Day Three!

 Day three was interesting for Adelaide, she woke up feeling no good at all, and running a fever, so she and I decided to sit the first half of the day out, and sent everyone else on their merry way.

And on that merry way they met a Storm Trooper!

 And had a good climb through Tarzans Treehouse


They rode space mountain

Some enjoyed it more than others:)


They met Aladdin!

So after getting a little bit of extra rest, Adelaide said that she would like to go back to the parks, so we walked on over... mostly I carried her. It was hot, but we made it and met up with our group in time to do some souvenir shopping.
The girls picked out some mouse ears, and then met the mouse himself!

And the Minnie!

 Our little family split off from the main group for a little while so that we could take things slow and easy for Adelaide. She was super cautious about what she was willing to go on, a very nervous sort of Adelaide. We thought the little train ride around Disneyland would be a good speed for her, but once it got moving she got very nervous saying it was, "too fast, too fast! I wanna go home!" So she and Jordan got off at the first stop, while Rue, Tillie and I went the entire way around. While they were waiting for us to get back, they saw Minnie walking by, she had somewhere to be, but she let Adelaide (and Perry) walk with her for a little bit, and I couldn't love this picture more.

After that we headed over to California Adventure to meet back up with the rest of our group.
We tried out Heimlichs Chew Chew train- possibly THE mildest ride in either of the parks.

But again, it was too much for Adelaide, so shortly after meeting up with Flick
 she and I set off to head back to the motel, and left the rest of the group to enjoy their day.

On our way out of the park we passed by a Disney Junior show that was just about to start so we decided to head in and see if she could take it. She started out really nervous, but by the end, she really ended up enjoying it.
It was a pretty cute show.

After that she seemed to mellow a little bit, and wanted to go on the Ariel ride, so we did that and then rode King Tritons Carousel.
There was no line for the carousel, so the operator let the riders keep riding without having to get off after every turn, so we rode this one for a while.
We didn't end up heading back to the motel early, and we just had a really mellow, slow going afternoon, doing whatever Adelaide wanted to do. It was a really sweet day for her and me together.
And I think the rest of the group had a good time too;)

Adelaide next to the GINORMOUS bear in front of the Grizzly River Rapids when we were touching base with the group at one point.

We lasted the rest of the day!
Here we are heading back to the motel, Adelaide sporting her fancy, light up Mickey ears.
Honestly, this walk back was NOT great, but we survived another fun and magical day:)

Aw, love that pic with Minnie Mouse :). Day 3 really was all over the place- but at least my kids got to ride Tower of Terror over and over again.
