    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    The other entrance to the Playboy Mansion: This is the Witch House. A movie producer "back in the day" built this house for his silent films. Shortly after, they started making "Talkies" which he wanted no part of, so he quit. Now a big shot real estate broker lives there. They filmed...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    Now this one I remember! Oh Leo!!! How my teenage self would have probably lost conciousness at the sight of your house!!! Beyonce & Jay-Z: I'm THINKING this may be Will Smith. Or Usher. I can't remember. I remember Usher has these strange light-up crystals on some of his posts, but I...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    We didn't walk all the way to the end, since eating lunch took up so much time and we still wanted to go down to the beach. We did a little shopping, and I got a cute 3/4 sleeve sweatshirt. We went into the building with the indoor merry go round, which was cute, and the building just SMELLED...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    Thanks! I took a lot of pictures so I have lots of details to share! Yuk I have no desire to go to LaGuardia then! Lol. I didn't see a single In N Out burger! I've heard about them though. I did see a Carl's Jr. (around here they are Hardee's). I have a hard time believing In N Out could...

    Walt Disney Concert Hall: Supposedly, Lillian donated oodles and gobs of her own money to fund the building of this, and it has some of the best acoustics in the entire world. Tunnel where they filmed "The Dark Knight". I love this movie. She said some other things too (Transformers...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    Friday, July 4 IT'S TOUR DAY!!!! When I first planned this trip, I didn't plan on doing a tour. Then my mom said "Isn't it weird that you will be SO CLOSE to Hollywood, and not go there?" And she was right. It was weird. I have to start with a disclaimer that I am a Real Housewives nut. I...

    Yes. It's just the Disney World magic! And I feel like DL is not very much about characters either!

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    I guess I should take a sec and explain the title of this report. The whole time we were there, I just didn't get "that feeling" I get at WDW. You know the one. That you are with your people. That everyone around you is just as insanely in love with everything Disney as you. I of course had...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    Thanks! I was shocked as well! "They" knew I was coming. LOL! But especially during the 4th weekend. The longest we waited the whole time was at Indiana Jones with our FP's. Yes. Disneyland really is the alternate universe Magic Kingdom! Or maybe the other way around since DL was first? But...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    After Radiator Springs Racers, we walked around through Bug's Land with our eye on a certain hotel in Hollywood Land..... The wait time was posted I think at 20 minutes, so we got in line. We still had a little time to kill before needing to head back for Space Mountain. It's only a 2...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    At this time, it was like 8pm at home. I had been going non-stop since 4:30am. It was time for a pick me up. We stopped at the Starbucks on Main Street. I know people complain about Starbucks in Disney. It blends so well though. And I get to have a caramel frappaccino, so it's a win-win in...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    Pirates was right next door, with a posted wait time of 10 min. So we decided to do it. If we could ever find the entrance :( In case you don't know, it is under the bridge that you walk over out of Adventureland. *Side note: Adventureland seems really small without Pirates there. It has the...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    We did a little wandering, we were so excited to be there! We really didn't have a "plan of attack". I knew enough (from some things I had read and shows I had watched) to know what was popular, and kind of what we wanted to do, but I figured at 3pm there would be no way. I mean, at Magic...

    I love that concept art! I think the castle is very beautiful. And the longer I was there, the more I fell in love with it. Thanks about the pictures! I have never been a very good photographer, but I got a new camera before we left and it helped a lot! Thanks! A lady down the street has some...

    Trip Report The "These people don't get us" Disneyland trip!

    We dropped off at the Disneyland and Paradise Pier hotels first, then our home for the next few days... Check in was easy and fine (although a time share guy tried his best to suck us in), and we got to our room fine. The room was also good. Plenty of room (Casitas Suite which had a queen...

    Well, our trip to Walt's park has sadly come to an end. We arrived in late last night after a very eventful (read, stormy) flight. And my attempt at another trip report is beginning. I'm going to try to do it on Word this time, so maybe it will go a little easier than having to worry about...

    Pre-Trip That's it! I did it!

    Two weeks to go! I am trying to finalize plans and such as much as I can. Started "pre-packing" yesterday. Going through my list, seeing what I have, what I need, what needs to be replaces, etc. My son has asthma and allergies (including and extreme anaphylactic shock nut allergy) so packing and...

    She's such a good girl :) You are never allowed to go without me again! I think my children (i.e. husband) will behave better if we go together Justin just has to be on board (it will make life easier for him if he is lol).
