Christmas California Adventure (14)
On December 30, we went to Disneyland. We expected it to be the land of our innermost dreams, but it turned out to be the corporate world gone bad, and waiting in line for an eternity. I didn't think it would be that busy on that day, but it was. But when you go to a highly populated tourist attraction like Disneyland, you just have to expect things like that. So we just made the most of our day and enjoyed what little we could do, even if it meat waiting around for a bit.
Jenny was the one who really wanted to go, and she didn't let her expressions deceive us. She was all smiles all day long, and I went the extra mile to include my Mom in the pictures, as she quipped that she wasn't featured predominantly on my site.
I don't know why this picture has a light blue hue to it, but I tried several times to take it, and it turned out weird every time. I thought this one was the best, cause I'm being weird like always, Jenny is smiling, and Tim is being, well...Tim.
Here are the three Reck kids that decided to visit this happy place (James opted to go golfing instead.) We mingled with the common folk that frequented the Disney Main Street area, and became assimilated into their culture.
This picture was taken for two reasons; 1- to show the love between a mother and a daughter, and 2 - to show the world that I really do want to feature my mother on this website.
Tim just looked funny waiting in line to go into Innovations, so I had no choice but to take his picture. That place was a waste of time. In retrospect, I would've got a fast track pass for Space Mountain instead of Star Tours, but you can't change the past.
We went in this "Virtual Suite" place that was nothing more than a big advertisement for Pioneer speakers. Every few seconds it would mention "imagine a world where sound is as incredible as the sound that comes from a speaker from Pioneer.
It was kinda cool that the images of an Ancient Greece village could be superimposed on a wall via holographic technologies, but I could've done without the whole corporate sponsor interceding every three seconds, It was basically a waste of our time that could've been better spent riding Space Mountain.
