Well, I was up around 5:15 am this morning. I don't know why, but at home it would be 7:15 and that is normal. So, I got up, took my shower and got on MousePlanet to update yesterday. I woke up the kids around 6:15, because they said they wanted to do Magic Morning. No one wanted to get up. So, I left the room at 6:20 and headed to the park myself and just took pictures. I did manage to get that picture of the castle where no one is in front of it. I was pretty excited.
Then I called the kids around 7:15 or so and they got up. We went to get my PAP but all the computers were down. The girls decided they just wanted the Chocolate Chip muffins from the bakery and Josh and I went to Carnation Cafe to get Croissantwiches with fruit. The kids all made fun of me for wanting Oscar's autograph and for writing this stuff out, but that is ok with me because now I will always have it.
We hung out at Disneyland for a little while and the only ride that we got on was Winnie-the-Pooh. At 10:00 am the park was pretty packed. Splash Mountain was not working and Pirates had huge lines. The kids and I decided we would just rent a vehicle, go to the Character Warehouse and then Wal-mart to get food. We got to Character Warehouse and found Target easier so we went there and got breakfast items, water, sodas and a few snacks. Then I picked up Del Taco for DD#2 and DS. DD#1 and I had Mexican food last night, so we went to Carl's Jr. While at Carl's Jr, I got a call from my dad. He said that my brother now has lost 30% of his right lung. It is no longer functioning, and it never will. He could live like this for weeks, months, or years or he could pass away tomorrow. Dad has decided he will not take the chance to come to Disneyland because he would feel guilty for the rest of his life if my brother passed. Got back to the DL Hotel, got the kids to take the stuff upstairs to the room and dropped off the car.
DS is now swimming. The girls are just chilling in the room with me for now. I need to find out if they want to go back into the park tonight.
More later.
