From Frozen land to Fantasy Land

Snowflakes were falling as we pulled out of the driveway, the radio was calling it the storm of the decade. In some areas there were 2+ feet of snow and our house had more than 16 inches of snow when we returned. Every friend  we had was posting complaints of the cold and crazy snow while we were gone. It was nuts!  My lovely sister-in-law was nice enough to give Jess and I a ride to the airport and by the time she took us, the snow was dropping in giant chunks and wow, it was blanketing the whole county. It took my sister-in-law almost 4 hours to travel 10 miles. Yeah, it sucked, but California OC/LA traffic just got trumped! Thankfully we missed it all. YAY. Now on to the fun weekend we had.

Disneyland was wonderful and cold. We got there about 20 minutes after the park opened on a Friday and wow, we got right onto all the big ticket rides we wanted. 5 minutes for Indiana Jones, 2 minutes for Pirates of the Caribbean.  We were off to a great start! The rest of the morning we hit Buzz Light year, Star Tours, Finding Nemo, Matterhorn, Space Mountain and we even saw Captain EO with 30 minutes or less for each ride. Wow!!!!

In the afternoon we had the longest ride of the day on the Peter Pan ride. Darn Fantasy Land always socks it to ya! But even more frustrating was that I didn't find this site until after I got home.  It's chuck full of great ideas to help you maximize your adventure.

All in all a great weekend. A bit cold, but fun none the less. After enjoying Disneyland we ate the yummiest Burgers at "our place" TK Burgers. Mmmmmmm Loved that heavenly moment. The rest of the weekend was simply fun with family and friends. Hopefully you can plan your own fun filled weekend where you can create great weekends, maximize the fun and enjoy the company of those you love.
