Mr. Toad is Good

Toad is good. Fun ride. Short line. Put your hand in the toad's mouth so you can catch the flu or COVID or something. Good times!

Long story:

Big Thunder Mountain at Night

The families made their way over to Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and as they walked up, the mountain loomed ahead of them, lit up like a beacon in the night. They waited in line for only a few minutes—complaining about how five minutes felt like forever, of course—before being loaded into the rickety train cars.

“This is the wildest ride in the wilderness… at night!” Steve yelled as the train took off into the darkness.

The cool night air whipped around them as the train hurtled through the tunnels and across rickety bridges. The shadows of the rocks made everything seem more mysterious and thrilling. As they rounded a corner, they passed the famous goat holding a stick of dynamite in its mouth.

“There’s the goat!” Mandy yelled, pointing. “Remember last time it freaked me out?”

“I love that goat,” Zac shouted, gripping the side of the car.

By the time they finished the ride, the kids were buzzing with excitement. “Big Thunder at night is way better than during the day,” Christian Jr. said, wide-eyed.

“Agreed,” Roman added. “Let’s make that a new rule—always at night.”

Jungle Cruise: The Night Expedition

Next stop: Jungle Cruise. They hustled over, eager to experience the famous nighttime version of the ride. They climbed aboard the boat, where the Skipper was already cracking jokes before they even left the dock.

As they drifted through the dark jungle, the lights on the animatronic animals seemed a little more convincing, and the darkness made the terrible puns hit even harder.

“And here we have the back side of water!” the Skipper announced with great fanfare.

Steve groaned, shaking his head. “I’ll never understand why that joke has endured this long.”

The kids, meanwhile, were laughing way too hard. “It’s classic!” Kaiden argued.

“And over here we have the rarest sight of all—people still hungry for churros after eating so many today,” the Skipper quipped as the boat passed by another group.

The families disembarked, still chuckling over the cheesy humor, and decided it was time for one last meal before calling it a night.

Churros!

 The churros at Disneyland hit different.  I once ate two churros at the Phoenix Zoo and they were not good.  Anther time, we made churros at home.  They were fine.  The churros at Costco are pretty darn good, but man, the Disneyland churros are awesome!  Part of it is the ambiance surrounding the churro cart-it's the happiest place on earth.  Another part of it is that they are really good!  When we go this fall you can bet I'll eat a whole bunch of churros! Look at this kid!  His mom is making him take a picture, but all he wants to do is plow through that churro like it's the last one at the park! We don't have any really young kids anymore, but you gotta start 'em out young eating churros! Isn't it crazy how much joy a piece of fried dough can bring? This is a Red Hot churro dipped in cream cheese icing.  It was good.  Not the best one I've had, but good.  In the comments you should tell me which churro has been your favori...

Ducks of Disneyland

Image
Yes, this is a post about ducks.  And I know this is a blog about Disneyland, but these ducks live at Disneyland! There are quite a few ducks at Disneyland.  In fact, there is an Instagram account called @ducksofdisneyland.  Now, I haven't been on Insta in a long time, so that account may not exist anymore.  Maybe drop a note in the comments to tell me if it does or does not. These ducks are NOT scared of humans.  This first picture is of Jenna trying to take a selfie with a duck! The ducks don’t always have it easy, though.   Sometimes they get trampled by people.   Sometimes they get got by the feral cats that roam the park at night.   Sometimes other, larger birds, attack the ducklings.   But, these ducks totally live at Disneyland!   Small price to pay to actually live at the park! In case you really like ducks, here are some videos:

Autopia Go Carts

This ride...it's not really a ride.  It looks cool because you get to drive a car. I'll be that was a real treat for lots of people when the park opened in 1955.  The issue now is that we've all seen cars, ridden in cars, and know all about cars.  The novelty of driving a car is long gone.  In fact, in order for us to even get to the Autopia attraction we have to ride in a car for a good 10+ hours! The other thing about this ride is how slow the cars actually go.  The last time I rode this ride I was pressing my foot so hard on the gas pedal and we topped out at a whopping 4mph.  That is just a bit north of walking speed.  It's a bit disappointing. The last complaint I have about this ride is the weird guiderail in the middle of the track.  That thing makes it really difficult to goof off as you drive along.  I think you could probably just push the gas pedal and never touch the steering wheel.  That guiderail will keep you in the middle...
