Evacuating Splash Mountain.

Thank goodness!

Nope, I couldn’t do it. Darn.

Space Mountain – first time!

Sunset at the Griffith Observatory.

We didn’t ride the teacups, but they were quite neat to watch at night.

Evacuating Thunder Mountain.

An exciting sunset at the Griffith Observatory.

Space Mountain – second time!

We got evacuated from Splash Mountain right before the lift up the big hill at the end. It was very very interesting to see the inside of the ride with the lights on and sound off – almost more interesting than doing the actual ride.

Disneyland.

Splash Mountain – 2nd time.

I loved this Mariachi Band at Disneyland! They were too cool.

Naturally, I had to try to pull off some sort of photo of the Hollywood Sign.

At Disneyland, I found the secret Club 33, which I had been wanting to visit for ages. I still haven’t been inside, but hopefully someday soon I’ll make it happen.

Riding the carousell was classic and fun.

We also visited the California Science Center, and got to see the Space Shuttle Endeavor in person.
