We started our second day at the Disney Parks around 10 am.
Went to the Sunglass Hut to check out the Mickey Ray Ban. They were pricier than I expect. $243. Was hoping they were under $200. I don't like them that much.
Tuesday at the park was way less crowded than Monday.
We ended up purchasing Max Pass for the firs time. $10 per ticket per day. Pretty much you can obtain your Fast Passes via the Disney App. Well worth it.
We rode Astro Blaster cause fast passes were immediately available.
After we headed over to Blue Bayou for lunch. Had lunch reservations.
While we were waiting for you lunch reservations. We wondered around the nearby shops.

After lunch we headed to Splash Mountain. I was able to get fast passes while we were having lunch.
Our friends Phil and Quyen were at the park for the day. So they met up with us.
They hand out baggies now for your electronic devices.
Didn't know who the stranger was at the end that was riding with us, but they fit right in.
Phil sat in front.
I sat in front also... We were soaked.
Hopped on Winnie the Pooh for Jaylyn and it was like a 1 minute wait.
Then we headed to space mountain. We had fast passes for this also.

Around 4 pm we started to head our way to DCA. Disneyland was closing early for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween.
Jaylyn is really into bubbles at the moment. Dad in the background providing the bubbles.
Had fast passes for Soarin' also.
Also had fast passes for Midway Mania. Max Pass is great.

I think this is Plot Twist: Absolut Citron Vodka, Midori, White Cranberry Juice, and fresh Lime juice.
They didn't have anything new that was off menu, but they still had the Zombie.
We really liked the coasters so we asked for some and the cast member gave us a huge stack.
They also had the Fun Wheel.
It was time for RSR so we grabbed our drinks to go.
Came back for a rematch and still lost.
After RSR we headed to Carthay Circle Restaurant for dinner.
