My excuse is that the trip planners (ie: The Financial Controller AKA Karon, And the Tour Director AKA Earnie,) insist on having the Scribe/Driver AKA Rick, at their beck and call.
I am still attempting to master the upload of the phots and information and so am falling behind a little with the transcripts. They INSIST I get some sleep by around 12pm so I am able to drive the next day. GEE what a wonderful journey being multi skilled AND talented as well. (Pity I am unable to add goodlooking :)
Here is an another update on the Disneyland day. I will attempt to get all of the written info in tonight and upload pics tomorrow.
The electric Light Parade
Food time again so we left Disneyland and proceeded across to California Adventure (Park next door and a Hopper pass entitles you to access both with re-entry to either in the one day).
Here we found food in the Taste Pilots Grill (more naughty food, definitely tighten belts and food intake in the RV when we are able to prepare it ourselves).
Time for the parade of lights, it was delayed but again a wonderful experience, The camera by this stage was not being nice because the batteries were getting tired (as was the cameraman and crew I can tell you!)
Then hot foot it as soon as this was finished over to Disneyland to catch the laser show and the fireworks. Interesting to note here that both Rick and Earnie had said as we waited for the delayed light parade, "Oh well if we miss the fireworks so what? Fireworks is fireworks!" But we managed to get back in time for a wonderful, orchestrated to music, lights and themes that only the world of Disney could provide.
We left there Extremely tired after a 12 hour day, BUT I must say that Walt Disney certainly had it right to allow us to keep in touch with the child within us all. We have yet another day to look forward too with some unseen experiences in California Adventure yet to be taken.
Thankyou Walt Disney and all at Disneyland for the experience and one that makes sure you want to bring your Grandkids and kids to enjoy, may the party never end.
Comments
Fun had by all
Glad to you all had fun at Disneyland. When I told Byran about Buzz he was very jealous and wanted to know when it was his turn. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at Disneyland that day and have watched you three acting like big kids (or is that just Rick!). Mum would have told to bring you to bring your jackets, you 2 are just deaf. But then again, I remember many childhood experiences with the same comment. Love you all, keep having fun.
Sarah, Rich, Byran, Mitch and Jarrod. xxxx
