Day 3: Bubblicious is born

Thursday April 5th was the 3rd day of our adventure and the 2nd day at Disneyland.  It was a little cooler that day so it was very bright of us not to begin the day on Splash Mountain again.

We began the day on Autotopia.  I was in the front of a long line of our Hunter High group.  When I got in my car I hit the gas and was on my way.  It took me a few minutes to realized that the rest of my group was nowhere to be seen.  At one point I went under a bridge and looked up.  There was Kjersti, whose car was moving extremely slowly with a whole line of students closely behind her.  She was hollering at her car to move faster and everyone behind her was hollering at her.  It made me laugh a lot.
Of course we had to visit It's a Small World.  I LOVE that ride!  They've redone bits of the ride to include Disney characters.  It was so well done!  I could have gond on that ride repeatedly throughout the day.




We had a very relaxing day in Disneyland on Thursday.  We took life at a much slower pace than the day before, which resulted in the students getting bored with us and going off on their own.  Later in the afternoon Kjersti, Josh, and I scouted out a spot for the parade.
And then were joined by this crew.  Tyler, who is sitting to my right became a good buddy during the trip.  He calls Kjersti "Ms. Perky" and seemed to feel the need to give me a nickname.  I tend to get that from a lot of students.  Last year I was "Dude" or "S. Dub," this year I am "Sunshine."  To Tyler I am "Bubblicious."  The name stuck.  He never called me by my real name the rest of the trip.  I guess that means I'm cool...























The parade was fantastic, which is to be expected from Disney.  I just love Disneyland!
After a quick trip back to the hotel to put another layer of clothes on, we made our way back to the park to see Fantasmic.  SO AWESOME!
After Fantasmic we sprinted over to the castle to watch the fireworks.







Disneyland truly is the happiest place on Earth!
