California Adventures!

          We recently went to Cali in the past month. Such a gorgeous trip! We drove for almost a whole day to get to Anaheim! I'm from Washington, so it was kind of an intense drive fitting 7 people in a suburban, but worth it. It was so weird seeing palm trees, and the heat. Omg the heat. I had the worst sunburn! But all well worth it to take a fabulous trip!
       It was pretty cool to be surrounded by a ton of tourists cause a lot of them are foreign, so it was cool to see so many people from different countries come together, especially at Disneyland. Anyways these are just a few pictures that captured some fun moments!

                             Shamu show at Seaworld.
       
              Seaworld was probably the hottest day, and how I got my horrible sunburn. But so fun. I got to pet dolphins, and seeing Shamu was amazing.

                            Outside of Universal Studios!
       
                Going to Universal Studios was so amazing. It's not like a huge theme park. But we took a tour on the lot, it was cool to see the sets. I saw Mindy's apartment from The Mindy Project. THE MINDY PROJECT. And we saw the set for Psycho. PSYCHO. I was totally fangirling. And the Jurassic Park ride was pretty cool too.

                    Meeting Dug at California Adventure!
         
             California Adventure...I loved it. The river ride was amazingggggg and crazy. I had to wait like 2 hours to get on the Tower of Terror, but it was kind of worth it. I only got to see the beginning of World Of Color cause we had to haul ass to my favorite ride at California Adventure, Radiator Springs Racers! And the recreation of Radiator Springs was awesome! They had everything, they even made it look like there was the mountains, and Flo's Cafe and everything was there!

                                   Disneyland!
       
            This was my first time, in my 22 years of living, to go to Disneyland! I have the say, my favorite ride was the Indiana Jones ride. It was awesome. They put SO much amazing detail into their park. I love it. You just have to go and see for yourself! And my favorite area was the recreation of New Orleans. I LOVE New Orleans, and would love to go see it for myself someday. But seeing the recreation made me super happy and giddy, like a little girl. And I love the Soundsational Parade! I listen to it constantly from Youtube!

               Puttin a ring on it at the Hollywood Wax Museum.
         
            I'm not gonna lie, and I'm not crazy, but when I was here, I saw a shadow person. It was through the horror section, and my brother was in front of me, and I thought I saw someone walk ahead of him. I seriously thought it was a worker hired to scare us, so when we kept walking and nothing happened, I had to look and see if I could find the worker. There was NOTHING. It was crazy! Then I told my family about it, and they were just like, oh this place is haunted. And I was like, "haha WHAT?" It was cray cray and my brother saw it too, but he didn't think it was anything. It was exciting haha.

                                  Alcatraz!

          Alcatraz had a distinct smell, and there was bird crap everywhere, but still a cool trip. The ferry trip to Alcatraz was amazing, it was always nice in Cali, but it was BEAUTIFUL in San Francisco. We also walked through Chinatown. It's so busy in California, and I love it. I liked San Fran a LOT more than Hollywood. Hollywood felt weird and awkward, and smelled like poo. But in Hollywood we saw the Chinese Theater and I think it was the Egyptian Theater, which is where the first movie premiere in Hollywood was held! Back in the 20s!

                 In front of the Winchester House. So beautiful!

          The Winchester House was stunning. It smelt like old house, but it was just fun taking the tours and getting to see how wacky the house it. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take pics from the inside, because Lionsgate or someone had rights to film in the house, so that was lame. I'm sure there's some pics online somewhere of the inside. OH and we had a totally cute tour guide, who guided us through the garden and such. Loved him! He was so cute and funny.

                                              Anyways yeah. All around, and amazing trip!
