It rained most of the drive, was nice though since we weren't getting wet we could enjoy it. We got to our hotel early I don't remember the time but close to 1:00. We were staying at the Camelot right acros the street from the Disney parks, so nice to be able to walk there! I ran in to check and see when the check in time was and even though it wasn't till 4:00 they had Ron and MaryAnn's room ready so we checked in and went to lunch at IHOP. When we got back our room still wasn't ready so we moved some stuff to their room to be more secure and decided it was only 3:00 and we had nothing to do, sooooooooo since we weren't going to be using all 5 days of our park hopper passes we opted for an evening at California Adventures. Ron stayed behind to relax and the rest of us went and eplored only one section of the park, the backlot. We first went on the Hollywood Tower of Terrors ride now known to our family as the Haunted Elevator thanks to Trevin! He loved the ride the first time but then went again with me (we had to switch off with CarliAnn) and didn't like it anymore, we sat in the front row this time and he could see the video more, he said he didn't like the people falling while standing, even though they weren't real. Later he said he wanted to invit them to his birthday party, silly boy, when I told him they lived to far he said they could drive, so I told him they weren't real and he countered with, "well there are real haunted people." These are the pics from the first ride, note Trevin face in the corner, and he loved it after this one! ( we realized later we shouldn't have taken pics of the pics, sorry for that now)
Walking the streets we saw, Mr incredible, and later Mrs. Incredible, and JoJo, she blew kisses with Carli since Carli wasn't sure what to think of these characters, that broke the ice, and when JoJo walked by her again later, she immediatly started blowing kisses at her again and CarliAnn blew them back, it was so cute. From then on she assumed they would all blow kisses and they did!
We also went on the Monster's Inc ride, which had been closed for 3 months and as we looked over and saw the closed sign (we were dissappointed since Jarin and I had been there 2 years before when they had the signs up saying they were building it) Jarin noticed a cast member remove the sign right then and we were some of the first to get on it! They every part of the movie represented! We also saw Muppetvision 3-d, love that one, and went to the live play of Alladin. They even have actors riding on a magic carpet above our heads! Trevin loved the Elephant that came through the audience with the whole monterage for Alladin's first wish to be Prince Ali.
We made it back to the Hotel early so we could be rested up for the big day of Disneyland!
