A Day in the Life Of: Disneyland!

Well we got back from Disneyland yesterday and again we had a fantastic time!! That place never seems to get old. We spent Monday and Tuesday there and stayed at the Disneyland Hotel, which is the oldest of the three hotels there, but beautiful just the same. The hotel has three separate towers all surrounding a beautiful pool area which has a Peter Pan theme. There is the pool and a restaurant and also a bar area. In the pool they have a pirate ship and the crocodile. It's really cute. Just outside of our tower were these beautiful waterfalls that I forgot to get photos of.

This time around we went on a lot of the rides that are more for the kids. Inside of fantasyland are all these rides that tell the story of some of the Disney movies...there is an Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Snow White and Wind in the Willows. The only one that I had been on before was the Snow White one. My favourite was Peter Pan. You went into a ship and you flew over the bedroom, London and through Neverland. It was great. We also went on one call Storybook Land, which is a boat ride through all these miniature lands such as Aladdin, Cinderella's village, and Prince Eric's castle just to name a few. It was a cute ride that I sure every kid would love. We also really enjoyed the Buzz Lightyear ride and Soaring over California. The Soaring ride is like being in the air and flying over all sorts of attractions that California has to offer. It is really cool, and one of the rides I can go on without feeling sick!!

John of course went on all the wild rides he loves so much and I can't stomach!! We were able to fast pass a few of them so he got to go on them twice in a row! After trying the roller coaster last time and almost throwing up John knows not to try to get me to go on any of those types of rides.

Now that I'm home it's back to the study. I've got quite a bit of work due in the next couple of weeks so the extra time off is really going to come in handy. The weather is absolutely beautiful at the moment, so hopefully the rest of my time off will not be all study. I would like to get out and enjoy some of the sunshine.
