Disneyland 2014

Angela went to Disneyland with the Taylor Choir.  I went with her as a chaperon.  We were delayed in getting there due to a blown tire, which happened in the back of our bus.  It was quite an adventure.

When we arrived in Disneyland, we spent most of the first day meeting some Disney characters.   We met Maleficent, the Fairy Godmother, Pluto, Mickey, and Minnie.  The girls loved seeing the characters.  We went on a couple of rides - Disney Monorail, Disney Railroad, Autopia, Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough, and toured most of Mickey's Toontown.  We saw the fireworks show and went shopping.  A lot of popular rides, like "It's a Small World", "Pirates of the Caribbean", and the Nemo submarine.

We headed to the studio where they performed a couple of songs that corresponded to a movie scene.  They performed "Gonna Take You There" from Princess and the Frog and "He Mele No Lilo" from Lilo and Stitch.  This was one of the highlights of the whole trip.  They taught the kids have to make soundtracks and layovers.  It was rewarding to watch a scene and hear their voices.

The next day, we spent the whole day in Adventures in California and rode a lot of different rides and even saw the Aladdin show. We joined with another group whose leader knew more about Disneyland than I did.  The girls really enjoyed "Toy Story Midway Mania", "Soarin' Over California", "Flik's Flyers", "Mickey's Fun Wheel" and  "Radiator Springs Racers".  Angela went on a scary roller coaster ride "Goofy's Sky School" with a friend.  She didn't know how scary it was until she was on it.  What a brave girl!!!  At the end of the day, we saw the amazing water color  show.  They girls had a blast that day!!  

Here are some of the highlights of the past two days.
