Highlights from yesterday include
- lying down on the pavement in front of the castle, the day's heat radiating through my tired muscles, counting the few remaining LA stars while waiting for the fireworks
- the fireworks, really much better than any 4th of july
- the parade, specifically the acrobats on the lion king float
- a meal at the restaurant on the porch that the pirates of the carribean ride goes beneath. I must describe
- crab cakes with mango avocado salsa and endive
- gorgeous sourdough bread
- unlimited iced tea
- portabello mushroom stack with couscous and scallop potatoes, all with a balsamic butter type sauce
- a chocolate chip cookie with no line and surprisingly yummy especially when eaten in air conditioning
- splash mountain, deciding to close my eyes after all
- not needing dinner
- not being able to stay awake for supposed grownup time after 9pm
- another long 10 hours of sleep

This morning, the three Ps, pack, pool, plane. It will be nice to get back into our house and see what the renters left for us.
