Walking along the hideous green tile of level 4 (Goofy) of the massive Disneyland parking structure. Upon leaving the California Adventure park I realized that that entire park was built on the site of the old Disneyland parking lot. The new structure is amazing though, and I'm not sure why I'm telling you all this...

Our entry into the park was facilitated by efficient tram service.

"R" is for Bobby Billy (and Glenn) at the entrance to the park. The "R" is part of "C A L I F O R N I A".

Our first stop was A Bug's Land featuring amusements of all sorts based on the popular Disney/Pixar film of the related name. Mostly low-key stuff except (big exception here) for the 3-D show. While cool and neat and 3-D, it was actually pretty unnerving in a few spots!

Here we are riding Heimlich's Chew Chew Train. Definitely a "baby ride," but it got us off to a nice start.

The watermelon on the HCCT. Soon after this, Heimlich eats too many animal crackers and belches. Lots of laughs from his passengers.

Here we've met up with Claire and Teresa. Our tour guides for the day, Robert and Claire, are studying the map.

This is part of the Condor Flats area, meant to recreate the history of California as a testing ground for airplane and rocketry design. The "smoke" here is actually water vapor, and is very welcome...in July.

Steph, Claire, and Robert walking on the ropes. Lots of rope walks in this section of the park. Based on the Brother Bear movie, this area of the park is almost like a playground. It's also got a lot of educational interactivity built in.

Climbing over another log, and making it look like dancing.

Robert is very concerned about the Fire Danger level. Clearly, if one can simply rotate the dial one can fully establish the real level.

Another cool log tunnel thing. Much hilarity ensued.

Couldn't resist taking a picture of the fake road sign. :)

A ferriswheel with swinging gondola cars. Adds a little bit of "danger" to the normally staid ferriswheel experience!

Lots of fun, even if it does only last 30 seconds.

And after the safe landing, there is much rejoicing. [Yea...]

On our way the swinging ferriswheel, we took note of the vomit guards surrounding each insane person who chooses to ride the launch-you-up-400-miles-
per-hour-and-hope-you-
don't-lose-your-lunch-
but-if-you-do-you-can-
just-vomit-on-yourself
ride.
