Disneyland and Universal Studios

First, I have to say, I was like a little girl when we woke up to go to Disneyland! I couldn't wait! The last time I had been there I was in Kindergarten and there were a ton of new things since then. I remembered that the newest attraction was Space Mountain. I'm not that old, right!?! Anyway, we were excited to be kids together.

For anyone who doesn't know, I get extremely sea, air and motion sick. This has been a really hard thing for Michael to get used to. Lucky for us, I brought my Vomosin (Mexican Dramamine) with me, so I could go on all the rides I wanted to.

We started in the Disneyland Adventures Theme park. It was a blast! We went ahead and started the day off with the Tower of Terror, nothing like starting the day off with the scariest ride. We rode a few rides, and headed over to Disneyland! We were so excited. Did you know that they pump the smell of popcorn in the entrance? Yep, they do. Indiana Jones, Thunder Mountain, the Haunted Mansion (I would recommend that you skip it if you go there for Christmas time, was pretty terrible), the Matterhorn, Space Mountain and Star Tours...it was right after Star Tours that we realized something terrible. Yep, I didn't have my phone. "Michael, call mine", I asked. "I dont know where my phone is...". Coincidence? I don't think so. So, there went all of our connections to the outside world, email, phone, calendars, FACEBOOK! So, our day ended going to the Lost and Found at Disneyland to file our phones missing. I still think it is a conspiracy, Michael really wants an iPhone.

The next day, after a scary night at the hotel, we headed out to Universal Studios. I love the tour of the studios. I got to meet Matt Daemon and Michael met the Hulk, it really made his day.

We saw Jaws, rode on the Mummy Ride, the Jurassic Park ride, they were great!

Michael met the Hulk. I know he is a big fan. He seemed a little upset at the request of 'gimme knuckles', but was a good sport.

That night after we left, we went sightseeing on Hollywood. The street performers were great and looking at all of the famous actors and actresses at Grauman's Chinese Theater. Dorris Day's feet were so tiny! My all time favorite was Roy Rodgers and Trigger.

Justin Timberlake was not too warm and fuzzy, but handsome all the same!

This street performer was AWESOME! I said it was for the boys, but secretly, Michael wanted a picture with him, so I gave in.

Well, that was our trip to Los Angeles. It was really nice to be able to get away with Mike and if you ask me, it was a good thing that we lost our phones. We had a chance to reconnect, enjoy eachother and not worry about the ouside world. We both love being engaged and are so glad that we are blessed to be able to go on vacations and trips together, having time to make new memories and continue to learn about 'us' as a couple.
