Here is a travel guide for a family of six to be able to spend 3 fun filled days at Disneyland.
#1- Paperwork
This trip was brought to you by a boy doing lots of work and paperwork to pay for it :)
#2-Four little monkeys sleeping in a bed
We used Hotwire to book a hotel in Vegas for our 7 hour sleep over. All four kids shared a bed. Our hotel in Anaheim had bunk beds, a pull out sofa and a king bed so they were more spread out later.
#3- Looks of absolute happiness (mom included)
#4- Meeting your favorite characters including Ariel who is like the best thing ever to a two year old girl. We were able to meet a lot of characters but I won't include pictures of all :)
#5- Be prepared for at least one melt down a day/ per child.
#6- A quick trip to the beach. Our kids had never been to the beach before. THEY LOVED IT and we need to get them back soon.
#7- If you have an 8 year old boy the Lego store in Downtown Disney is almost just as exciting as Disneyland
#8- Cute pictures of the little ones while you take advantage of the "rider swap"
#9- Goofy's Kitchen. This place was great. Even though it was a buffet the chef was nice enough to come out and walk around to every entree with Jim and show him what he can and can't eat. Also he made Jim a special order gluten free pizza, browines and cookies. Other places we ate at were so nice to have gluten free items for Jim. He had a hamburger with bun! Here is Jim with the chef and Goofy!
#10- Tired! Sometimes the "happiest place on earth" can be pretty exhausting too!
We had an amazing time and it was a lot of fun!
