DISNEYLAND DAY 2013


Well our 4th annual Disneyland Day was AMAZING!!! Seriously, it's always so much fun but this was just great. Not to mention it was CANNON'S VERY FIRST TRIP TO DISNEYLAND EVER!!!!

The intense Mousehunt challenge came down to the wire! But in the end, it was Nick (aka "Sarge" from Toy Story) who took home the trophy! This year's competition consisted of a mix of Charades, Guess-that-tune, Pictionary and Trivia. The audience had to try and guess what the contestants were acting/singing/drawing and it was the funnest game yet! I'd expect we'll be doing the same thing each year from now on since it was so much fun!

Good luck to all next year! Thanks again to everyone (even those who didn't go) for making this such a fun day! See you all next year when our 5th official Dinseyland Day will be themed in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Tiki Room!! Mark your calendars for March 8th, 2014!!!

 Bug's Land was Cannon's first stop, he LOVED the splash zone
And his first ride ever was...
 Heimlich's chew-chew train! He loved it!!





 He was pointing and "ooh"-ing all day!
 The groups first ride together!





 Brit... don't puke!
He loved watching the cars zoom by

 The new Cars Land is seriously AMAZING!! Hope you all get to experience it soon if you haven't already

Great shot of Brandon getting soaked on Grizzly River Run
 Craig... you can't wear a poncho, that's CHEATING!
 Mom & Cannon couldn't be happier
 Now over to Disneyland!!
 Wow, Cannon was all smiles all day!
 Until he finally crashed on Pirates!
 Sorry Nick, going to have to try harder to beat me!!
What an unforgettable day! See you all next year!!!

Marvel in the Parks

Well, it was inevitable... Marvel is now officially being entered into the Disney Parks cannon. Hong Kong Disneyland will "put in place a themed area featuring ‘Marvel Heroes’, the first of its kind in the world."

I for one am excited... with the pending Star Wars expansions and the success of the Avengers I think Disney will be putting good money into this. And I'm glad they'll start at a foreign park so that they can figure out what works best! And it'll be fun to watch it all come together.

Test Track

One of my favorite rides on the eastern relative of our beloved Disneyland is EPCOT's Test Track. They recently completely re-imagined it and I found this cool short video showing the new style (very Tron'y)



We are going to Disney World with our friends this May and we couldn't be more excited!!!
