Disneyland
Went to disneyland Last week before school started. WOW can you say$69.00 for an adult now, $94.00 for a park hopper!!! Our friend Voula was here from Australia as well, so we had that excuse as well. The greatest thing happen to us…
We were getting off of the Pirates of The Caribbean and we were approached by a couple of Disney officials, usually when this happens I get a disney escort to the parking lot!!! Well he was there to inform me that my son Aden was sitting in the right seat to win the grand prize of the day. It is The YEar of a Million Dreams, well we won a guided tour of Disneyland… We were thinking, great just we want a babysitter at Disney… Then they informed us it included an escort to the front of any ride we wanted to go on for four hours… Now we thought that was cool. After filling out a pile of paper work we given a tour guide. Mickey Mouse, j/k, we had a girl named Karen. It was awesome we pretty much rode every ride we wanted for four hours… In both parks. When we were done with Disneyland we went to California Adventure… It was great… I didn’t bring a camera, but to see some shots visit Voula’s blog… Voula’s Notes

Congrats on getting the VIP treatment at Disney. Many years ago, when my wife and I brought my daughter there it rained. We had to buy cheap plastic ponchos from one of the concession stands. I couldn’t believe it was raining. What I’d like you to expand upon is how you’re usually escorted to the Disney parking lot —
@danwagnerphotography - Escort to the parking lot… Thats what happens when your young and acting out of control in the park… Mickey and donald take you out there and beat you down and then put you on the tram… only happened once!!!
You, at Disneyland and NO CAMERA?! And you call yourself a photographer. Shame…shame on you!! LOL!
What happened? Did someone slip you a Mickey and you got Goofy?

@Borelfoto - the Mickey and the Goofy part hit it on the head exactly… we were young!!! I leave camera stuff at Disney to the tourist… I have my wives point and shoot and my iPhone, I do want to make a day out of chasing the mullets though… great people watching place…
That is so cool to be the winner of the guided tour. Randall’s comments are too funny. I think you should share the complete story of getting kicked out. At universal they have a Hard Rock in the Park that serves alcohol, mistake when you are just 21 and in collage. Although I didn’t get a beat down from any of the characters.
