Parades and the beach!



We went to a couple different parades/shows while we were there, Mickey's Soundsational Parade, Pixar Play Parade, The World of Color, and the firework show over the castle.  They really out do themselves with these, they are very well done!! I really liked the firework show over the castle and I especially liked how Tinkerbell flew over the castle all lit up, appartenly it is a really person! (I thought it was a holagram or something)

Disneyland should be commended on how clean the place is.  It is "the cleanest place on earth!"  With so many people you would think that it could be a mess but it is so, so clean with trash bins and bathrooms all over the place.
                            



There are a couple of designated smoking areas in Disneyland, while standing in line Mitch laughed and laughed when he saw this guy.  Bravo!  Well done, making BYU and Mormons everywhere proud!



After three days of Disneyland/ California Adventure we had one day to shop and go to the beach.  They had a cool Lego store and the girls enjoyed some of the statues made of Legos.  Picking out a souvenier can be a difficult challenge when you want to buy EVERYTHING!




The beach was a little cool and breezy for me but I did enjoy that the sun was shining and OUT!  It is amazing even in February how much warmer the water is in Southern California than on the Washington coast.  The kids didn't seem to mind the breeze, got wet and had fun playing in the sand.




Lucy enjoyed the freedom of being able to walk around, not being restrained in a stroller!



What a fun trip! Walking around for four days straight is definetely not a relaxing vacation but was sure FUN!  We were sad to have to go home and back to reality!! We are already talking about the next time we go.
