@Jeff_AZ - We thought this was the most realistic fake grass we have ever seen. While the blades were all the same height, there were different shades of green on the lawn. We thought it looked pretty good.
It was so hot, we ordered some smoothies as soon as we entered CA Adventure but many people had the same idea! We had to wait. So we picked up one of these since there was no line to buy one.
It was rather sweet. I diluted mines with water.
There were long lines everywhere! And we didn’t buy Genie+. We waited 15 minutes for Silly Symphony and did Incredicoaster twice. Then we window shopped, making notes on things we wanted to buy before finding these friends:
Gawked at the fabulous decor in Carsland:
Our tummies were growling around 6 but we stopped ourselves from snacking! We had a Lamplight reservation at 6:30. Unfortunately, they were running late and didn’t seat us for 20 minutes. Dinner was well worth the wait!
We absolutely love their donuts! You can’t beat freshly fried. Just don’t tell my parents we ate fried food fresh out of the fryer! They believe it’s bad for your health!
After dinner, we noticed that people were lined up for World of Color. We didn’t realize that we had to join a virtual queue at noon! It was all DD’s fault! It was her job to plan! May this be a lesson to her! We didn’t join a virtual queue. We didn’t have a dining package. We didn’t have a dessert party. Our options were along the Little Mermaid building or on the bridge to Pixar Pier. Crowds everywhere!
We were supposed to go on rides during the first showing of WOC but ended up trying to scout out a place to watch WOC. Along the Little Mermaid building was too far away and we are too short to be able see. We decided standing on the bridge to Pixar Pier, as close to the Little Mermaid end as possible, would give us the best possible view. We hung out near there during the first showing. When the crowds cleared, we moved in to the railing for the second showing. It was a surprisingly decent view. We don’t have any pictures but the projections were pretty clear!
After we got the railing spot, DD sent me to ask the CMs if there was space inside the ‘amphitheater’. They said to come back towards showtime. If we did that, we would lose our place along the railing. And there was no guarantee we would be able to see that well because we are short. But there were significantly less people during the second showing.
We called it a night.
DD said it was the perfect pace of a day for her. So, I couldn’t be angry about the WOC virtual queue.
