Rainy Two Year Anniversary Trip Report

Hello everyone!! Well last weekend me and my boyfriend Alex (A new mice chat member!) spent the weekend at the Disneyland Resort celebrating our Two year anniversary, sorry to say i don't have a lot of pictures to share because it was raining and our camera is not the best. But here we go!!

We left to DL on Friday 2/6 right after i got off of work and say the weirdest thing on the freeway!


A bunny taped to a truck?! I feel bad for him...

We continued our journey to the Disneyland Hotel



Check into the Dreams Tower and checked out the view


Loved it!

Oh! And check out our SWEET Room keys!!

GO DONALD!!!

We stayed in the room for a bit, just relaxing, getting some rest before we headed out for rainy day fun! By the time we left the room it was dark and extremely wet! So first things first, i bought an umbrella and the new Stitch pins for my Alex, we've become addicted to pins!! Then off we go to Disneyland which was EMPTY!!! Yes!!!! So of course we ran to FNSV because we hadn't been on yet.

I'm very excited!!

Here we go!


Unfortunately no pictures came out so use that imagination!!

Next we ran over to the Matterhorn because we're crazy and let me just say that the Matterhorn in the rain is AWESOME!!!

Not a very good picture but we're drenched by this point

Next we decided to run around


Then check out IASW!!
WARNING....I suck at taking pictures so prepare yourself!




I love Alice in Wonderland!!


Mulan and Mushu!


And here's my favorite Donald Duck!!


And Alex's favorite Stitch!


We actually rode IASW like three times since there was no line so why not? At this point it was almost 11 so we decided to head back to the hotel room. But first, I love the teacups so i wanted a picture with no one around!



We got to the room and found a little surprise waiting for us!!


How romantic!!!!!




And that concludes day one. Be back in a bit to go on with Jennifer's adventures at DL!!

See ya real soon!!

I'd just like to state that I treat my travel buddy, Dopey, better than that poor bunny!

Re: Rainy Two Year Anniversary Trip Report

Okay, time for part two!
The next day it was a gloomy morning and soon enough it started to rain again! First we stopped by City Hall to get our anniversary buttons then went for a walk around.


We had some lunch at Rancho del Zocalo and it was awesome then saw that the Mark Twain was about to leave so we ran aboard! Turns out that Alex had never been on it before!




For some reason i made this face

don't know why....scary!







You can't really tell but it's raining here


Next we decided to head over to DCA to grab a drink!



As you can see we're soaked!

Look! A rainbow!!

Can you see it?

Since we were soaked anyway we jumped onto The Grizzly River Run!

The aftermath!

Well i don't have anymore pictures to share unfortunately because of the rain but the park wasn't very full so we ran around and jumped from ride to ride and once the sun went down we hung out at the Lost Bar over at The Disneyland Hotel and went back to the room to order room service for dinner.

The next morning it was Sunday and we started missing our puppy Moscow who we left with his dog sitter so we decided to go home instead of going back to the park again. But i did take home two Disneyland Hotel Robes that came with our rose petal turndown!! Now i always wear it!!



Well, i hope you enjoyed my trip report!!

That room has a killer view! Never been up in that tower. I'm incredibly jealous! Cool pics.
