I meant to post something longer on the trip to Disneyland. We went for Chris's birthday and it was surprisingly not as crowded as you would have expected for a summer day in Disneyland. That's all right though. Definitely not complaining about that. We got most of the rides done, including two attempts to get the flower from Alice on the Alice in Wonderland ride. Not successful. Apparently that one doesn't come out. Good to know.

(look at that pure angst on my little brother's face)

(this may or may not be the most romantic Disneyland picture you'll ever see)

Anyway, because we got through most of the rides by four or five, we left relatively early. We grabbed carne asada fries from Alertos on the way back and also got stuff to bake Chris a cake. Mia and I did a lot of the work on it and I think we should give up and of our past career goals and open a bakery.





Actually, despite the unappealing exterior, it was very good and Chris enjoyed it.



I was going to combine this with other stuff, but I've got pictures to sort through and probably should do some OCI research tonight.
