The beginning of a wonderful Mother's Day Weekend
I have had a fabulous Mother's Day Weekend. Saturday was a beautiful day in Southern California and Disney's California Adventure was a fun place to be. Since our tickets were a gift ($122 value), it helped take away some of the feeling of urgency to "get the most for my money." We had only been to the park one time before and it was many years ago so we weren't sure where to start or what to do. We wondered around, found a few rides that both Joshua and I wanted to ride on, toured the tortilla factory and bakery, had lunch and then discovered the Animation Studios. We attended four sessions where different artists taught us how to draw Disney Characters. Here is Joshua's sketch of Pooh. We also sketched Donald Duck, Goofy and Tigger. Joshua couldn't get enough of it so we just kept going back. The Animation Studios also had other interactive activities like doing a voice-over for a cartoon clip. We sang with Baloo and Mogli, the Seven Dwarf, the Lion King characters -- it was a blast. We ended the day at the Alladin live performance which is quite a show -- in true Disney style. We were at the park for about 10 hours and we both had an outstanding time together.
There's more to come...
