Trip Log:
Started off this cool spring day hopping on a tram and heading toward the parks. First stop DCA. Wandered down the parade route and out to the Pier. Walked around to the Fun Wheel hoping for a ride, but the line was almost to the ramp and thus almost 40 minutes probably so I kept walking around. Stopped at the SS Rustworthy for some shots and made my way around to the Zephyr, which was closed due to winds. Continued on through Paradise Park and then the Wharf and Farm areas on my way to Fliks. Made the circle there and then headed for entrance plaza. Stopped by to watch the celebrity chef of the day, Jeffrey Saad. Then I headed down the backlot to see what was going on. There was a choir competition on the stage and some new walls near Tower of Terror. I turned around and headed back toward the entrance and then over to Disneyland. Hopped on the train and took it around to Toontown where I disembarked and hiked up the hill to Toontown to see if there was anything new there, made the circle and then headed back through Fantasyland, around the Big Thunder trail and the Rivers of America on my way out to Critter Country. Doubled back to Frontierland and stopped to watch the Billys at the Golden Horseshoe. After the show I headed for the Tree House for some more pictures of the Rivers and then wandered through Adventureland and back to Main Street. Ended up heading back to DCA and caught a little of another culinary demonstration by Jonathan Rollo then strolled through Condor Flats and saw pilot Goofy out for some pictures. Decided to head back down the Backlot and saw Chef Goofy out working with the Jr Chefs, so I stopped to watch that show. Afterwards it was back to the Sunshine Plaza to Jammin Chefs - Whats Cooking show before heading to Taste Pilots for dinner. After dinner walked through Condor Flats, around GRR and out to the Pier. Made my way around to the Fun Wheel which had maybe a 10 minute wait so I lined up and went for a spin. Then made my way around to Paradise Park and over to the Blue Sky Cellar. Nothing new so continued on and headed for Disneyland. Decoded to stop and see the Volunteer Cavalcade before heading to Tomorrowland. Stopped by Captain EO and then roamed out to the Matterhorn where they were cycling some sleds, including the new one. Continued around the Matterhorn and into Fantasyland. Walked around the Castle and into Frontierland. Ended up circling around to Adventureland and then heading back to DCA. Made my way out to the Pier. The Zephyr was running again so went for a spin. Then hung out in Paradise Park to see if they were going to do any World of Color testing.. they really did not so I made another loop of the Pier and then headed for the Backlot. Took some pictures just as the park was closing. Decided to head for the tram and Parking structure and watch the fireworks from there. After the show it was time to head home.

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.
