Disneyland

For Thanksgiving this year we decided to take advantage of the days off and head off to a resort in Redondo Beach where we stayed off the marina. The room was pretty nice- we left on Tuesday night after work and Syona slept the entire way there. We got there around 12:30 at night and Syona spent the next 90 minutes running around and jumping in the room. She was so excited about our "road trip!". While at Redondo Beach we had picnic on the beach, took her to some small rides on the ghetto boardwalk and played skii ball, and went to a really nice Thanksgiving buffet dinner at the hotel. On Black Friday we decided to take Syona to Disneyland! We left the hotel around 8AM and didn't get back until past midnight. We went on Mr. Toad's While Ride and Peter Pan's Flight first (which I didn't realize) are actually kind of scary, so after we got off the 2nd of the two rides, she broke into tears. We stopped to eat our homemade sandwhich lunch and then took her to the princess show where she danced around and really enjoyed. (since disneyland, we introduced her to the Anastasia Movie which she loves). We then took her to Mickey's house in toon town, waited in line for 90 minutes only for her to cry when we finally met Mickey. See pic :) After her nap, we got icecream and watched the parade which was really fun and she liked, and went on the submarine ride. We had some burgers, fries, apple sauce for dinner and then saw the Fireworks. She was so sleepy by then but was enjoying her large lollipop. It was suuuper cold day, but she didn't want to wear her mickey hat and gloves the whole I think because she wanted her pigtails out. haha. And she was enjoying her nice big disney lollipop. The last ride we took her on was small world, which she really loved, and we probably should have just ridden that all night. I changed her in her PJs and we rushed to get out of the park. She fell asleep in her stroller so instead of taking the tram back, we walked a mile to the parking structure but got some yummy bennets on the way back! It was a really fun trip for us, after we got back, Syona has been asking for another road trip and sometimes saying Mickey and DIsneyland :)
