Today's Adventure



So let me get this straight. Judy gets Jules on a horse, and then to ride the Matterhorn (roller coaster in disguise- and Thunder Mountain (another Roller coaster in disguise) then why when we got on the rockets that go smoothly maybe 50 feet in the air, breeze blowing through your hair, great view of the park ...does Judy jump out of her rocket and run and I mean RUN, for the exit. Is it me?? lol.

Yes we went to Disneyland today. The happiest place on earth. For those of you that have never been there here are some pics. We spent the whole day there happy as can be and may go back for the fireworks tonight.

Disney rides are always visual. One ride we went on that everyone said is a must see was Indiana Jones. WOW. you ride a jeep and the visuals are incredible right down to the rolling rock comin at ya. Peter Pan is another that gives you the feel of flying through the stars way high in the sky. Oh and who is the girly girl? We rode Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story and you get to shoot lazers at the visuals and you get a score. Judy got 58,100 to my 8100. lol. I suck. haha. Oh well. After I got done crying over it that is when she ran from the rockets. haha

We ate a light lunch and walked and walked. The scenerey is always beautiful. By far Disney is always the happiest place on earth (with tons of screaming babies.) lol. Just kidding. Was a great day. Enjoy the photos. :-)

Imperial Beach - Talking to Strangers



I did not know how this parking trinket worked but Judy did. It was so low tech I could not wrap my head around it. lol.


Ok so how many times were we warned never to talk to Strangers? We drove to Coronado over the bridge and then to Imperial beach. Started off as a quiet scenic day. Suddenly, we heard a guitar, and then another and saw this cute little bar called The Plank. It was warm and sunny inside, had closed walls and an open roof, lots of seats. We were the first two there but that only lasted a short time when the music was playing. This little garage band called Triple Shot played all the music we love from the 70's and 80's. At times they had open mic allowing other singers to join. I tried to get Judy up there but she was having too much fun talking to strangers. So then I did too. Everyone in the bar was very into hearing all about our trip. Apparently we were obviously East Coast girls. Everyone wanted to be in our blog. In the pics are Mike, Guy, Lori and the Diva girls sitting behind us at the table. You might even spot YOKO ONO. lol. Strangers are fun and if you follow the rule never talk to them, you will never know some of the silliest coolest people and their stories. A stranger gave me the shirt off his bar stool becaust it was getting cold and I was freezing. lol. The pictures are just ok since most were taken by the strangers. hehe


This band was so cool and we had a lot of fun. Gotta love those garage bands. Packing up today to the next adventure. Not tired yet!!!
