We bloggers have had an incredible increase in the number of readers and so a good percentage of you may have never read what I am re-posting.

It’s a Hard Knock Life
Posted onI spent 6 months helping my cousins in Miami take care of their two tortoises. By taking care, I mean I tossed lettuce into their pens and on occasion let them out separately to walk around the yard. This meant keeping the puppy away from the tortoises, and the dog, and the parrot, the snakes, … Continue reading "It’s a Hard Knock Life"
My Disneyland Birthday Extravaganza: The Wrap Up

With our camera equipment, snacks, and lists packed up and ready to go, Yoli and I headed back to Disneyland one last time for the week.

My Disneyland Birthday Extravaganza: The Party Continues
Posted onAll alone in my one bedroom suite at Paradise Pier Hotel, I contemplated having breakfast delivered by room service. Then I looked at the prices and that was the end of that thought.

Disney Pic of the Week – Interactive Attractions
Posted onGood times are had by all while romping around Disney parks but an even better time is had when we get to interact with the ride.

My Disneyland Birthday Extravaganza: The Next Day
Posted onAfter an extraordinarily funtastic birthday at Disneyland, Yoli, Drina, and I slept in a little bit. When we finally began dragging ourselves out of bed, I put a concert DVD into the player. Now, just imagine it was whoever your favroite band or singer is, and the concert is from 23 years ago when you … Continue reading "My Disneyland Birthday Extravaganza: The Next Day"
Don’t Rock the Boat
Posted onIf there’s one attraction at Disneyland that is overlooked more than the rest, it’s the Davy Crockett’s Explorer Canoes. I’ve only done it once but I’d do it again. If you don’t have any upper arm strength, you will after you paddle yourself around Rivers of America. That’s right my friends, YOU have to paddle. … Continue reading "Don’t Rock the Boat"
My Disneyland Birthday Extravaganza: The Big Day

Over the next few weeks I’ll recap my days at Disneyland including Club 33, Paradise Pier Hotel, and my favorite things to see, do, and where to dine. I was baffled as to where to begin this blog until Linda … Continue reading "My Disneyland Birthday Extravaganza: Planning"
Disney Pic of the Week: Audio-Animatronics
Posted onAudio-animatronics are a substantial part of Disney parks as they are attractions. What would it’s a small world or The Enchanted Tiki Room be without them? Nothing. And as the years go on they become more and more impressive. I only wish I saw Beaker and Dr. Bunsen Honeydew peddling their way around CA Adventure … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Audio-Animatronics"
