Today put the sun in Sunday, it was one beautiful (but super hot) day! I took the day off and we headed down to Disneyland bright and early this morning so that we could beat the crowds and have a little fun. I think everyone else had the same idea too, Disneyland was PACKED! We have this book about inside secrets to the park and it tells you which rides to ride first based on how long they take and how many people can get through at a time. One of the rides that takes the longest to get through is Dumbo because of the loading, unloading and how many people it can take at a time, so we always go to that one first. Or if anyone is planning on going soon and you want to check out the new Finding Nemo ride, run and get in line the minute the park opens, today there was well over a 90 minute wait. We skipped Nemo since we’ve ridden it already and didn’t feel like waiting that long.

I’m a bad photographer, when I go to Disneyland I usually just take my little point and shoot camera and throw it in the backpack. The few times that I took my DSLRs I regretted it because I was constantly worried about them getting broken, bumped or stolen. With my point and shoot it’s just so much easier, although I think everyone else had their nice DSLRs with them, not so many point and shoots being carried anymore.

My kids would rather eat dirt than have me try and photograph them, so out of the 6 hours we were there today I took a grand total of 8 photos and three little video clips. So I’ll share two of the photos and one of the clips. I hope you all had a great weekend!

PS - It’s ok if my voice gets on your nerves in this video, it gets on mine too, at least you don’t have to live with it and hear it 24 hours a day!

I call this video “When Giant Hands Attack!
