Madhatters T Party

After an unexpected visit to the local mall to buy yet another suitcase, we headed to Disney for our last night.
Two VERY lucky girls with their 14 day Disney passes

While we had been there, the Haunted Mansion had been closed so they could take down the Halloween/ Christmas overlay they put up every year.  This morning was the first time it had been opened so we headed straight for it. 
There was a real difference in the number of people who were at the parks.  It was the start of a long weekend, and the weather was beautiful so there were people everywhere.  There was also going to be a half- marathon held at Disneyland on the Sunday, so lots of people were there for that too.

Anyway, we made it into the Haunted Mansion, and it was as neat as I remembered it.
Lining up

Should I be scared?

Ahh, what am I doing?

Along the waiting area



It was so hot, it was time for a cold treat.

A Mickey icecream sandwich

A frozen chocolate covered banana


 
We hadn't spent much time in Tomorrowland so we headed over to watch the 3D Michael Jackson short movie, Captain EO, and then we went into Inoventions.  Here we saw a newly designed robot...it was quite incredible to watch.

We headed over to the Monorail which we took to Downtown Disney.

Where we ate on our first night


At Disneyland Hotel

The Lego store in Downtown Disney



At the Marceline Store...a candy apple.  We got the girls one to share...under the chocolate there was a layer of caramel, then a Granny Smith apple.  They couldn't eat it...it was way too sweet.


A window display at the Downtown Disney disney store...just for Flynn.

Heading to DCA
We headed back into Disney California Adventures.  The plan was to do Midway Mania and Soaring over California again, and to also watch the Mad Hatters T party.  We waited 50 minutes to do Midway Mania, but had fastpasses for Soaring, so got straight on....and also got back on it right on closing.

A marshmallow Mickey tail...way too sweet so it ended up in the bin too

Wasting time while waiting in a queue...all our new runners we were wearing

The interesting Mad Hatters T party

It was a great last night.
