... them. We went right back to ride Toy Story Midway Mania. Steve was the #2 spot for the day (which he didn't let anyone forget for the rest of the trip). We then rode California Screamin' and, just as we got off...it broke (are you noticing a pattern?). We headed to Mickey's FunWheel to ride and we watched people being evacuated from California Screamin. Unfortunately a few people in our party didn't fare to well on the FunWheel. W<br><br>The kids played a few ...

... back at 2:30 so I got back in line and timed it so that I got to the front just as he came back from his break. Callie was thrilled. (Except when Pooh tried to hold on to her Pooh. She wasn't excited about it but eventually gave in.) We made a quick trip to California Adventure to buy our jackets and take a picture beside the big C of California, and then headed back to the ...

... this time around one for me and one for her, but mostly for eachother. There names are Dino and Desi. ( Aka Jack and Beano. My mom refuses to call my dog Desi cuz she says it's gay. And Dino is a little stinky, hence the Beano.) They are our babies, they bring so much happiness to our lives. They've also brought a lot of destruction, they like to chew and have eaten holes in our couches, pillows, blankets, clothes, underwear, socks... just about everything... but we ...

... the beach afterall. According to our itinerary we were only to have a glipse of 'tinseltown' but luckely Sandy gave us two hours to explore Hollywood so we got the chance to see the footprints and handprints outside the Chinese Theatre, take the pictures of the 'Hollywood' sign, and stroll down Hollywood Boulevard. Then onto Anaheim for two nights.

... do that on my days off...and I'll impress 'em with my brains/skills on the show days. ;) I'm totally a nerd at heart, as evidenced by my tourist choices in Sacramento. Checked out the capitol bldg, Old Sacramento and the CA State Railroad Museum. The highlight was the US Post Office train at the museum. Got to hear a former worker on the rail talk about the process and his life. Sweet. Tour peeps seem chill. I ...

... we were so ready to get back to Oregon. When we get to the baggage claim we are thrilled to see Sharon (K's sister) who is there to pick us up and take us to our car. It was so nice to see a familiar smiling family face!! Sharon and Denny (Sharon's husband) take us over to SW Portland to pick up our car we left at our friend's (Wittenburgs) house. An easy drive home to Salem. It was so nice to be back behind the steering wheel. I had almost forgotten what it was like.

Every once in awhile, in between the many Orlandos is a California, or a Florida, or another random state I am asked to visit for more cheerleading championship coverage. This year, California was one of them. So, I flew into Los Angeles (a place I have visited before and love) and drove about 40 minutes to Anaheim.. Home of Disney Land. As you can see, I can't seem to get away from these thrilling lands of cartoon characters. Disney World, Disney Land... it's safe ...

... d'un petit ruisseau dont le fonds de pierre avait été construit pour que le son de l'eau qui coule soit différent à chacun des 4 ponts à traverser pour visiter le jardin. Jeudi 15 novembre a permis un dernier retour à Los Angeles pour mieux visiter le secteur de Venice et ses canaux; on en a profité pour flâner sur une rue piétonnière qui borde la plage pour faire de petits achats, dîner à un restaurant qui donne sur la plage et faire une dernière marche dans le sable ...

... towards Hollywood. She showed us where she worked and we drove down Hollywood Blvd. passing places we have heard of before such as Graumann's Chinese Theater, Fredericks of Hollywood, and the Walk of Fame. Our first stop was the Silent Movie Theater. This is the only silent movie theater still in operation in the US, according to them. Today's screening was a comedy holiday special, which meant they were showing old Laurel & Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, The Little Rascals ...
