Disneyland - We're finally back!

It's hard to believe but after two years, the Mesquitas were back at Disneyland.  Well, only two of us, were at Disneyland.  Anthony did not want to go and Joshua, well, wasn't behaving at school (or home, for that matter) so he stayed home with Dad.

We missed the boys but we had a great time.  We went with Patti and Micah for the trip she won on the radio.  Thank you 95.5!  We stayed at the Grand Californian.  Here is our view:




We were right up to Disney's California Adventure, behind the Goofy Sky School ride.  Very cool! We were able to watch the World of Color from our room!!

We went to California Adventure on Friday and Sunday.  First ride (after the Trolley) was Tower of Terror.  I WILL NEVER GET ON THAT RIDE AGAIN!  Once was more than enough!


Later in the evening we met Tim, Andrea, Matthew and Tony.  They talked me into getting on California Screamin' for the first time ever.  I will probably never get on this ride again.  Maybe, only when Joshua is ready for the ride.  


Alexandra got on the ride again with the Olijnyks!

Best part of California Adventure was Carsland.  WE LOVED IT!













Saturday we went to Disneyland.  Highlight . . . Space Mountain 3 times in one day!  Plus, we met Merida! :-)
Merida and Alexandra (I think she looks like Miss Connaty with red hair! I was expecting her to say "Hi, Alex!")

Back at Disneyland after two years.

Finally! We finally rode the updated Star Tours.
It was a good trip! Nice to spend time with Alexandra.  And it's always a fun time with Patti.  Now, I have my work cut out for me.  I'm trying to talk Anthony in to going to Disneyland for Joshua's 10th birthday in August. 

Thank you, Patti for taking me and Alexandra!!
