Disneyland--
My favorite things were CarsLand (new area in California Adventure), the pirates ride, Space Mountain and the tower of terror. It was gorgeous weather. I also really enjoyed the parades. The cool thing was that Lena got two free hopper passes because she is an Editor for BYU and so she has a "press pass" that gets her all kinds of cool tickets. She also gets 4 free tickets to Sea World!
Saturday was beach day. It was a lovely time on the beach. We did lots of things, including a sea shell hunt, meditation, ballet, and karate. Then we ate at Ruby's on the Pier.
This is Balboa Island. We took the Ferry (2-3 minute ride) to get there. You can walk all the way around Balboa Island in about an hour. We stopped in the shops, and enjoyed the beach/water and the cute beach houses on the island. It's fairly quiet and peaceful.
California State Historical Citrus Park! This place was so cool. Groves and groves of orange trees. We also found some grapefruit trees. We had fun walking through the groves and smelling the oranges. :)
The Mission Inn: According to Lara, it was originally built for monks to live there and teach/tutor Native Americans. Now it's a fancy Hotel and lots of Celebrities and other important people stay there. I totally loved exploring this place! It was so awesome! The architecture was SO stunning, and I was amazed that they let visitors just wander around the place. I was truly amazed by it.
A perfect California Breakfast :)
Sad that vacations like this must always end. :(
