Disneyland!




Funny story,...when we booked our cruise, we were entered into a drawing and won a Disneyland vacation....so guess where we are?! We are staying in the Grand California Hotel, which has it's own private entrance to Disney's California Adventure. Guests of the hotel get to go into Disneyland 1 hour before everyone else.

We were given 3-day hopper passes to the parks, and we have been having a blast! Yesterday we spent the whole day in Disney's California Adventure. My favorites there were "Soarin'", and "California Screamin". We did meet Nathan and Calla for dinner that evening. This morning we got up and headed for Disneyland. We spent the whole day there, and there were hardly any lines for any of the rides, so we were able to ride all the rides we wanted to, and then some! We got to watch Mickey in the battle of good vs evil tonight, and you will be happy to know, good won! It was an amazing production! Tomorrow we will be heading back to ride our favorites of the two parks and then we will head back home.

We got soaked on Splash Mountain! Then we were freezing for the rest of the day!


Space Mountain was another of
our favorite rides!


You got to love these 3-D glasses. We had to wear the yellow ones for the "Toy Story" ride, and
the black ones for "it's a bug's life" experience.

How fun. Tell that adoption guy to give us a baby! I won't tell Noah you went to see Mickey without him. Have fun.

I am so jealous. I can't believe how much fun you guys have. When are you going to get old and boring?

As I looked at your first "castle" picture, I expected to see a "Where's Dean" caption...maybe you'll have to try that with one of your crowd photos. Or is Dean hidden in the picture somewhere?
