We left home at 5am for our short drive to Disneyland and the Grand Californian Hotel. We checked in just before 6 am and were let into DCA for early entry at 7am.

Didn't get much done. Went to RSR which was not running, but let everyone in line. We finally left the line and Jessica went to ride on TOT. We did a few other things at DCA before heading over to Disneyland.

Being a Sunday... it was very busy and very crowded. We went to Haunted Mansion Holiday and the Halloween Carnival at BTR. It was crowded there and hot. Will have to explore it more later on.

We headed back to the hotel to check up on the room. Found out with the villas you don't get your room until very late. They were kind enough to put a rush on the housekeeping to get us in the room. We have a great room with a Paradise Pier view of DCA. I had asked for a sharps container. Housekeeping brought me a container full of used syringes and needles Um.. no. I called down to the operator/guest services to let them know and they were like WHAT???? They were so sorry. They kept calling me trying to rectifying the situation. They asked what our favorite character was. Jessica likes Stitch among many of the Disney characters. The lead from the hotel guest services showed up at our door with a Stitch pillow pet and an envelope with fastpasses. WOW... how nice and unexpected.
Finally got the container...a new one

We headed to DCA to use our previous fp for RSR and then over to Disneyland for Jessica to pin trade and see Fantasmic. While waiting for Fantasmic, she discovered her Glow with the Show Ears didn't glow. On the way back to the room, we stopped at the Emporium and talked to one of the CM's. I didn't have a recipt. They still exchanged them for us. Again... a little Disney magic.

Little bits of magic can really add up to a great day.

Tomorrow...
A Royal Gathering, a run to Target and hopefully pool time. It is going to be triple digits.
