California- Part I

It will probably take me several posts to document our whole trip. Our first day in California (Wednesday), we spent at Disneyland. It was awesome. Austin loved it, and was absolutely WONDERFUL on the entire trip. We spent a good part of our day in Toontown. We stood in the forever long line to meet Mickey Mouse. It was worth it though, to see Austin's reaction when he saw Mickey! He especially liked Mickey's nose!!

We also watched the parade later that afternoon. I could not believe how enthralled Austin was in it. He just stared at everything that went past, and would point and say "This, This!"

He loved it!

On Thursday we went to SeaWorld. We got a few pictures, but they didn't turn out very well. We didn't get there until mid-afternon thanks to good ol' LA traffic (there had been a horrible accident). It took us about 4 hours to get to San Diego...stuck on the freeway!!! Anyway, we had fun. I really enjoyed the night time shows they had. I actually think they might be better than the regular show. Austin and I also spent time in the kids area with Mom, Chuck, and Charles. He was so cute on all the little rides we took him him on. He would puts his arms in the air, and say "Whoa!" These are pictures from the night time dolphin show. (Sorry, they are not the best pictures!)

On Friday, we went to Universal Studios. It was okay...fun for adults, not so much for kids. Justin and I did go on the Mummy ride, which was awesome! They also had a new Simpson's ride, that Justin really enjoyed.
