Today at Disneyland: More Halloween Time

We have been working ahead on lessons all week so we could take the day off and meet friends to enjoy a final day of Halloween Time at Disneyland. Ah, the perks of homeschooling!


I took my first ride on Space Mountain's Ghost Galaxy today. I liked it better than I expected. The effects were fairly mild, and the ride being extra-dark meant the dips and curves were a little more of a surprise than usual. It was a nice seasonal pick-me-up for a ride that's now over three decades old.


The park was relatively uncrowded today. We were able to ride all four mountains, Indy, and Jungle Cruise within about three hours' time.


After riding on Big Thunder Mountain, we strolled back to take a look at the decorations at Big Thunder Ranch.


It was a beautiful day, with temps in the low to mid 80s.

We took a quick walk through Disney's California Adventure to look at Candy Corn Acres.

Work goes on at the future World of Color seating area:

It was a wonderful, relaxing morning. Before we know it, Disneyland will be decorated for Christmas...we could see the Christmas tree backstage as we rode the tram to the Mickey and Friends parking lot!
