July Return Trip to Disneyland Resort: Part 1 - Disney California Adventure

Last week we made our way back to the Disneyland Resort for our second Disney trip since the parks opened. We hadn't planned on making any return trips prior to the parks re-introducing some kind of Annual Pass program, but, well, it was a big couple of days for our family. Something I'll get into in the second half of this update later this week. In the meantime, enjoy Day 1 of our update at Disney California Adventure. 

Be sure to check out our video comparing the parks from early June to late July below.

Welcome back to the Disneyland Resort. Much easier time getting through Security than in June. Still, Disneyland does need to improve their entry process.

I would buy all of these if they sold them. But we'll get back to you tomorrow Disneyland

It was a beautiful morning at DCA, we decided to rope drop Radiator Springs Racers.

Just before rope drop, heading to Cars Land

RSR has one of the best queues 

Heading into Avengers Campus, first time we've used this entrance.

Captain Marvel making sure everything is on the up and up

Spidey, still a super fun ride. Not sure it still needs a virtual queue though.

First time checking out some of the food in Avengers Campus

Lol, stand-by.

Now THAT'S a giant pretzel

Hey Guardians, we'll get back to you later, we were headed to Animation and AC!

One of a few things they got completely right on opening day 

Grizzly Peak is the one of the other things they got right on day one 

It was a beautiful day on Paradise, err, Pixar Pier

Back to Avengers Campus and some fun with the Guardians of the Galaxy

This thing was back, so of course we had to walk all over it

I love this ride so much and it may be my favorite in the park

Always looks like he's holding a Cheez-It

We finally tried some Avengers drinks! 

Who knew that Dale was a Variant?

Absolutely LOVED the new Coco scene in Philharmagic. Can't wait to see this show in full screen in October at Magic Kingdom.

When are they adding Miss Minutes to Philharmagic?

Thanks for traveling west Walt! Be sure to check back later this week for Day 2!
