AUDIOBLOG: Talking about Disneyland

Recorded from the car, I talk about our family's recent trip to Disneyland and Legoland this past weekend.

Disneyland at last!

Well, as you can see, The Yee Family FINALLY made it to Disneyland ;-)

It's amazing how small The Matterhorn really looks 40 years after I first saw it...I remember it being gigantic as our family approached Anaheim in our station wagon on I-5. NOW, you can't even see the park that's now surrounded by parking structures and other buildings.

But, it sure hasn't lost it's magical appeal. The kids LOVED the park. We were there from 9AM when they opened to arround 8PM after getting too wet on Splash Mountain to stay in the cold. Tomorrow, we're braving California Adventure...and since we've got a Hopper Pass, I'll likely sneak back into Disneyland one last time. Brandon and I have already been on The Matterhorn several times.

We're having a blast!

Landing in Legoland

Isn't this amazing? Mount Rushmore is totally made up of Lego pieces...

The Yee Boys landed in Legoland today! Brandon and Nicholas, especially, have been looking forward to this part of the trip. We took off to Carlsbad after leaving Maria, Alexandra, and Reggie in San Diego. Alex had a dance competition with those tough Southern California girl dancers who can afford to be choreographed by famous L.A. dancers (hehehe). Well, it's all in good fun anyway, right?

Well, the competitive side of me says, "Go beat 'em, Alexandra!" LOL!!!

And the good news, Alex placed fourth in the competitive solo division...YAY, Alex!

Back at Legoland, the boys and I were enjoying the rides and the $4 hot dogs (groan). If you go to YeePhotos.com, you can see pictures of some of the facinating structures (The Eifel Tower, New York City, The Golden Gate Bridge, etc.) made out of Lego pieces...truly amazing.

And still to come, Disneyland tomorrow!
