disneyland

okay, getting tired, can't think of better titles.

we went to disneyland yesterday! surprisingly, it was a pretty slow day. unlike last year we didn't run around crazy, and i think it was more fun. not gonna lie.

we started off slow by going to the finding nemo submarine ride. cami got a big kick out of the "real" australian accents. we all thought it would make more sense for them to just get real australians to do it since it was all recorded anyway. but whatever. flynn seemed not to care. it was fun though and cool to see all our favorite characters in the water.


the rides i remember going on (sorry, not a very good memory) are these: submarines, that one rockety thing, space mountain, splash mountain, grizzly bear thing in california adventure, california screamin' (twice), soaring over california, mike and sully save the day, buzz lightyear, indiana jones, jungle cruise (have to go at night!) and then the reagans went on a few rides for flynn. i can't remember if we went on anything else, but we got to see a lot of other things like how sourdough and tortillas are made. we saw a few parades and the fireworks. it was a lot of fun.

we also got these pineapple whip ice cream things that were so good! we got them the last time we were all at disneyland and so had to get them this year, too. not entirely sure what they are, almost a sherbet, but not quite. if anyone's going to disneyland soon, they can be found by the tiki room. there's the whip (pictured) and then a float with pineapple juice on bottom. i prefer just the whip because the juice doesn't seem as sweet when the whip is on top. but they are absolutely fabulous. try one!

we left the park around midnight, grabbing some last minute provisions in the form of cream cheese-filled soft pretzels. mine was a jalapeno one that was really tasty. i have no idea when we got home, but i fell asleep still dressed.

this morning eden woke me up to ask if i could watch flynn while she and clint took clint's car to the shop to get some work done. i woke up to hear flynn crying so i hobbled my way to his room and got him up. we had breakfast of cereal and yogurt and then cami woke up. i think today we were planning on making a movie, but i think we'll just be recuperating.
