So I have a confession to make. I personally don’t think this is a bad thing….but my husband thinks I am completely nuts. At night when I don’t have anything to do….let me rephrase this…when I have decided that I need an evening of “me time” I get on you tube and look up videos on rides at Disneyland. Ok…you can stop laughing now. ;)
Mandi, Jason, Brandon and I have decided to embark on a mini vacation to sunny southern California to go to Disneyland and California Adventure for 4 days in April. I CANT WAIT!! I am really very excited about this. I was born and raised in California for 16 years….so you would think Disneyland would be old news to me….nope, love it! Been there about 5 times and still think it’s the greatest place ever. My time there is never long enough and I try to savor every minute I am there….but it just doesn’t seem to last very long. So you can imagine how excited I am to share this experience with my husband and our family. (Family being Mandi and Jason J)
It took quite some maneuvering but we seemed to manage a date that wasn’t wayyyy out in the far future like October or November. We moved around schedules and made it work. I am very grateful for this. Oh…did I mention this was a Christmas present from my wonderful husband?? Gosh I LOVE him!! We won’t have much money to go with…but I think the memories and pictures far outweigh being able to buy useless souvenirs that will sit on shelves and collect dust. And we have decided ( I think) on a great hotel that has a kitchenette and full sized appliances in each room, so we should save money on food….and be able to eat healthy still.
We will be leaving on a Thursday and returning on a Monday. Should be plenty of time to see both parks and maybe even ride some favorite rides over again. J Some of my favorites are The Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Thunder Mountain….and I kinda like the Tiki Room too…as corny as that sounds. I once went with one of my cousins and we tried to ride every ride in the park in one day….we almost made it. And I found out I like some of the rides that I wouldn’t think I would. Even the Alice in Wonderland and Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride are pretty neat.
So, needless to say….I am really looking forward to getting away from my everyday life and adding some magic to my life for 4 days and enjoying the company of great friends that we really enjoy the company of!
