Disneyland highlights

We had a blast at Disneyland. My mom, muffy, shannon, curley, sid, john, heidi, dillinger, harley, hemi and myself all went over Preisdent's day weekend. Shannon and Sid got us kick butt deals on a very nice hotel. Better then some of the rooms we have stayed in; in the past. WE didn't have neighbors who came in and out by the hour. It was expected the same people would be in the one room ALL night long.

On Monday, when we went, California got the rainstorm of the season about 3- 4 inches in just one day. Oh, a little rain is not going to deter us from the happiest place on earth. No sir ee. We grabbed our ponchos and headed for the land of fun and laughter. It had its pros and cons. If you didn't mind a little rain, okay sheets of rain pouring down on you, You could get on rides with no wait. On splash mountain we litteraly didn't even get off the ride and stayed on and went again. It was the best. What takes most people to get done in 5 days we did in one morning. The kids got on space mountain in 5 mins. It sure made the day better because I didn't have to stand in line for hours with young kids.

After about the third downpour we decided to get the kids back to the hotel to dry off and get new clothes on. It stopped raining so John and i decided to head back out. My mom offered to watch hemi at the hotel so that we wouldn't have to take her out into the cold air. My mom is the best. We had a great time with the older three and rode all the coolest rides like mr. toads wild ride and it's a small world. _everyone's favorite. If you want to make the most of disneyland go when it is incliment weather. Next, time I will try and time it during an earthquake I bet we could have the whole thing to ourselves. A great time was had by all.
That's my heidi. I sure do love that girl.
