After an epic day in Critter Country, day 3 started with a bang. We plunged straight into Tomorrowland, where the future feels real and every corner buzzes with high-tech magic. Jake and Annie were still sporting our cool new merch from Critter Country, and it felt like the perfect way to transition into a whole new world.
Stepping into the Future
The moment we entered Tomorrowland, I felt like I was entering the future. Leaving behind the cozy rustic vibes, we were surrounded by neon lights, sleek designs, and interactive displays. Just like you’d stepped into a sci-fi movie. Jake and Annie were immediately drawn to a giant digital wall that lit up at the touch of a finger. Bill and Ella ran off to check out all the funky gadgets. I had to chase them before they disappeared into the crowd. A Mom can never have a moment of peace after all. Henry, with his classic dad humor, kept quipping about his “old-school” brain trying to process all the futuristic tech. It was a fun, energetic vibe that had all of us in high spirits.
Riding into the Future
Our first stop was a ride that promised a trip through outer space. We hopped onto a futuristic coaster that whisked us past glowing planets and cosmic landscapes. Bill’s eyes went wide with wonder, and Ella squealed every time the ride took a sudden twist. Jake led the charge, cheering us on, while Annie couldn’t stop snapping photos of the dazzling effects. Their Dad kept cracking jokes about needing a software update afterwards. I agreed because I sometimes truly wonder if he got a bug as his face looks like error 404 every time I signal him to keep an eye on the kids. Sorry, I don’t know why my blog always turns into ranting sessions because of our cool Dad here.
Exploring Techy Treasures
After the ride, we wandered around Tomorrowland, checking out all the cool interactive exhibits. I found myself pausing to watch the kids go wild with a touch-screen game that lit up the entire wall. Jake explained how it worked, while Annie captured every hilarious moment on her phone. Bill and Ella were busy racing each other through futuristic mazes, their laughter filling the air. Even Henry got in on the action for a bit to impress his kids. Remember this guy kept insisting that he was too “old” for all this high-tech fun when I told him to have fun first.
Snack Break on a Galactic Scale
Of course, all that futuristic excitement made us hungry. We found a snack stand that looked like it was straight out of a space station. I grabbed a cup of glowing lemonade (okay, it was just neon-colored, but it felt cool!), while the kids couldn’t resist picking out “galactic pops” and space cones. Henry even dared me to try a zany-flavored ice cream that promised “cosmic crunch.” We all shared a laugh and a few snacks, taking a brief break to recharge before the next part of our day.
Onto the Next Adventure
With our energy renewed and our minds buzzing with visions of rockets and lasers, we decided not to call it a day just yet. Instead of heading back to the hotel, we made a quick detour—because guess what? The galaxy is calling. As we left Tomorrowland behind, the kids couldn’t stop chatting about droids and lightsabers, and I knew exactly where we were headed next.
We’re off to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge! I can already hear the excited chatter—Jake is all set to explore every spaceship, Annie is itching to snap more photos of those epic scenes, and Bill and Ella are just thrilled at the thought of meeting some real-life Star Wars characters. Henry, in typical fashion, is busy joking about his “space-age” dad’s moves.
Stay tuned as we continue our Disneyland adventure in a galaxy far, far away!
