LA Revisited

Imagine that.  We hadn't even been away for 3 months before we were back in LA.  No, we weren't craving the hustle and bustle of the busy city, it's nerve-wracking traffic, or even the beaches... Disneyland brought us back.  Cheryl and I had a small window of opportunity to sneak one last trip to the Magical Kingdom before our annual pass expired at the beginning of September.  So, with the car seat strapped in (you never know), we hit the road for one last SoCal road trip before Baby Shamlian arrives.

We just had to make a pit-stop at our old beach stomping grounds, Marina Del Rey.

Cheryl @ 34 weeks.  Looking good babe(s).

Getting to the park early has it's perks - like  getting to take a picture with Mickey.

 One of two reasons why we decided to take the trip: Star Tours (Now based on Star Wars)

The second reason:  The new Little Mermaid ride in California Adventures.

Colorful, Musical, and all together Awesome.

Hey there Ariel.

C'mon Eric, kiss the girl.

We were lucky enough to meet up with one of our favorite
married couples, Kenji and Liane.
A couple of wild animals joined us for dinner at the Rainforest Cafe.

One last look at the beautifully lit backdrop of
Paradise Pier before the World of Color show begins. 

Shout-out to Chris Alexander for his generosity nearly a year ago with some 6-day park hopper passes.  If it wasn't for you bro, Cheryl and I would have missed out on so many wonderful memories during our Season of Happiness.
