60th Birthday and Disneyland

When we were in CA last summer, I heard that Disneyland was celebrating their 60th Anniversary and that is when I decided that I was going to Disneyland for my 60th Birthday. On Saturday, February 20th, Pat, William and I headed to Laguna for a night. After we got settled into our room, we went out looking for food. A couple of blocks down we found El Ranchito, which came highly recommended by Michele. We had lunch, then Pat and I continued to walk towards the town and by the beach.
 
 
 
Our hotel was right on the ocean, during high tide you couldn't walk down on the beach.

It was a nice first day/evening to our trip. Sunday we got up and headed for Disneyland. We stayed at the California Adventure Resort right on the Disney property which was really nice. The hotel opens right into California Adventure Park and we were right outside Downtown Disney. Sunday afternoon/evening we checked out Downtown Disney and had dinner at Pat O'Briens.
Monday we were at California Adventure Park all day and went back at night for a light laser show.

 Love the Mickey wheel.
 Light and water show.
It was a pretty exhausting day. We all slept well then it was to Disneyland for the next day. It was a Tuesday at the end of February not a high tourist time of year, yet the park was packed. I probably shouldn't have been surprised, but I was. Pretty sure I don't want to be there when they consider it "in season".

Wednesday morning we left and came home to a yard full of Flamingoes....... Thank you, Sister!
 
 Birthday weekend over, it was fun while it lasted and the memories will live on.

That's all for now!
