Last day

On our last day at the Disneyland Resort, we checked out of the hotel and went to early entry at Disneyland. During early entry, the rides in Fantasyland and Tomorrowland are open an hour before the rest of the park. Once the rest of the park opened, we rode some of the things in Frontierland, Adventureland, and New Orleans Square that we hadn't done yet. It was another beautiful day, although Disneyland was fairly crowded for a weekday in February.

In the afternoon, we spent a lot of time talking to several members of the Dream Squad about how the "Year of a Million Dreams" giveaway worked, about stuff around the resort, and about life in general. They were all really nice. 

In the evening, we headed north toward home, stopping for the night at Kettleman City. The last day of our trip was spent driving. And driving. We left Kettleman City about 9 am, and drove for almost 11 hours straight. After getting stuck for almost an hour in a traffic in Sacramento, we decided not to stop for lunch, and arrived home in the evening. During our trip, we had visited 14 states, driven over 10,000 miles, and completed over 40 Junior Ranger programs.
