Disneyland

Our first day at Disneyland...this cute smile quickly changed to panic and fear.  While Mitch and Mackenzie were riding a roller coaster, Marcus and I decided to do the ferris wheel.  Now Im not a fan of ferris wheels but Marcus really wanted to go on it so I did.  We took this picture right before the ride began.  Did I mention we were in a swinging one?  They had non swinging ones but there was a longer wait time for those.  We barely start moving and he froze and was sure we were going to die.  You literally would swing and see the ground below.  I was trying to keep him calm and focused.  He survived and decided that after that and the Tower of Terror he had just did before the ferris wheel was enough "risk taking" for one day.  He did go on to ride everything else with us and had a blast.

The Tower of Terror is what you see behind us.  In case you don't know what that ride is, it's a haunted tower where the elevator takes you to the top and then drops you.  When you get to the top it even opens it doors and you can see all of the park and then you fall!  This was our first ride...Marcus did not like it!

Waiting in line for a ride...they didn't want to stand too close to each other.  Geez!

Mater from the movie Cars



a funny mirror :)



The castle at night!  So cool!

This is the ferris wheel that Marcus and I will probably never do again...did I mention it's also over water?!  It's higher than the roller coaster behind it!
