Spring Break - Wednesday

On Wednesday, we packed our bags for an overnite at the Hyatt Regency in Garden Grove and headed for Disneyland, just the two of us. We had lunch at the Mexican restaurant in Adventureland and then embarked on a walking trip to see how long it would take to walk the perimeter paths of the park. We started in New Orleans Square and headed up past Pooh Bear's ride, down through Adventureland and up past Big Thunder Mt. Railroad into Fantasyland, around past the Matterhorn and up into Toon Town, back down past Small World and into Tomorrowland by way of the Nemo submarine ride, around past Star Tours and back down Main Street. It took us a little more than an hour and we figure we probably covered a couple of miles. We definitely weren't power-walking (it's too crowded for that!) and we did sit down in the shade a couple of times. Along the way, we stopped at every Kodak photo spot sign and took a picture. One nice lady in New Orleans Square took pity on us and took the picture for us . . .

This is New Orleans Square with the newly updated Tom Sawyer's Pirate Cove Island.

Here's the Kodak photo spot by Thunder Mtn. Railroad.

Here's the Kodak spot by the Fantasyland Carousel.

Here's the Kodak spot in Toon Town (well actually the photo spot is a fire engine, but there were a bunch of kids in it, go figure).

Here's the Kodak spot for the Matterhorn.

The weather was beautiful (sunny, cold and windy). Sometimes we don't go on any rides at all, we just re-invent ways to see the park from a different perspective. And we have a blast doing it!
