It's A Small World

Haunted Mansion

(130916) Day 12.... Anaheim

I was up at 8.30am packing like a ninja whilst the kids slept on. I woke Jared at 9.30am and as usual Kasey had to be dragged out of bed literally minutes before I was about to walk out the door. We were packed and on the road by 10.30am and we said our goodbyes to San Diego and headed back north to Anaheim!

(120916) Day 11.... SeaWorld/La Jolla

Luckily I felt a bit better this morning! There was no way we were missing SeaWorld!! Upon arrival we headed straight for the Dolphin show having just missed the Shamu show.

There were some little whales in the dolphin show.... Can't remember what they were called :)

On the way to find a roller coaster we went past the sea lions and flamingos. Have never seen a flamingo before - they were more peachy orange than pink. Lovely colour not so lovely smell lol

The kids were hanging to go on a ride so off we went to the Manta. They had a ball and I took a couple of fab pics!!!!!

We had missed the Shamu show but still got to see them particularly below the water was amazing!!

We saw the Penguins....

The turtles....

The Sharks....

The kids went on the cable cars and the Sky Tower!!

Our day was nearly done except for a quick visit to La Jolla beach....

Sadly not much sun today but still some beautiful views....

We got back to San Diego where I popped in to the infamous TJ Maxx where I got some amazing bargains on Samsonite wheelie carry ons for the kids (A$105 each) and they were bigger than mine and a whopper for A$135. Much cheaper than at home!!

The kids begged for In and Out once more so we drove thru for their dinner and went back to the hotel for our last night in San Diego :)

(110916) Day 10.... Sick

So sadly I was really sick today and so they kids insisted we stayed in the hotel and rest. I have to say that it wasn't a hard argument. I went out and got them In and Out for lunch and then fell back into bed. I took Jared to the pool for a swim and then once again fell back into bed :(

Unfortunately one item comes off the agenda which is the Zoo....

(100916) Day 9.... Legoland

There wasn't a lot of the air in the room and we were hot but didn't want to leave the air conditioning on so we left the fan on which made it stuffy and I woke up with a sore throat :(

Up we got and headed off to Legoland!! Today was the second time driving and thankfully I was a little more comfortable driving today.

I drove in this!!!!!!

Legoland is such a happy bright colourful place and even though it is mostly directed to the younger kids, I am thrilled we went!!! The kids went on some rides (and I went on the Dragon) we played some putt putt, had yummy pizza for lunch and had a huge walk around the park. Jared won a Pikachu throwing bags at cans and a big blue dragon shooting hoops.... Only thing is to work out how to get the big one home. He can cuddle the Pikachu but the other is massive!!!! Would love to see Jez trying to get that one around the house 😂😂😂

One of his favourites :)

We made our way back around 5.30pm (the park closed at 6pm) and the kids jumped into the pool.

Another big day tomorrow..... SeaWorld!!!!!
