I couldn't narrow the pictures down to the best so I added almost all of our pictures from our trip to California in these collages. I love Picassa.com! To see the photos bigger you can click on the collage.
We took Makell and Kaison on Tower of Terror not realizing how scary it was. If you can see their faces it is kind of funny. They are shocked and frozen. They did not go on this ride again. We did - we went 2-3 more times!
The night life of Disneyland is simply brilliant. The lights, fireworks, music, and joy just keeps you going. My mom and dad were exhausted by lunch we kept them going! They were great helpers with the kids and they really did enjoy themselves.
After Disneyland we went to Universal Studios. It wasn't my favorite park we went to but the Shrek 4-D made the day worth it! The chairs moved in the movie, it squirted water on us at the right times of the show to make the movie come to life. We even were squirted with air and something touched our legs and feet to make it feel like spiders. It was a creepy but awesome experience. The kids loved it and they loved meeting Shrek and their absolute favorite - Curious George.
Sea World was a wet day. We got soaked at Shamu, at the Seasame Street 4-D movie, the river rafting ride wasn't that thrilling but it sure get us wet, and the favorite ride of the trip was Atlantis. Kaison went on that ride 5 times or more.
I love Quinn's face in these pictures. He is so curious and amazed by touching the sting rays. He loved touching the rubbery & slippery wings. Makell wouldn't even get close.
The San Diego Zoo and the Animal Safari Park were on the City Pass. We decided to go to the Animal Safari Park to try something new. It was just okay. There wasn't much to see and everything was pretty dull. I was definitely recommend the zoo to others. We did enjoy a bird show and a tour around the park but nothing compared to the Hogle Zoo and the zoo in Omaha. This was our fifth day of walking around and seeing this...that could've made this park's experience not top notch too.
The green bird above on Kaison was a neat exhibit. We didn't buy the nectar is was $3 but a lady gave us a little bit that was left. The birds would land on you and eat the nectar. The kids who had a full cup had a dozen or more birds on them. There was a little kids who got scared and was crying bloody murder. It was pretty funny! Kaison and Quinn were amazed and loved it! I should've bought the nectar to get a better picture but they did enjoy themselves.
When we were at the Animal Safari Park and at the beach Makell asked if we can go back to the hotel pool. She is a little fish and loves to swim but didn't like the salt water and waves. Kaison is swimming really well too. He felt comfortable with a noodle in the pool but there were times he would push the noodle away and swim to it. He is going to be as strong of a swimmer as Makell soon. They are both little fish!
