 Well, I'm on vacation in Sunny California (or not so sunny this morning, but I'm assured by weather.com that the clouds will disappear in a few hours.  The trip down was long, our 2 hours in Denver turned into 3.  But the husband and I managed to entertain ourselves, we made friends with the flight crew as we all went back and forth between gates.  (Denver's pretty big.. we arrived at gate 89... our next one was at gate 22, then that was changed to 44... and then finally ended at 32. - quite the adventure.)

So we made it down here okay.  Spent the rest of the day not really doing that much.  Was 5 am CST when we got up to go to the airport, and we finally made it to the hotel around 4pm PST.  We ended up walking over to the Anaheim Garden Walk (neat place!) and checked out the stores.  Had dinner at Bubba Gump Co.  Awesome shrimp.. and I had a drink that I ended up getting a huge glass with.  First souvenir!   We conked out around 9:30 pm PST (after I went to the hotel pool and found no hot tub.  I nearly switched hotels cause of it!  Except.. good luck finding anything better in Anaheim in August (especially with Blizzcon at the end of the week.)

Yesterday we went on another adventure.. seems the hotel map was a little inaccurate.. we walked 45 minutes to Target and back.. (husband needed some items.)  Had IHOP for breakfast, yum.. then it was straight to Disney's California Adventure.  That place is huge.  The best of the day there was Soarin' Over California and the California Screamin'.   Tower of Terror was kinda meh.  Big buildup.... tiny overture.   We got there around 11, left at 8:30ish.  (missed the fireworks and parade.. husband was ready to go.. I was up for parking for a parade spot.  Oh well, maybe tonight.)  Gosh my feet hurt.  Not used to all that standing and walking! (yes, I'm that lazy.. but it was alot of time on my feet!)

Today is Magic Kingdom, maybe go back over to California Adventure and catch a couple things we missed (Disney Playhouse and the Aladdin Musical).  I've got breakfast in the park with Minnie and friends reserved for us.  I'm looking forward to it.


Hey, if I miss anything while I'm on vacation and you think I might like it... link it to me on this post.  I'm soooooo not paying attention to LJ until I'm back.  But thank goodness for a laptop and hotel wireless.

Chat with ya'll later!
