Spring Break

We started off with a rain out of Peyton’s game on Saturday last week. We headed out after her game, but we had to pack up first, so it took awhile. We stopped a few times, and we ended up at DTF, but had to wait 1.5 hours. We walked around GLendale, waiting for our table to “call” us. Once we were seated, Dave went nuts with the ordering. Brandon ate 18 XLB, but we ran out. This was also after eating veggies, noodles and a pre-snack of a croissant while we were walking around. I had to tap out, and Peyton declared “I quit” half way through. We headed the rest of the way back to Dave’s parents’ house for bedtime.
We headed to the park in the morning, and Peyton took it easy. She didn’t go on anything new, staying safe with the rides she knows. She was excited to go on Hyperspace Mountain again, and enjoying the Food and Wine festival activities. We bought an Annual Pass food pass, meaning we had a discount on several food items. It was only when we saw the Kao’s the next day that she got a bit more daring. This day, she went on Splash with Mckayla, riding in the back together. Only 7 are allowed in a log, so we split up, with Peyton going with the Kao’s and Brandon going with us. Later, Brandon took Marcus’ place on Indy, since Marcus was too short. Brandon admitted he was a bit nervous, but he rode the ride in any case. He even thanked them on his own for taking him. I had Marcus and Peyton, while Dave was grabbing a fast pass for us. We waited in line for Mickey’s magical map, and even got first row seats for the three younger kids, then eventually, just the girls, but after a few minutes, the show was called off for some reason, after the first or second number. It interrupted naptime for the adults! We headed into toon town and got on Roger Rabbit. Brandon’s adult of choice was Uncle Ted! The girls got to ride together, while Dave and I had the other half of Ted and Brandon’s cab. We also did a pirates ride all together, and I snuck in a nap on this ride. We headed outside the park for dinner that we’d placed reservations earlier in the day. After eating our fill, the girls wanted to ride two Fantasyland rides, while Dave, Michelle and the boys went to the submarines. We then all met up for the parade and ended our evening with fireworks.

We had a late night back at home, and we took it easy on Tuesday. We met up with Mike and Yonhee before they headed out to their European babymoon. They saw the magic of Brandon’s eating ability, with Brandon and Mike as the last men standing eating after we were all done. We ate dinner at home with Dave’s parents that night, and turned in early. We headed back to the park for Wednesday. Peyton continued on her daring streak, riding Splash two more times, and then she agreed to the Matterhorn. She wasn’t happy about it at first, but after she rode on it, it was her new favorite ride! We went again! This time, with smiles, and the front seat! Dave sat out, as it was throwing him around too much. Wednesday, we headed out early to watch the basketball games. We went to a Mexican place and sat where we could see the games – Kobe’s last, and the Warriors’ quest for 73 wins in one season. We stayed to eat up until half-time then we headed home to have the kids shower up while we watched the remainder of the game. It ended up being the Lakers game, since the Warriors game was pretty much over.
Thursday was our last day of the park. We rode on the fire truck to reminisce, as the driver was there 10 years ago when we first brought Brandon. He was old back then, so you can just imagine. We were so happy to see him again, as we’d seen him periodically over the years. In hindsight, we wished we’d had a picture of him with Brandon when he was itty bitty. He had a love of fire trucks, so we made it a point to ride it, even with the stroller, all folded up. Walt himself used to drive that very car up and down Main Street. Peyton enjoyed Splash and Hyperspace mountain on that day. We also headed back to see the same animator at the Off the Page store, while the boys rode Tower of Terror, which Peyton still won’t go on willingly. We ended the evening with a quick line for TSM and our hyperspace mountain fast passes that we’d waited for after riding it earlier in the day.

Friday, Dave bought tickets for us to go to the SF vs LAD game. We went shopping for LAD gear for the game for the kids, and i ended up getting Warriors stuff. We had dim sum with Dave’s parents, then headed to beat traffic. The game was not until 7 pm, but we were on the road by 1pm. All the passengers took a nap, while Dave got us to Griffin Observatory. We walked from our parking spot to the building, which had been recently renovated. We walked around for quite awhile and saw other fans, both SF and LA, doing the same. We then headed to the stadium, and we were the first in line at the pre-paid parking lot. One of the security men must have heard us yelling at the kids who were restless, and asked us to jump the line. We zipped up just a few minutes ahead of them opening the gates. We then headed to our club level security gates and waited our turn there, too. This time, the time was firm. We wanted to make sure we got the free giveaway Jackie Robinson jerseys, as it was his day, April 15th. All the players wear the same number, #42. I was worried the kids wouldn’t hang in there, since we’d been out all day long. Brandon was the one who wasn’t interested in taking pictures and didn’t want to take the walking tour all throughout the stadium. Peyton was enjoyed herself thoroughly, stopping to take pictures of her beloved Kershaw memorabilia throughout the stadium. We had great seats, and once the game started, Peyton was into it, cheering for her players. The Giants weren’t doing well, so I had tuned out for awhile, but the kids got up during the seventh inning stretch to walk around. They lasted through the whole game and then we went down ON to the field for fire works. They weren’t as impressive as the Disney ones we’d seen, but they were super close. Dave wanted to beat the traffic out, so we left in the middle of the fireworks and caught the finale as we reached the car. We got out of there quickly, and we were on our way home.

Saturday, we headed out after a quick breakfast at home. We packed our stuff up, and we headed out, but not before making a stop near Chinatown to get Phillipe’s french dip sandwiches. Dave’s mom wondered why he didn’t eat much breakfast. It was because of this! We walked around Union Station and my old residency site, which has cleaned up a bit. It is still “urban”, but maybe a little less scary. We then went to Porto’s to get some more food for the road. After that, we settled in for the longer haul, not stopping until Harris Ranch. Then, Peyton had an emergency pit stop at Casa De Fruta, not being able to hold her bladder until the outlets as Dave had hoped. We also stopped at the outlets, then finally made it to a poke stop to get food for home. We got our stuff home and unpacked. We had to order a dryer as our current one broke, and then we will finish up the rest of the laundry. Today was a typical Sunday; practice for Brandon and groceries for Peyton and me. I dropped her off at practice, and then took Brandon back with me. All ready to start the new week!
