so i updated on sunday.
so we have 2 days to write about.
monday was disneyland for the third day.
it opened later yeterday, at 10am instead and closed at 8 not 10, so it was a shorter day, but it was still good. pretty quiet there and stuff because the weather was iffy.
so the rides we did was:
peter pan's flight
mr toad's wild ride
king arthurs carousel (me)
casey jr circus train
then we went to the innoventions sciencey display
and also saw a show on the honda asimo which is a robot www.asimo.honda.com
then i went on
space mountain
buzz lightyear astro blasters (i got 43500 score)
astro orbitor
andrew went on buzz and got 7000... i rock!
we both did the finding nemo ride and autopia cars
got the railroad to new orleans
he did pirates of the carribean
i did haunted mansion and splash mountain.
i got SOAKEd!!!!!!! like i was drenched and i froze.
stupid.
we then went to some resstaurant and they had a show on which we watched a bit of but then we left and i did thunder mountain railroad.
also before that we got our caricatures painted which was really fun! they look good we'll have to take a pic of them and post it later.
so we left about 6.30 and went to denny's for dinner andrew really liked it there and actually my meal was really nice too.
so gina picked us up at 9 after we explored the rest of downtown disney and signed up to go see a presentation about the disney vacation club.
so this morning we got up, gina took us to the OC airport and we picked up our rental car. we came back to the house so i could properly get dressed and have a shower since i threw jeans and a jacket over my pjs lol.
then we went to the disney thing and went to this presentation. they gave us drinks and muffins and we learned all about their vacation club which is really expensive but which we thought would be good value IF they had more hotels part of it in australia (there is 4. 2 in qld and 2 in nsw) and it would make the cheap vacations still really expensive for us. basically you pay like a huge amount, and for 50 years you get pretty much free holidays apart from an annual fee and the hotels are all 5 star resorts and disney hotels etc.
so we did that and then we hopped in the car and went to applebee's for lunch. had no idea where it was, but we had a gps so hehe it has all restaurants stored in it! yay so we found one and went there. i'd always wanted to go to applebee's and it was good. i had a steak and it was yummy.
then we gps'ed it to a walmart. we went to the one in huntington beach. my gosh we spent a fortune, i got some scrubs! i might put them on now for bed lol. and some scrapbooking stuff, and a suitcase and some shirts for my brother and some contact lens solution coz it's cheap and some coffee for pressies for people and a jacket for me for the snow and stuff like that. we spent like 300 bucks at walmart lol.
then we came home...
had tacos for dinner yumm...
then gina, me and cristina went to david's bridal for a look... AND I boughT my wedding dress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
woohoo! it was pretty cheap $702.20US for dress, corset and petticoat/slip. so i was happy. good price and it's lovely. it has little sleeves i don't like that are removable so i will get my nanna to take them off i think.
anyway so that's exciting. we layby'ed it till firday when we get paid and will pick it up. i chose a veil too which wasn't in stock so we'll order that friday and gina will pick it up for me and post it when it comes in so that's good.
i'm very excited about finding my dress!
anyway it's late so i'm going to bed. night all!
