Disneyland

Tad with his. . . ."girlfriend/fiance" (ok who knows what they are) goofing off at the disney shop Ben tried to eat Mickey's nose. . . but all in all Ben liked Mickey
We had a blast at Disneyland. We headed out at about 1:00 on Sunday afternoon, and met up with Tad and his girlfriend Destiny in Provo. After loading into Tad's car we were off! Ben was awesome in the car. When we were about 2 hours from Disneyland, We switched drivers and suddenly. . . the car wouldn't go. The clutch went out on Tad's car, so. . . we all crammed into the Tahoe (13 people in all) and made the rest of the journey all snuggled up close! We left Tad's car at a mechanics shop, and called them the next day to ask them to fix it. All in all. . . We arrived at 1:27 am at the Desert Inn. Then we fell quickly to sleep. The next morning at 7 am we ate breakfast at the hotel, and went to discover Disneyland!

It rained ALL DAY. . . well almost. all morning it was drizzly, and we were all brilliant enough to go on splash mountain when it stopped momentarily. Then it began to pour. By 11:00 we were all drenched and miserable, so we went back to the hotel and changed, ate lunch and we were back at it again. This time we went to California Adventure, which was alot of fun since I have never been there. And of course. . . it didn't rain the entire time we were changing and eating, but as soon as we got back into the park. . . we were walking in 2-3 inches of water, the skies were at it again!

My favorite ride was Screamin'. Of course it is a roller coaster, my favorite. Thankfully they have these passes called stroller passes that let you hop right onto the ride after your group goes through so you can ride too!



Ben got to ride the carousel, which he enjoyed quite a bit! He rode a purple otter.

The next morning we picked up a generator that Todd's dad won on E-bay, and we were on our way back home! We stopped in Barstow and picked up Tad's car. We got back at 5 am! Yeah. . . I am tired
