ill start with disneyland

so i recently went to disneyland....again. I went on june 8th i believe with my family when everyone got together. and that was a special time.
then i went again on july 7th and had an another amazing time. this time i got to see california adventures.





they have some cool stuff over there. they have tower of terror which is a twilight zone themed free fall ride.





they have this ride called soaring over california. in theory its an amazing ride. its like a realistic imex/star tours type ride. but way bigger and way more realistic. it has amazing pictures and amazing sense of realism. the ride scared the crap out of me. ill never go on it again. you dont go any higher then 20 feet at most, you dont go sideways or up side down. no rough and tumbleness. it is just so realistic it scared me.
some more pictures from california adventures















one last part of california adventure for now. they have this ride called toy story mania. its a interactive 3d shooting game. you ride in these carts and it takes you around and stops in front of these screens and you shoot targets and earn points. prolly cause im super competitive but i could ride this ride all day long. it is the coolest thing ever. and in the fron they have a large sized working mr potato head. he sings and talks. its pretty cool




we spent most of the day in california adventures. but we also spent some time in disneyland





rumor has it that for 600 dollars you can spend 1 night sleeping above pirates









we spent some time walking around down town disney.they have this huge and amazing disneystore. i love that place.







combine 2 of my favorite things. disney and gators



one for my brother





and then night fall came. and we saw the electric parade





one of my Fav's








we figured that california adventures was closing at 9 and the fireworks started at 9:25 so no problem. wrong. at 9:12 the parade was still going on so we had to run back to disneyland. and then find a spot to stand as everyone in the park was standing here.







dumbo flew over the castle









my fav firework one




and the end of the night



sorry for all the pictures. i was thankful to holly for getting me out of the house. and for allowing me to turn it into a picture taking trip. i really had a good time just being in disneyland and doing photography. i want to spend time getting better with my camera so hopefully this is a start. its some of the better pictures i have ever taken. and i entered 2 of them in a photo contest.
