Disneyland and Sea World

This year Disneyland lets you get in free on your birthday. I wanted to go to Disneyland for my 31st birthday and Erica is still free. So, we all got in for the price of one, which is still way too expensive, even for three people.


Erica loved Disneyland and still talks about the Tiki room - we accidentally ended up in there and thought it was the stupidest thing we had ever seen. However, it was one of Erica's favorite. She was a little scared on the Jungle Cruise, but talked about it a lot afterward. She liked Dumbo, or as she calls it, "Go, elephants, go!!!" We only made about six rides before she was done, but we had a great time.


We also stopped by Sea World on our Southern California tour. Erica loved the sharks the most. She also liked the starfish, penguins, otters and polar bears, but she had NO interest in the dolphins.


Here is how Troy decided to hold Erica over the shark viewing area. Does this make anybody else really nervous?


Troy, Erica and Troy's sister Molly. When everyone asks where Erica gets her blond hair from, we say, "Molly".
The only family shot we could come up with.


On the way out, we made the mistake of letting Erica walk instead of ride in her stroller. She tripped and landed forehead first on the pavement. We had to take her to the first aid place at Sea World. She turned out to be fine, but she had a nasty bruise for awhile.

At the end of our trip we got to stay with my brother's family. He has an awesome pool that we spent most of our time in. We also hit up the beach one more time. Troy spent his time in the water and we spent our time at the slide.

Sounds like fun. That's great that you only had to pay for Troy at Disney. I can't wait to take Raiden, even if he only lasts through 6 rides! I know he would love Pirates.
