We wrapped up the pool and hit the room at 6:25.. We were feeling pretty hungry, so we decide to hit
Disneyland and head to one of our favorite meal locations in either park...
Plaza Inn...!!!
Katherine got a huge slice of Red Velvet cake because... BIRTHDAY GIRL.
We decimated both plates. I think there was itty bitty pile of bones left and that's all.
Plaza Inn always appears expensive on the front end, but once you immerse yourself in its delicious offerings, it's actually a bargain. You get more for the $ than anywhere else in the park in my opinion.
We wrapped up around 7:40 and headed towards Matterhorn. Katherine is pretty much it's biggest fan. You'll see that later in this TR.
The new features have done wonders.. The ride is still HORRIBLE though. They NEED to smooth it out. Probably requires major refurbishment and new ride vehicles though...
We rolled off Matterhorn at 8:03 and headed towards the core of fantasyland. Peter was a ridiculous mess of a wait, but Toad was relatively short...
I've never looked backwards on the attraction (or in this case, a literal ride).
I think my camera saw more than my eyes did here. I've never seen this detail before.
We were actually pretty tuckered out, so we started heading back towards Main street and the gates.
But not before I shot some pics of the Castle... I LOVE it at night...
And NOT before stopping to take some pics on the way out with the PP+ photogs!!
Back at the Grand on the way to the elevators, I snapped some pics of what they are doing (or by the time I have written this, already done) to the rooms. I can't say I'm a fan. It's OK, but it isn't Craftsman or Bungalow. Just telling it like it is.
Thankfully I've preserved the Grand's previous luster in my own personal bedroom back in Phoenix!!!!
Finally arriving at the room at 9:05, we called it an early night to prepare for the next day... it was Dapper Day after all!!
