Finding Nemo Voyage and Disneyland

A trip to the Happiest Place on Earth with Uncle Bart was on the calendar for today. Upon arriving to Disneyland, the girls and I headed over to see if perhaps the new Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage was previewing today, and it was!! We had to stand in line for just over an hour, but the girls did great and both were excited about seeing the new ride and of course finding Nemo.
Hey Look! It's P. Sherman.
Don't believe me?... look at the writing on the back of his mask.The ride was great and Rachel really loved it. We already have plans to meet a friend and her 3 year old little boy for another Nemo adventure on Tuesday. The girls can't wait!

After exiting the Nemo ride, Uncle Bart had arrived and was waiting for us. We did some exploring over at Pirates Lair on Tom Saywer's Island and a few other things and then we headed over to California Adventure where it was a little less crowded. One of the things Rachel absolutely LOVES is the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. She loves the rope bridge! We exposed Uncle Bart to the Brother Bear show in the littel outdoor amphithere there and Rachel loved it. She ran right up to the bear and hugged him. Other must do rides for Rachel while at California Adventure includes King Trition's Carrousel and visiting Mike and Sully from Monsters, Inc. Two of her favorite rides!On a positive potty training note....towards the end of our day, Rachel was rewarded with a Nemo bucket of popcorn for having stayed dry ALL DAY! Whooo Hooo. Preschool here we come. Rachel fell asleep in her stroller, with her hand in her bucket. Poor girlie was exhausted from all the fun she'd had all day.
