We're here. It's now day 3. First time I've had a chance to be on the iPad. The flight over was as expected. Virgin is pretty good. We got the seats we requested. This time we found the snacks. Packets of chips, cans of soft drink, and my son said sushi too. Meals were as expected. Hot meal at about 1pm (Aus time), sandwiches at about 7pm, then 'breakfast' at about 11pm. Very weird!
Went into
Disneyland for about an hour or 2 on Sunday Arvo, but it was sooooo chockers, we left. Lots and lots of Grads. Had dinner at Millies, which was quite nice.
Hojo: We arrived here (after picking up the car) at about 11am. Our Kids Suite was already ready. Very impressed. Our friends arrived at about 9am. Their standard room was not ready until about 3.30pm. They weren't impressed!! Our kids suite is great. 2 rooms. Kids room with bunk beds and fold out sofa, tv and bathroom. Our room with king bed, tv and bathroom. Each room has a small bar fridge, big enough for bottles of water etc. the pool is quite nice and the splash park was a hit with the kids. Lots of Aussies here.
Went to Disneyland yesterday. Did the Minnie's in the park character breakfast which was a hit. Lots of characters.
Used a Ridemax plan which was brilliant. My one recommendation if going to Disneyland is....do not go without Ridemax. We got on so much with very minimal wait (Max about 15 min wait) even on a Sunday. We saw the parade and stayed for fireworks. Boy I love those fireworks.
Did California Adventure today. Went at opening (but resort guests had early entry). Followed Ridemax again, and it was perfect. Got on everything we wanted with a few extra rides thrown in. Did Radiator Springs Racers for the first time ever. It was pretty good, but not something I'd wait in line for for over about 30 mins. We had fast passes and waited maybe 15 mins. Carsland was good if you've seen the movie, but I think would be brilliant when we see it
It up at night.
Will do Disneyland tomorrow with a full day plan on Ridemax. Will do early entry and get the fantasyland rides done before official opening. Hope things go as well as they have been.
Oh yeah, we had a mini photo shoot with one of the Photopass photographers. He took heaps of different photos, lots of magic shots, and even took us over near tomorrowland to get photos in front of the Astro Orbiter and Matterhorn. Will hunt him out again.
Look forward to hearing all about it!
. Can I ask what your tactics were for getting the RSR fastpasses? Did you go there at right at opening time? Did you have to queue for long to get the passes?
