Memories#2

It is my turn again for a post since it was hinted to on the last post eh?

This morning as it was raining and snowing west of town, our local radio station was playing a song with the words "California dreamin' on a cold winters day". They must have played it out of spite for our weather. We certainly do need the rain and the moisture.

California dreamin'! That got me thinking about our trip again and the fantastic weather we experienced while we were there. Sunny California makes lots of sense to me! I have many good memories of our time down south!

Memories like this photo of Lorraine and I by Thunder Mountain. She wanted to go on the ride again and again much to my surprise!Then how about this one? This one is from Sea World in San Diego with Shamu showing off his abilities! The best part was he loved to make people wet!I really enjoyed seeing the sunset as we enjoyed our "birthday supper" at Ruby's Diner on the end of the 2000' long pier in Oceanside. It seemed in no time flat the sun was gone "into the ocean". It went really fast!As lame as it may sound and for those of you who know Disneyland, don't laugh when I say that my favorite ride is still "Small World" like it was before. They have updated it since we were there in 1997, but it still has the original "flavor" to it.
One other memory that stands out in my mind is the professionalism of Disneyland. The whole park "flows" so well. It all "fits". It is incredibly clean! As a kid of 50, I just loved it and very much look forward to going again. I don't think it will be a 12 year wait like last time.
