We waited like 3 min and someone asked if there was a party of two so we said we were and walked right on! I love the ride it was really cool with all the doors!
I noticed a cut out of Wall-E so I got my moms picture done with him

I had waited for the monorail to come across the bridge but I had turned my camera off and by the time it came over and my camera turned on it was almost gone:inquis: I had waited 10 min for it to come, it's so quiet and fast and short you don't know what just came through!
anyways we left and went in the World of Disney Store

I looked and looked for an entrance to the Grand Californian but I could find one in DTD :no: even though you can clearly see it up there!
inside

here is a art piece that's in the center of the store on the back wall, it has a mickey head at each location of a Disney Park.
We left and got back on the tram. We were back at the hotel.
Oh Also at the Flea Market (pin) shop the lady gave us two buttons that said Honorary Citizen of Disneyland and it had a mickey lock and Key through a D!!:grin:--pleased-:disney7:Thats what I get from my mom being a talker lol. :lol: YAY!!
More coming later or Tomorrow. I'm tired and think I need a nap... but I'm not sure I might be back later :yes:

Come to think of it, my first flight was to DL also. I was just over a year old.

Thanks Gabe
Day 2... The end of the day
okay! Back now with more TR!
So after we headed back to the hotel we went in search of a Walmart that the GPS told us about, we got there and it was a Sams Club:inquis:... So we just decided to come back to the hotel and start some laundry so we wouldn't have so much to do the next day.
These were across from my dads work, they are old blimp hangers!

We went to eat at a restaurant in the District it was a outdoor mall type thing full of restaurants and coffee houses
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...d/IMG_3226.jpg
We ate at Bluewater Grill and it was really good! After dinner my dad wanted to do some shopping in DTD so we headed over there and caught the tram, we did some shopping and left. On the way back we saw this place called Tiffy's, I used to be called Tiffy all the time and it really got on my nerves so I had to take a picture. :dizzy:

We called it a night when we returned to the hotel.
Day 3... Relaxing pool side and a beautiful sunset
Today we washed more clothes in the morning then got in the pool
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...d/IMG_3230.jpg
We swam for awhile and got in the hot tub for awhile. We stayed down there for a little over an hour then came up and got showers and I had looked up a address for Walmart so we headed that way. First we ate at Subway across the street from the hotel. Then we went to Walmart, Walmart wasn't in such a good area of town so we ran in and got what we need and left fast...
We got back and chilled until my dad called and told us that he was getting off early so we could go to Laguna Beach for the sunset and dinner!!:yahoo:
The journey there wasn't that bad at all and we drove down the pacific coast highway. On the way there my dad said there was a position open at the plant there, I said interview for it! lol, but my mom isn't interested in moving that far away... I am! I would have Disneyland at my fingertips!! :lol:. And it's so beautiful in CA! anyway moving on...
Here's both the rental cars... Both of the Grey ones

Day 3 part 2... Sunset and a proposal!
We parked close to the restaurant where we would be eating at later and fingered we should wait for the sunset to happen because after we ate it would be over with... so enjoy the sunset and I'll fill you in on some of the pics...

We ate at a fancy Mexican restaurant called La Brisas. We were seated in the corner and I had a window but my parents didn't.

I didn't want my picture taken, hints the look...
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...s/P1100615.jpg
The guy behind me was acting a little strange and I found he got up alot... one time he walked out on the patio beside the window and realized that he could see his girlfriend, he turned around quick and soon he came back. After there dinner the girl got up to freshen up I guess and the waiter came to the table. ( could see this from the mirror behind my parents on the wall) The guy whispered into the waiters ear and then he got up and walked off, he handed something to the waiter and the girl came back after they had cleaned off the table. The guy comes back soon and they sit down and talk, not to long after that the waiter comes and sits the dessert down and it has a little box on the side, the girl looks at it and opens it and the guy asked will she marry him. And she said OMG and kissed him and said yes! They kept kissing and she kept laughing and tearing up. It was a special moment. All the while our dinner was okay, I'm not a big Mexican food fan, tacos are okay but not this other stuff lol. I'm a casual Mexican food person :lol:. The night was special and the sunset was beautiful! A perfect way to end the night.
Here are some of my dads sunset pics...
