I had shitty internet yesterday morning because I was in a cheap ass hotel. My friend's plans got changed after we had already decided to go to Disneyland. Which meant we got a cheap hotel room instead of our usual quality. It's okay though - the new car got 41.01 mpg on the trip so what I would have normally spent on gas covered the room. Other than that and critter breakfast we didn't spend much. It was just a nice time out of town. Too many fucking people EVERYWHERE but otherwise a nice time.
We left Wednesday after my meetings. We were on the road by 10 and while I didn't expect traffic to be non-existent, I certainly wasn't expecting what we hit. Took us 8 hours to get there. Annoying. We checked into the hotel around 4:30 and headed over to the park. The parks were packed but we managed to enjoy ourselves anyhow. We had fun going on some rides and walking around. We were all tired and left the park by 10.
Yesterday we got up around 7:30 and headed over to the Grand Californian for breakfast. Some day I would like to stay there. Even with my discount rooms range from $250-$400 a night. Out of my league. I wish I could stay at one of the park hotels but man oh man. Too rich for my blood. It was beautiful though. First time I had ever been really inside and walked around. Breakfast was great; we saw both bears from Brother Bear, Chip n Dale, and Meeko from Pocahontas. After breakfast we headed over and saw the new stage show Mickey's Magic Map. Wow. Just wow. It was one of the best shows I have seen in years. It was incredible. I was blown away by it.
After that we did a couple of rides, hung out, ate lunch, then headed to DCA. We ended up seeing the Aladdin show because B has never seen it and the kid loves it. I should mention it was the three of us on this trip. It was a good trip for them to bond and for me to see where they don't mesh. Because boy are there places where they don't mesh. B said something to me last night and I have to process it before I talk more about it in regards to me and the kid.
We left the park about 8 and fuck me the traffic was awful. Fucking construction in so many places. Took us 7 hours to get home. Not happy.
Sorry got distracted while typing...
Anyway, got home around 3, unpacked mostly and went to bed. I am a little out of sorts this morning due to lack of sleep but mostly okay. Let's see how today shapes up. We are supposed to go out with some friends tonight.
