The Happiest Place on Earth

UPDATE: We finally have pictures!

Wednesday 3/17/10 was the kick off of our whirlwind tour of the Southwest. We had a good indication that the trip was going to go well when we arrived at LAX (me from SFO and Louisa and Neva from BOS) within 5 minutes of each other at adjacent gates - a serendipitous start to be sure!

After car rental (a Yaris, not our favorite, but at least no “acceleration issues”) we headed south to Anaheim and the Doubletree Disneyland, which ended up being a great hotel - not that we were there all that much.

The Second Happiest Place on Earth and more

After an incredible day at Disneyland, we got up and on the road the next morning headed south on the 5. It was a bit nostalgic for the grown ups as we passed our old stomping grounds in both Costa Mesa and Dana Point on our way to Carlsbad. Neva perked up a bit once she recognized the giant Lego letters on the drive into Legoland and immediately asked if I had brought her bathing suit.
