Disneyland Girl Trip

I was suprised to see we had one day left on our Disneyland passes before the summer was blocked out, so we figured we'd tackle the crowds and see how many rides we could actually get on. We got there about 10:30, fully prepared to walk up to a throng of people waiting to get into the park. BUT NO! It was the opposite! We walked onto the tram, walked right through the "security" with no line, and right into Disneyland. I decided that everyone was already in the park and we were about to face the crowds when we tried to ride rides. Again, SURPRISE! No lines? What??? This was to good to be true.
The whole day was like that. We just went on ride after ride waiting about 15 minutes max. to get on any ride we picked. And Sophie, for some reason, got over every fear she had ever had about riding roller coasters - she went on everything! Her favorite ride was Big Thunder Mountain, which we rode about 8 times. It was Mickey Mouse Heaven....
The girls were allowed to get their traditional lollipop treat (the pack of 5 for less than $5.00) after Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain and Winnie the Pooh (notice the shape of the lollipops - yes, we followed the path off of the Pooh Bear ride into the strategically placed candy store). Sophie won the colored tongue contest the girls had.
We stayed until around 10:00 and loved every minute of the day. The weather was perfect, the crowds were small - amazing! I love girl days :)
