Not our best Trip to Disneyland

The kids had their 2 week fall break and we decided to take them to Disneyland for one last hurrah before we have this new baby.

We watched the sunset as we drove west, we thought this looked cool how the cloud had a silver lining. It was foreshadowing the trip to come (HAHA).

As we were driving to California we got a flat tire. This is the boys playing on the side of the road throwing rocks into some ditch as we waited for Roadside assistance. Which we didn't actually end up using because Curtis changed the tire himself.

After the tire frustration, we got to the hotel a lot later than we planned and the hotel didn't have our reservation. After being on the phone for an hour and driving to other hotels we stayed at the hotel that was supposed to have our reservation, but we were not in a very big room, it was supposed to be a suite and we started out with 1 queen bed, finally, we were moved to a room with 2 queen beds. It was kind of a disaster. The place we booked the hotel through said the hotel said we were a no-show. How could that be when we ended up staying there on a new reservation anyway? We ended up moving to a different hotel after the first night and got a full refund. The first day we were at Disneyland happened to be "Gay Day" All the gays were there in full force. It wouldn't have been a big deal except they were all wearing their T-shirts and pushing their agenda for Gay Marriage and everything else they wanted us to be aware of. It was also Mylie Cyrus' 16th Birthday so they kicked everyone out of Disneyland at 5:00 so she could have her Birthday Party.

This is Dax and Derek's Favorite Ride at California Adventure. I think it is called Grizzly Bear River Run. Derek was tall enough to go on most of the rides now. He went on Splash Mountain and was mad he got wet. Then he went on this ride and he would get off and say "I didn't get wet enough" They rode it again and again and again. You can't really tell in the picture (oops it just disappeared), but they are pretty wet. They couldn't get enough.

Here we are waiting in line to go on the new Toy Story ride at California Adventure. Adding this ride is a big improvement to the Midway area of California Adventure. I always thought Disney could do so much better than an ordinary Midway.

I was a little too pregnant to be at Disneyland. We rented a wheelchair, which I thought was a little embarrassing since we always make fun of the people that use them out of laziness rather than a disability. By the end of the second day, I was done. On the third day, I stayed home and slept while everyone else went to Disneyland. I had no problem with that.

Disneyland was hot for this time of year 98 degrees and also a little too crowded for us. We still had a great time despite all the setbacks.
