Mystic and Exile's High Times at the D23 Expo, Day One!



We hit the road, leaving Las Vegas at about 6:30am on Thursday headed to Anaheim and our 2nd D23 Expo Adventure! After an uneventful drive, we arrived in Anaheim around 10:30 and checked into our lovely room at the Hilton Anaheim. As soon as Bell Services delivered our luggage, we immediately jumped on ART and were on our way to Disneyland Park. We are Premier Passholders, so are able to visit Disneyland often, but it never loses its Magic for us! We took the requisite stroll down Main Street and headed to Fantasyland for a quick ride on It's a Small World since we missed it on our last trip. Next, we had a nice lunch at the Carnation Cafe, one of our favorite dining locations. We both had a cup of the Loaded Baked Potato Soup, I had the Cafe Steak and Wayne had the Main Street Meatloaf Stack. Both meals were great, but it was a lot of food, so no room for dessert! :-(. We headed over to Tomorrowland for a ride on Star Tours, the Adventures Continue. This time we went to Hoth and Coruscant! We found our perfect seat for Mickey's Soundsational Parade and enjoyed a Mickey Bar while we waited. We hadn't seen this parade yet and we loved it! We were a little tired after the drive and park visit, so we boarded ART for the Hilton. We walked next door to the ACC to look at the Expo banners and make sure our credentials were in order. They were. Back to the hotel, dinner and an early turn in to be ready for a big day tomorrow!
