My Turkey Day Adventure started at 4:45a. "Uhhhh," my monster grumbled, and with that we took another hour of sleep before setting off. A few hours later, we had an easy drift into The City of Disney.
After a painless check in at the hotel across the street from the park, we dashed over for lunch in Downtown Disney before taking on the park. A quick lunch and then we were off.
First thing we did was get fast passes for Space Mountain. After that we did Snow White, Indie, and then Pirates. Sadly, Thunder Mountain Railroad was out of service. Star Tours was by far better than it used to be, and so was Space Mountain. Once again we managed to be on The Matterhorn when the fireworks went off. The fireworks though were pretty small in comparison to what we saw last year.
After a few short pit stops in the park for food, drink, and relief, we slowly made our way out of the park around 1130p. I was sure to pick up a t-shirt, it has Jack Skelonton on it. I was quite happy for the very short stumble back to our hotel room.
Black Friday found us in San Diego. Our plans were loose for San Diego, so due to lack of direction I wound up wandering the mall after most of the hoards of people had left. I found some very good deals and managed to buy new pants, shoes, and a bag. Afterwards we checked into the hotel to find a Christian Youth Convention going on. Soooo many teenagers. And then to top it off, the hotel was having an issue with their card key maker. We quickly dropped our stuff up in the room and then fled the hotel to find dinner. Loads of Tapas consumed, we took a walk to the pier and rode a merry-go-round. We get back to the hotel and find out the card maker is still out of service, so we wind up with a fancy "emergency key" to get back into our room.
The next day we wind up in San Juan Capistrano to see friends of mine. Amy and Eddie just got married a few months ago. Another round of Tapas, and too many drinks, we get back on the road. I learned Tapas is not enough food for proper drinking. It was a loooong drive back.
Today I indulged in bed. I got new Lush stuffs, new TV, and foods. All in all, a very spoiled weekend.
