2-6 July 2017
Steve and I celebrated our 25th anniversary at Disneyland (even though our actual anniversary was in march). Flew into Long Beach airport (small but closer to Disneyland), got our rental car (first time starting a car with a button!), and went to the beach to play in the ocean. :). Thai for dinner. Mmmm
Monday. Disneyland first thing. The rope drop at opening was cool.
Pirates…so awesome! The pirate band also cool.
We did a bunch of fantasyland, including Peter Pan and Mr Toad. Also saw Mary Poppins and Bert on the carousel.
We love splash mountain!
We did go back to the hotel each afternoon for a few hours but Steve still felt the need to commandeer a bench. 🙂
Tuesday we mostly spent at California Adventure. They had some neat stuff for the 4th of July, like a cool flag ceremony and a special segment before world of color. 
The new guardians of the galaxy ride is cool. We went on it 4 times. 
Steve’s first time on Racers. He loved Cars Land and the backdrop of Radiator Springs
We did grizzly peak river run a couple of times. Got pretty soaked the second time. 
We had dinner at the Wine Country Trattoria. Yummy food. I got an iPhone 7 a few days before the trip and had a lot of fun with the live photo trick. 
Steve really liked World of Color. 
Wednesday was also not very crowded. We got fast passes for racers first and met a guy named Teo. Had to take a picture for my Teo. 
Finally got my Dole Whip complete with the complementary hair umbrella. 🙂
Haunted mansion with its predictable hitchhiking ghost. 
We had a small world boat to ourselves during the electrical parade. 
Dinner at Cafe Orleans. Great pommes frites and salmon. 
Had a delicious raspberry macaron shaped like Mickey while watching the electrical parade at the Jolly Holiday bakery. 
We saved fireworks for the last night and then they got cancelled. Sad face. But we did cram the last few hours with many rides including the teacups. 
Flew home on Thursday. What a great vacation. 🙂
