Day 9 - Tueday 10th October 2006

Last day at Disneyland :(
We were up pretty early this morning with plans to be at the park by the 10am opening. We pretty much did all the shows yesterday and Toni only needs 2 more autographs to fill up her 2nd book so today is serious rides day. Luggage space is becoming seriously limited already so we decided to head around the corner to the local post office to send some stuff home. This was probably a mistake....
The place was packed being a day after a public holiday. We had to wait in line for about 1/2 hour to get our customs forms etc so that we could go and put our boxes together so that we could wait in line for 1/2 an hour again to send them. Thankfully it only cost us about $15US a box to send so that wasn't too bad, but we only sent really light unbreakable things home.
So we were late getting down to the park and once again it was pretty busy. We didn't realise how good we had it Tuesday/Wednesday last week were the parks were all but deserted. Toni was able to get Cruella De Ville and then we had some mickey pancakes for breakfast and then riding began.

Using fastpasses we were able to pretty much walk onto all of the major rides in Disneyland one last time. During the course of the day we finally saw Donald Duck who was the only major character we hadn't seen all week and Toni got his autograph to round out her 2nd book.

The girls also got to ride the dumbo ride that they had been hanging out all week to do and we spent 45 mins in line to ride the 90sec kid ride Peter Pan (which is Fast Passed Enabled) but it made Toni very happy.
We finally had a corn dog which we had been planning on doing the whole time we had been here but had never been hungry enough due to the enormous serving sizes here. It is basically a dagwood dog but with corn start between the sausage and the batter. Still it was very nice.
It got to about 5:30pm and with heavy hearts we said our good buys to disneyland, after emptying our wallets one final time in the gift shop.
Tomorrow... New York New York
