The Land of Disney Pt. 3


When we left Star Wars land, we headed back to Fantasyland for a ride on the King Arthur Carrousel and the Mad Tea Party. I love the teacups; I try to spin that saucer as fast as possible and the kids love it. We met Alice and ended up at “it’s a small world”. The line took 35 minutes, but we had more food in line to sustain us, the mood was good. Gen was dishing out crackers with brie and trailer-made apricot jam, delicious. 


Next stop was Tomorrowland for Autotopia. The kids love driving cars. The car keeps bouncing into the edges of the track, but they don’t care. Aisling by herself, John and Mom, Charlotte and myself. Next, Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters was a shooting game; I was lighting it up, but John kept stealing my gun. We met Mulan before riding the Astro Orbiter on our way out of Tomorrowland. 


Gen interrogated the information booth, and they came up with an itinerary for the evening. We finished up our rides and headed to the start of the Main Street Electrical Parade. We positioned ourselves for a great view of the parade and we were told to move. Gen and John found a spot at the front while the girls stood on a railing with me. They had a “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” video projected over the front of “it’s a small world” as an appetizer. The kids have been singing that song for months. 


The Main Street Electrical Parade that followed was different and thoroughly enjoyable. They wait until dark and have lighted floats drive down the street with characters, animatronics, music, and dancers. The dragon in this parade was from Pete’s Dragon and disappears in the street. John was loving every second. The girls would wave to each character.

Wednesday, May 25th –Lake Mead National Recreation Area to Las Vegas, Nevada – Day 104  We woke up in our roadside turn out and got ready for the day. Our plan was to go for a swim at Lake Mead, see the Hoover Dam and head back into Vegas. The morning was stifling hot, we were looking forward to the swim.   We drove to the visitor centre at Lake Mead Recreation Centre. We could see Lake Mead on the way. The water was well below the high-water line on the rocks. At the visitor centre we got our passport stamped, filled our water bottles, and received junior ranger booklets. The air conditioning was so nice we set up the kids to work on their booklets and hung around. The kids finished up enough activities that they were sworn in by a very nice ranger before we left.   We decided to go see the Hoover Dam first. We dropped the trailer in the parking lot. We heard it might need to be opened at the security checkpoint and we couldn’t be bothered. The H...
