Disneyland Park Fun & Shopping at The Block
Today was another fun day at the parks. When we woke up it was rainy and overcast out, so we took Emily’s small camera but left the big guns behind. Hence, you will see the smaller than usual picture count at the bottom! We started by getting our chocolate muffins at Disney’s California Adventure and headed over to Disneyland.
At Disneyland the first stop was Innoventions where we had gone the day before and saw that we could ride segways in the upstairs section. For those of you who don’t know about this new-fangled technology, the Segway is a self balancing human transporter that you stand on and use in place of other transportation. We rushed up to get in line, which was only about 3 deep so we didn’t wait long. The segway is very cool! It was definitely different that I thought it was going to be after only having seen other people ride it.
After Innoventions we decided to explore some parts of the park we hadn’t seen yet. We went on a couple rides and then headed to have lunch. We had not had our hot dog fix so we headed back to California Adventure to have some Award Wieners! The cool thing about the parks out here is that everything is very close together so it takes about 2 minutes to get from Disneyland to California Adventure to Downtown Disney. After the Award Wieners we decided to go the the Aladdin show which was really cool.
Following a few more activities in the park we decided to go to the Block, which is a bunch of stores as well as a place to get wireless internet access to update this very page! Emily of course took that as an opportunity to spend a little more money, but all in all, well worth the trip. (Self defense alert… Emily here… I went to ONE store and it was an OUTLET.) Back to the Grand Californian Resort we ate dinner at this amazing restaurant called the Napa Rose. Very comparable to Artists Point at the Wilderness Lodge, the food was amazing. A bottle of wine later and we were ready to hit the sack! Yet another fun day at Disney!
