Disneyland 2010

It has been 10 years since Matt and I went to Disneyland. The last time we went was in 2000 our senior year of high school. So I figured since Matt graduated as Radiology Technologist in May and it was our 6 year Anniversary and he was going to start school again this August for MRI/CT at Weber State and any other reason I could think of, we would go to Disneyland. As it is Matt's favorite place on Earth and that is where he wanted to go.

So I booked the hotel rooms and purchased the tickets and told Matt what we did in Disneyland was up to him. Later would I realize 5 days in Disneyland straight was a little too much for me.

So we started our trip out with a drinkable lunch from Jamba Juice. It was a little windy!

We stopped in Las Vegas on our way down, so we wouldn't have to drive straight through. Not the best idea as we both don't like Las Vegas at all.

We arrived to Disneyland on Sunday, but Matt wanted full days at Disneyland, so we went to a very small beach a little bit away from Laguna Beach. It was great because parking was only $1.00 per hour and it wasn't crowded at all. We arrived at dinner time, so we ate at the small cafe and then went for a walk. It was fun and we found a hole in the rock which was pretty cool.

We spent the rest of the week at Disneyland and California Adventures but I consider them both the same as you can park hop back and forth. Also who ever thought up the fast passes was a genius. They just need to add it for a couple more rides and Disneyland would be that much more fun.

So here is our trip in pictures mostly.

While we were at Disneyland, Matt saw someone wearing a Madd Hatter hat. So he kept thinking he would buy one. We found one the first day we were there, but didn't find one again until the fourth day. We even asked shops randomly around Disneyland and were told they didn't have any anywhere. Well as you can see in this picture, we found one and people want to take their picture with Matt so I took one to prove it. Also I thought I would try on the hat. You will have to agree that Matt looks much better in it. Someone even said he has the eyes for it.
