Inappropriate viewing for bears

Shellie May! Is that Rob Schneider???

You know that is not appropriate viewing for someone as small as you! I think you need to stay back in the room and think about what you've done.

Shellie May pouted. "It's not fair."

"Don't worry," said Tiny Shellie May.

"We will keep you company!" said Tiny Duffy.

In retrospect, leaving Shellie May with those two troublemakers may not have been the wisest idea, but Shellie May didn't pick up any naughty words, so I guess it turned out OK.

Truck Stop with Duffy and Shellie May

It's reverse Nessa and I think she's a monster!

"I am not sure I like truck stops," said Tiny Shellie May.

Road Trip with Duffy

This was the view along much of our trip. You could make out parts of Route 66 sometimes (I think).

"Hello."

It definitely reminded me of Cars!

Goodbye to the Grand Californian

So we're finally leaving the Grand Californian! SNIFF

But we had one more day of vacation, so yeah, let's follow along!

We took the northernmost route from Anaheim to Prescott, Arizona, near Route 66. We saw a billboard for Dairy Queen and finally got there!

DAIRY QUEEN

On our way out of the Grand Californian

I know it's crooked, but this is so pretty!

Double-chocolate breakfast at White Water Snacks!

This was our Halloween candy bag. I got rid of mine (trying to overcome my packrat tendencies) but after seeing what a great movie Wreck-It Ralph was, I wished I'd kept it! Oh well.

Goodbye from the Grand Californian!

Looking up at our room.

Tiny Bears near Splash Mountain

"We do not want to get our fur wet," the bears said in unison.

OK then.

I got SO WET that I had to wring out my socks! The water somehow ruined my BFF's hoodie too. Creepy.

Splish...splish...splish...golly I was wet.

The stupid thing is I brought flip flops with the express purpose of wearing them for water rides! D'oh!

This was about 1:08 PM on Friday, November 2, 2012. That's a pretty-looking wait time sign. I think we must have broken Splash Mountain though! :)

I think crowds were lower because there were no fireworks that night--they were doing a parade filming the next day, so the castle was blocked by a makeshift stage and such.

Tiny Duffy does not like the Haunted Mansion

"This ride is haunted, isn't it?" said Tiny Duffy.

"Don't be a cub," said Tiny Shellie May. "It's just a ride and the ghosts aren't real."

"That is one skinny person," said Tiny Duffy.

"Please can I go back to the hotel?" Tiny Duffy whimpered.

"PLEASE?"

Look! It's the gingerbread house! :) The smell calmed Tiny Duffy a LITTLE, though he was still trembling a little in my hands. Poor tiny bear.

Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May run to Toontown

So for some reason, my mom, my BFF, and Miss D were all exhausted after we ran pretty much nonstop since 3 PM the day before. Whatever.

So the tiny bears and I ran to Toontown for Roger Rabbit Car Toon Spin FPs!

There were dance groups everywhere (getting ready for the parade filming on Saturday).

It was November 1 and Toontown was all set for...Christmas!

Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May hop like bunnies

"Next time we should sit out there!" said Tiny Shellie May.

We walked right on by the Five and Dime show. Maybe I'll see you all next trip!

 

Wanted to get a couple photos of beautiful Buena Vista Street!

"We are going to Disneyland!!"

Yup! We're parkhopping like bunnies. :)

Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May at Flo's V-8 Cafe

Then we were all hungry, so we went to Flo's for breakfast.

My mom got the French Toast (which I understand is basically bread pudding!)

"That looks much better than your pie," said Tiny Duffy.

Granted, but the pie was a lot cheaper!

Waiting for Radiator Springs Racers

"Are we going to ride soon?" asked Tiny Duffy.

"I think so," I said.

"Yay!"

Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May on a bench

Then two members of our party decided to ride California Screamin' in the daytime. I...think I like it better at night. Plus I wanted to get some photos. So the bears and I (and my mom) waited!

My BFF shows off Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May

I had not noticed King Triton also motioning in the background!

Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May on Mickey's Fun Wheel

"I cannot see very well," said Tiny Shellie May.

Tiny Duffy on Luigi's Flying Tires

"Do you think we can have our own tire, Tiny Shellie May?" asked Tiny Duffy.

"I'm not sure," said Tiny Shellie May. "I think it would be a waste of space. Also, I am very petite, so the tire might not move very far under my tiny weight."

"Aw."

Back to Cars Land

"This place looks much more friendly," said Tiny Shellie May.

Back in Cars Land, there was no wait at Luigi's Flying Tires (still our Early Entry day).

"There are no ghosts in this ride, are there?" asked Tiny Duffy. "Also, I do not want to be turned into a ghost."

I assured him he would be fine.

Poor Tiny Duffy at Tower of Terror

"Isn't there another way out?" asked Tiny Duffy.

Actually, there is. I took it the last time I visited Tower of Terror. But this time I was determined to conquer my fears!

My BFF told me that if you scream during the drops, it makes them not bother your stomach so much. And...she was right! Hooray!

Nooo! Don't make me!

"Please do not make me go in there! There are ghosts!"

"There are probably ghosts out here, Tiny Duffy," I said.

"Aaaaaieeeee!!!"

Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May waiting for Tower of Terror

"Please let me just sit here on this magnetic post," said Tiny Duffy.

"What, are you chicken?" asked Tiny Shellie May.

"Yes," said Tiny Duffy.

"Please stop clucking at me, Tiny Shellie May.
