Really fun way to spend Halloween...



We had plans to go to Arizona for Halloween, but the friend's that we were going to stay with had something come up so we made some last minute changes to our plans and off we went to Disneyland! Wow...what a trip. It was a total blast and Sydney had a fantastic time. She loved the characters and many of the rides, but was not happy with the "scary" rides. This was only my 2nd trip to Disney and the last time I was in Disneyland was 10 years ago. California Adventure and Downtown Disney were not there the last time. I have been to the House of Blues once to see a concert in Downtown Disney, but don't ask about that experience because it was a rough one. LOL! Anyway, there are quite a few rides that you would not think would be scary, but they are. Sydney didn't like those, but loved the rides like Dumbo and Nemo. She would have stayed in Mickey's house for the entire time we were in Disneyland. She loved that. California Adventure was a blast too. There is an entire section for A Bug's Life...and Sydney had a blast there. Jed and I managed to do a few rides ourselves in shifts. California Screamin' was really cool, but the best was The Tower of Terror...what a blast. We also did some old standby's, like Space Mountain. It was an awesome couple of days. A great way to spend Halloween and Jed's birthday. The parade was really cool and the fireworks on Friday night were the best fireworks either Jed or I had ever seen.
