Day Twenty... I think: Disney's California Adventure!!!

Howdy!

Well, Tim and I have kind of lost track of the days now, but I think this is Day 20, right? It's not really important I guess. What is important is that Tim and I are sitting in our fabulous hotel room, generously set up for us by Grandpa Tom and Grandma Judy (Thanks again guys!) basically right across the street from DISNEYLAND!!! We are so lucky!

First off, yesterday (Day 19) was a lot of fun! Tim and I woke up at Heather's and we were dropped off on Hollywood Blvd. We hopped on the first tour we could find through Hollywood and saw some sights. The tour took us through Beverly Hills, Bel-Air, and most of the surrounding areas. We got to see where a lot of famous people lived such as Michael Jackson and Elvis! When we got off the tour, we walked up and down the boulevard to see the stars. After eating lunch, we were offered a chance to see a live taping of the show "Minute to Win it", and we gladly accepted! It was a lot of fun! Keep an eye out for the Office special of the show, and you will see us! We got our picture taken with Guy Fieri because we were Super Fans!!!

Ok, would you like to know what Disneyland is like? Are you sure? Okay, well let me tell you... the first thing you need to know is.......... it's pretty freaking awesome!!! Sure it's smaller than Disney World, but the fact is that this is the perfect size for a quick two day visit! We literally saw the entire California Adventure's Park today, and it only took us about 10 or 11 hours. We got there around 1 pm and we were strolling back into the hotel lobby by 11 pm, which is just a short walk away from the parks. There are plenty of amazing things to see here too. Just in the Cali. Adventure Park there was a roller coaster (which we didn't get a chance to ride, but we will tomorrow) as well as a wine tasting booth (with delicious wines and beers), and plenty of shows to see. I think we saw every single one of the shows: "It's Tough to Be a Bug in 3D", "The Muppet's in 3D", even a live-action version of Aladdin! And of course, we can't forget the WORLD OF COLOR! We will honestly never forget that show! It was... I mean, I just don't know if there are words for it. Spectacular! They had mist that served as a projector screen so they could show scenes from a bunch of the classic Disney movies. Favorites like Aladdin, Pocahontas, Toy Story, The Lion King, and even the Pirates of the Caribbean! In addition to the bright and beautiful colors illuminating the water being shot into the air, there were large flames being blasted throughout the show! I really can't describe it right... you will just have to come to California Adventure's and see it for yourselves. You really should!

So, anyway, tomorrow we are going to the other park. I'll be sure to update you all on it tomorrow night!
