of Cinderella’s castle. Darn that California sunshine!
We let the three big kids each
pick out $10 souvenir provided that they pay for half of it. Katie and Drew didn’t ask, so we didn’t
offer :) Abigail picked out some Disney earrings, Carly got a Disney necklace,
and Jason opted for Legos.
Grandma and Grandpa picked us
up shortly after one and we headed to the airport after a quick stop at
Chick-fil-a to pick up lunch.
Phew! That concludes Fletcher’s go to Disney 2014! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for a
great vacation! Until next time…
