City of Lost angels...
We have been on the non stop fun roller coaster of the west coast and our tour guides The Sloans!! On Saturday afternoon we loaded picnic, kids, beer and assorted sundries into the cars and headed off to the pre show fun at the Grove...an outdoor shopping area where our dearest friend's introduced my sweet little girl to the world of "American Girl" stuff! Thanks Jan and Dave :) I do have to say they made up for the error of their ways by taking us to Bob's Donuts in the farmers market!! We road the double decker trolley back to the car and off we headed on our next adventure.
I am not one to wait in line at a cemetary but let me tell you it was worth the wait! We went to Cinespia, LA's cemetary screenings and saw The Muppet Movie. I honestly didn't see too much of the movie...I was too busy tripping on the whole scene! We had swung by Canter's deli and picked up a pound of corned beef, rye bread, cookies, etc plus all the yummy stuff Jan and I had gotten earlier at Trader Joes and the farmers market. I had picked up some local brew, Telegraph out of Santa Barbara and an IPA from Anderson Valley Brewing company. Both were decent but the Telegraph ( a wheat ale) not worth the 8 buck price tag and The IPA pale next to the Pliny Elder.
Yesterday we dragged the kids out of bed at 6 am just a few short hours after we poured them into bed the night before and off we went to Disneyland! Not sure anyone knows this about me but I think Disney is the happiest place on earth! Anyway, Maddie needed a wheelchair because she is nursing a soccer injury so we scored on some of the rides...of course she also needed a couple of Advil's after g-man pushed her all day (into walls, people, rides, etc...), he actually did get an honorary citizen award for his helpfulness :)
So, 16 short hours later we drove home and fell into bed!
what are we in store for on today's fun meter??
later, rob
