Started off this rather hot afternoon heading for Disneyland. Stopped by the newly remodeled Mad Hatter then headed down Main Street turning right into Tomorrowland. Grabbed a Fastpass for Buzz then wandered by Space Mountain and Innoventions on my way up to the Monorail platform for Sub Lagoon shots. Then cut past the Castle on my way to Carnation. Caught the 2:30 College Band set then headed into Frontierland. Walked along the Rivers of America and out to Critter Country, along the way saw the Captain Jack walk around. Made the cricle and then back along the Rivers and found a shady spot to watch the 3:30 Bootstrappers set. Afterwards hopped in line for Pirates since it was only 20 minutes and I just missed the Columbia setting sail. The line took a bit longer than thought, closer to 30 minutes. After disembarking headed over to the landing to see if I could get onto the Columbia which was just coming into dock. Unfortunately I learned that it was the last voyage of the day (it was 4:30). So caught the last Bootstrappers set and headed for Tom Sawyer Island, where I had not been for quite a while. Walked around and tried to get some pictures I wanted since it was not crowded at all. Then headed back to the mainland. Walked along the Rivers of America and then past Big Thunder and around the Big Thunder trail on my way into Fantasyland. Walked through the Castle and down Main Street to the Opera house. Enjoyed the A/C and looked around the exhibits while waiting for the film to begin. After the conclusion walked over to the Flag Pole for the 6:00pm Flag Retreat which was to start in a couple minutes. Then headed across the Esplanade and into DCA. Grabbed a bite to eat at Award Wieners and then hopped on Monsters Inc since there was no line. Walked back out of the Backlot and over to Bugsland to see what was new, nothing really, so continued on to the Bay Area then around GRR before ending up at the Grand Californian. Walked through the Lobby and out to Downtown Disney. Stopped to check on the progress of the Vault 28 store before making a U-turn and heading back to Disneyland. Walked down Main Street and headed for Adventureland and NOS to see how bad the Pirates line looked. It was beyond my threshold so continued on and grabbed a couple Slash Mountain pictures then stopped by the the Haunted Mansion which had no line at all and went for a ride. Walked back along the Rivers of America and into Frontierland. Ended up in the Hub and decided to double back to Adventureland and visit the Tiki Room. After the show it was approx. 8:30 and the crowd was starting to line up for Remember and I decided to join in since I had never seen the show from right in front of the Castle yet and it was on my to do list. So pulled up a seat and waited just under an hour for the show. Once the show was over walked through the masses and headed for the tram and back to the garage to head home for the day.

For Comparisons to other trips or more park miles click here to visit our park Miles Section.

Note: These totals may be skewed because the pedometer is zero'd when we start and then left alone and read when we leave. So attractions, and other things may cause extra "steps" to be counted. The pedometer that we use basically measures up/down motion as a step, so if your standing in line and moving up and down it may be counting steps, etc.. so the total distances traveled and steps may be off.. so use these as rough distance comparisons between trips and they may not be accurate in terms of actual distance traveled.
