Hi All!
This is my very first ever trip report so welcome along! My family has this game we like to play. We believe most everyone's personality fits with a character from Winnie The Pooh, and we sure do have ours!
So....introductions!
Me, Kelly, I'm totally a Rabbit. I'm a bit neurotic, planner extraordinaire, self admitted perfectionist.
My dear husband, Bob, Tigger all the way. Loud, fun, goofy, and full of energy
Our daughter, Kiya (7) she's a Roo. Her and her Daddy are BFF's. Cute as a button
My kids from my first marriage who live with us also went on this trip..
My son, Dray (21) he's a Eeyore through and through. Quiet, self conscious and sweet as can be
My daughter, Devin ( she turned 17 on this trip) yep she's a Pooh. The first words out of her mouth in the morning" are we going to stop to eat?" Would give you the shirt off her back.
Day 1 April 18
And away we go! This is our second trip to Disneyland. We took Kiya when she turned 5, but the first time to DLR for my older 2. Bob and I had to work until 3:00 on the Saturday we left, we own a small salon/spa in Colorado and we are both massage therapists and hairdressers. ( don't judge my hair in the photos, I'm on vacation!) we had an 8:00 pm flight out of DEN, which was thankfully uneventful ( flying makes me nervous) and landed in Orange County around 9:45, grabbed a cab and away we go to the Paradise Pier Hotel! We got a great 6th floor room with 2 queens and a "daybed" overlooking parts of Paradise Pier, we could see the top of Mickey's Fun Wheel from our window. I usually take tons of pictures but somehow didn't manage to snap one of that view. It was close to 11:00 by the time we got settled in our room so it was high ho, high ho it's off to bed we go since we had early entry at California Adventure at 7:00 am the next morning. Man 5:45 comes around fast!
