We love Disney

Day 4:
Our tickets came with a magic morning that we decided to use Tuesday. We woke up at 6 because we could be IN the park at 7. Marty temporarily lost his contact and it was sort of a fiasco-of-a-morning so we didn't end up in Disney until 7:30. We headed straight for Matterhorn because they have new sleds and updated track and no fast passes=long lines. AND it's my favorite ride and Marty hasn't been on it. Well apparently that's where everyone else went too. We waited like 20 minutes but finally I was on my favorite ride! LOVED IT.
first time on Matterhorn
We wanted to be in California Adventure quite early so we could get fast passes to the new ride Radiator Springs Racers (which if you'll recall we have already been on!) So after riding Matterhorn we booked it to CA. The LINE (yes line) for fast passes was getting crazy long so I hopped in and waited my turn. 30 minutes later I got these:
just know that I received these passes at 8:30 am!
We obviously had tons of time before being able to ride RSR so we hung out in CA riding everything!!

(Excuse the photo positioning. I'm done messing with it!)
you guys, $.63 gas!


I told Marty that they take your picture on this ride so I'm yelling 'picture, picture, picture' and these are the faces we got:) love it.
love this statue
All of the cast members name badges have what city they're from. As we're about to get on Toy Story Mania I notice a man (Tim, Jim..can't remember now, UGH) who is from SALT LAKE CITY! We immediately strike up a conversation. Turns out he grew up in West Jordan, goes to the U and works at Disney in the summers. He hooked us up with a "magic moment" and let us go right through the exit and right on the ride because we're from the same town! That is what Disney is all about. I was smiling from ear to ear because I thought it was SO COOL!
 

really overcast in the mornings, but the sun always came out
after World of Color
We did lots of park hopping this day. We spent most of the day in CA, but headed to Disneyland for a little bit to meet up with my good friend from elementary school. She lives 10 minutes from Disney and met up with us after work.
here we are all riding Thunder Mountain
Maybe you didn't notice..but I am wearing two different shirts this day. Spilled coffee on the first one..it was good coffee though! So I represented Westmini and put on my school shirt!


We were at the park until 11:30ish and then went home to rest up for our FINAL day!
