Here we are at the airport in Long Beach!!! Just got off the plane and we were so excited to go play. We both love the humidity as well. The weather was perfect.
Getting ready to boogie board for the first time. Luckily Megan and I had been swimming for a few weeks before this trip and it helped to get my sea legs under me.
Second and third day at the beach. Weather was perfect. I didn't even get sunburned.
Megan being silly and Aunt Tracy in the background. She showed us all the fun spots to go and her little secrets to the good areas.
Megan's Uncle Chris out for the day teaching me to surf. My conclusion......Riding the wave= easy....catching the wave=hard
Going out on my own. That was scary. There were some nasty rip tides that I got into. Noob surfer!!!!
My wife has turned me into a beach bum. We had an afternoon run to get to La Jolla cove to do some snorkeling and I didn't remember to grab the camera. It was way crowded so we had to find our own little spot. We were right next to this huge flat rock with seals all over it and the coolest vegetation I have ever seen. Not a lot of fish though. After that we ended up back at the beach in Ocean Side. :)
Our first professional baseball game. The Padre's!!!! Oh yea we scored some awesome tickets.
We were right inline with 3rd base about 25 rows up just in the shade. It was perfect.
Megan and her camera fanciness. Awesome shot of the field.
The San Diego Zoo! Some shots of our favorite animals.
I have some awesome video of these two mountain lions tearing apart a cardboard box and one got his head stuck in it. Working on uploading that. My fancy new HDD Camera had some stinky software.
I love Panda's. They always eat with their backs to you. Since they eat most of the time. Kinda hard to get a good shot.
Ok, so I had never been to disneyland and really didn't know what to expect. Ultimately that place is insane. We were there from 9a.m. till 11:30 at night. Megan is a Disneyland expert and had the whole place mapped out and what rides to go on. We went to the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Carribean, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, The Matterhorn, we visited the Dream Home with all sorts of cool technology built into it. Indiana Jones and a few others.
This little shot was in the Indiance Jones Theme Ride. You pull on the rope and it feels like you break something below it. Kinda creepy.
Honey we Shrunk the Audience 3D movie.
This was the parade that we ran into after going to Splash Mountain. I've never seen a parade that intense. It was crazy!
Megan loves Tinkerbell. Tinks being a bit feisty today.
Minnie and Mickey!!
Pluto was one of my favorite characters so obviously we had to get a picture with him.
The California Ride Park was amazing as well. It has all the high speed and scary rides that you don't get in DisneyLand. The Twilight Zone Elevator of Death or whatever it's called was my favorite It has seven floors that it takes through for a story then drops and lifts you at high speeds to each one randomly. Huge Rollercoasters, Virtual reality flying over California, Turtle Talk with Crush which was the coolest thing I've ever seen. It's an A.I. that's built into a presentation and interacts directly with the crowd. That took us quite a while to do since it was crowded after the parade.
So needless to say Disneyland was the most crowded place I have ever been.
Just leaving the park after all the fun. Going back to DisneyLand.
This is what happens when you turn down the shutter speed on your camera lol.
Megan in front of the Disneyland Castle before Fantasmic started!
The end to an awesome day.
I love Fireworks!
So after going crazy for 5 days. We had to find a way back to the airport since everyone we knew was gone on a cruise for 6 days. Taxi Cab=200$ Rent a Car= $140 Train and Bus w/ 8 hours of traveling time = 24$ Limo Ride= 100 $ .....gee that's a hard choice. LIMO BABY!!!!
