Guest Post: First Disney Trip (Post 3 of 4)

Day three- HOLLYWOOD Studios 

This was the day I was looking forward to.  We had dining plan with Hollywood and Vine with the Disney Junior characters.  My son's FAVORITE was little Einsteins.  It would be my 2YO's 'justin bieber' moment.  I had every camera ready!!!  It was a great experience.  All the characters came to the table and both boys were HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY to see them.   There was a time when my 2YO rested his head on Leo's shoulder and closed his eyes in happiness.  (WORTH IT ALL!!!!!!!!!)

Then we knew we needed to sign 4YO up for Jedi Training.  So we did that.  Then we did star tours.  HOLY MOLY THAT WAS  A W E S O M E.  Just a super star wars fan growing up and it was just well done.  4YO was alittle freaked out and said to the guy next to him "get me outta here"...but in the end it was good.  :0)  Then it was right on to Toy Story Mania.  MY favorite by far of all the rides in Disney.  IT was awesome.  Just great.  I can't really explain it ...it one of those you just have to do it rides.

Indiana Jones stunt show--- AWESOME.  Then it was off to see the characters--  we are pixar fans so we saw Monster Inc, Cars, Jake from Neverland Pirates, we also did the Muppets too.THEN...the moment of my 4YO's life....his shot at beating Darth Vader.  As a mom of 2 boys, I don't get the princess experience so this was pretty close.  All of us lined up with our cameras in hand to capture the moment.  OH BOY-- it didn't disappoint.  He battled Darth Vader with his light saber.  All of cheered.  What an AWESOME experience for a little boy. 

After it was all over, I said to him "Oh MY Goodness, you beat Darth Vader!"  He said, "No I didn't beat him, he's not dead.  But I got a good fight."  Yes, my boy, you did.  PRICELESS.

SCI FI diner  WIN WIN WIN...we LOVED IT the boys loved it kept them busy watching the movies. Really cool experience.  Also they showed a Tom and Jerry movie.  My 4YO's fave...bonus surprise.  Then we stayed for the OSBOURNE Christmas lights.  WOWSER.  That was amazing....Pictures don't do it justice.  My 4YO just said WOW.  Got us right in the Christmas mood. 

Day 4- our choice.

We asked the boys where they wanted to go.  We went to all the parks really so it was up to them to pick the repeat park.  I was thinking MK since we didn't see it all in our tired stupor.  BUT they chose shocker-- HS again...to see the other shows we missed and to see Darth Vadar (again)....so we obliged.

We had to stop in to see the Playhouse Disney show--that was well worth it too.  Bubbles from the ceiling, "treasure" falling from the ceiling..singing and dancing along.  AGAIN-- my 2YO got to see his favorite people- Little Einsteins.  He was in heaven. 

We did get to see the Pixar Friends parade front and center with all of the Pixar movie people that was great.  We missed alot of parades in all of our travles so I was happy we finally saw someothing.  They LOVED it.  They were waving and pointing.  WORTH IT.
