August Vacation, Day 2: Disney Post Script

Okay.

So, we got back from Disneyland kind of late (well after midnight when we pulled off the freeway in Tarzana).

Naturally, the kiddies fell asleep on the way home. When we arrived back and Grandma Liz's place, Nate and Jake woke up just fine and we were able to coax them into the house to go to bed. Were unable to revive Cameron though, no matter what. We got him out of the car and onto the front steps, at which point he went down on his knees, dropping his forehead onto the ground (apparently, that's a comfortable position to sleep in). Then, we managed to get him inside the house and he promptly dropped back to the same position (at which point we took the picture).

Eventually, we were able to coax him into bed. According to Nate, the next morning he awoke in the same position.

August Vacation, Day 2: Disney

Woke up bright and early on Tuesday morning and ate breakfast on the way to Disneyland.

We arrived when the park opened (at 8AM) and kept going for most of the day. A fun time was had by all.

Everyone was exhausted by the time we went home (we stayed until 11)...understandable considering it was a fifteen hour day at the theme park, packed with activities from start to finish.





August Vacation, Day 1: Beach

After splitting our trip to California into two days (lay-over in Kanab with Kaye and Frank), we went to Zuma beach.

It has been too long since I played in the waves and spent as much time as possible in the breakers body surfing. Great fun! Jake and Cam had fun digging on the beach; Nate dared the waves quite a bit.

Sharon, after getting caught up in the surf (she claims I tried to use her as a surfboard!) relaxed on the beach and read.

(first pic was taken by me, the second by Nate; ergo absences from respective images).
