Day 3 - The weather turned itself back on for us again today with a fine & pleasant day for the real Disneyland. It was a lot busier than California park on Tuesday with families everywhere. We are really glad we came in winter when it's not busy! We got through all the lands and many rides and the highlight of the day - meeting Captain Jack Sparrow on Treasure Island. (At least he was an excellent imitation of the real one). Also enjoyed the Parade of Dreams at night before we went back for a final shopping expedition in downtown Disney. It has certainly had a lot of additions since I was there 27 years ago but many of the old attractions still looked the same too. Kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves but again - everything super tame and the fastest thing we went on was the tea cup ride!
Day 4 - Up early for a long day of taxi, airport, flights and finally arrived in Eugene, Oregon to meet Peg and Bill after 27 years. Apart from their grandchildren being grown up and having their own families, the people hadn't changed a great deal and it was great to reunite with the family. The town of Cresswell however is now filling up with new housing developments and Peg & Bill's house is now surrounded with new homes instead of orchards & vacant blocks.
Day 5/6 - Just enjoyed spending time with the Bryant family in and around Cresswell before boarding our flight to Las Vegas, Nevada. Lights fantastic flying in & landing what seemed like metres from all the big hotels. Finally settled in at Circus Circus with 2 tired kids. More on LV later ..... Cheers for now, More thumbnails ...
