OK, part of this is my fault, but I don't know about the rest.
I made a split second decision to go to DLR today, to mainly ride Monsters (soo cute!) and see Fantasmic. (I hadn't realized how long it had been since I had seen it, plus my kids, believe it or not, had not seen it.)
So, I left San Diego about 4pm..I know, stupid me, rush hour. But, I was shocked at how fast I got up there.
Then, I hit Jeffrey Rd., I know from there, it is only about 10 minutes. (I don't know why that is my marker, but it is.) Right there, at Jeffrey, I hit bumper to bumper. All up until I hit Disney Way. I was soo peeved that the traffic was nothing at Disney way. (I know that is my fault, I should have left earlier.) But, what should have taken 10 minutes, took one hour!
So, on the way back, I hit bumper to bumper again, at 11:30pm! They are shutting down all lanes but 2 to do construction. It was a headache and a half.
Now, this is what makes it all ironic. I ALWAYS get stuck in this sort of bad traffic, either going or coming to/ from Disneyland. One night, there was a HUGE crash, and they did the same thing, only they shut all lanes down but one. It was bad, and didn't end up getting home til about 2:30am, I left the park at 9pm.
Am I just jinxed, or has anyone else had these types of problems over and over again? (Especially so late at night.)
