Our First Day at Disneyland--Complete Misery!!

Before we left to go to Disneyland, we knew that it was supposed to be raining in California for at least 4 days of our trip. So we packed accordingly, thinking it would be like the rain we'd seen at Disneyland before. We were sorely mistaken!! California had record breaking rain during the week before Christmas. They had never seen this much rain.
Our first day at Disneyland was a great learning lesson of how unprepared we were. We thought we could just roll up the girls pants a little and protect them with umbrellas and a jacket, but we were totally wrong! We were all soaked from head to toe. To make matters worse, it was also colder than we expected too so the girls especially were Freezing! We were very much troopers though and stayed until closing time. At the end of the night, we were exhausted, soaked, freezing, and questioning what to do now. We could literally wring out Ashley's tennis shoes and her toes (mine too) were so pruny. That's how wet we all were.
We knew this could not continue so we made a plan for Day 2. Stay tuned.
The girls at the end of the night. It's amazing that Ashley is smiling. She was FREEZING!!! She was probably so happy to finally be inside and not being rained on.
