I grew up at the beach in Australia and am now living with my American husband (JD) in Southern California.

We met on vacation in New Zealand and have always loved to travel. Having kids has slowed us down.... just a little.

Both kids have been back to Australia multiple times and a couple of cruises each and always want to know when we are going to the hotel again.... this is our story.

I am in the process of retiring this blog. Come join me at Aussie Rebecca

Disneyland


This weekend was the Memorial Day weekend so we decided to take the kids to Disneyland. We have annual passes and they have block out days during the summer so this is one of the last weekends we can use them before September.

As fate would have it, we also had some timeshare points from the Disney Vacation Club that were about to expire so instead of wasting them we decided to stay at the Grand Californian Hotal for 2 nights and spend one day by the pool.

Sunday morning and early afternoon was spent by the pool even though the sun didn't peak through the clouds until almost noon. We also got to catch up with an old friend of JD's for dinner. It's so much fun catching up with people who knew him when he was really young, they have the best stories... lol.

Monday we got up early so Mr 5 could get all his rides in before Disneyland got too crowded and we needed to head home.

Here are some of the rides they got to go on, between 9 am & 3pm.

Star Wars
Small World
Dumbo
Carousel
Alice in Wonderland
Tea cups
Casey Jr
Autopia
Monorail
Matterhorn
Haunted Mansion
Big Thunder Mountain
Winnie the Pooh (Miss 4 - twice)
Buzz Lightyear (Miss 4 - twice)

We had all had a great time. Even though the kids have been many times before they didn't want to leave. I was tired and wanted to beat the traffic home so the kids could get to bed "on time" for school Tuesday.
