Disneyland Bound

Early in December, Christopher and I flew to Anaheim for a quick trip to Disneyland. We rented a car and drove out to ShopHouse. Have you heard of it? It's Chipotle Asian style.

So I went in with high hopes and left with an okay meal.

I had green curry over white rice noodles with the pork/chicken meatballs. Everything tasted good especially the meatballs, but it was the noodles that weren't up to par.

ShopHouse is located in a very cute and modern shopping complex called The Point.

I know shopping is not Christopher's thing, but he was receptive and I bought this shirt at Prana which i love, love love! Folks if it fits and feels good...go for it :)

We wanted to go to the beach and the closest one near LAX is Manhattan Beach.

Christopher was sporting his Seahawk gear, GO HAWKS!

There are a lot of cute places to shop at Mahattan Beach. I especially loved the Beehive and the Manhattan Beach Bakery. Do yourself a favor and buy yourself a treat.

THIS LITTLE FREEZER SECTION MADE MY HEART LEAP!

After Manhattan Beach, we drove out to Anaheim (Thank you Google Maps!) to visit the most wonderful place on earth, LOL! I am joking. Disneyland is fun, but hiking the Washington Coast with Christopher will always be my most wonderful place.

Hello Disneyland!

THE LINE TO GET IN.....

The real reason for Disneyland is Space Mountain. Yes, Space Mountain! 

 Above is the first ride and below is the second ride. You see how I prepared myself the second time!

Decided to try single riders to see if it would be faster. Do not use the single rider lane...I repeat..Do not use the single rider lane. You will watch people much farther than you pass you by while you wait!

Disney ended with a pretty fun parade and firework show. 

Goodbye Disneyland!
