Spring Break - Day Seven: Disney California Adventure!

Our “magic morning” extra hour was at Disney California Adventure today. A little more experienced, we were a few minutes earlier to everything and it made all the difference. Our first ride of the day was Guardians of the Galaxy. I didn’t know exactly what the ride was, but had heard it was a “must do” at DCA. We were the first people on the ride that morning and we went into a cage with three rows of about eight seats each and were told to put on our seatbelts. At that point, they close the doors and turn off the lights and then all of a sudden, you get launched way up into the sky and the zero gravity kicks in and makes your stomach lurch. This repeated, gradually getting more intense. I thought I was going to be sick. But – we all survived!! And after that headed to Cars Land to do the Race Car ride – with no line – three times in a row! – and a couple of the other smaller rides over there, too. We did a number of really fun rides that day without hardly any lines. The kids really liked the River Raft ride, though we did get pretty wet. We did every ride there and still had time and energy left for the pool in the afternoon and an after dinner bonus in Disneyland. What fun!
