Okay, maybe Insta-Saturday this week! These last few weeks have been incredible and a little crazy, but we have had a great time in California. Here is some of the fun things from our trip so far.

Sea World San Diego

We started out in San Diego and visited Sea World and the San Diego Zoo. Both girls love animals so those were definitely a hit! Olivia learned the word, whale, and Hannah impressed the Sea World educational staff with her knowledge of whales and dolphins. We did a mini unit on both before we left on our trip. I don’t have any pictures on my phone from the zoo so I will post those later.

After a few days in San Diego, we headed north to the Disneyland Resort. We are here for our annual Off to Neverland Travel company meeting with our staff and agents. We look forward to this every year! Not only do we get to spend time at one of the Disney Parks, but we get spend time with our OTN family. They are all crazy, Disney fans who love it just as much as we do!

Disneyland Frozen Meet and Greet

Hannah was so excited to meet Anna and Elsa from the new Disney movie, Frozen.

Hannah is so excited that her cousin is here, too!

Disney California Adventure

We love Stitch! He is always so fun to visit!

We are wrapping up meetings today with a dinner at Carthay Circle and Disney California Adventure’s nighttime show, World of Color. This morning, we rented out Cars Land just for our agents. We got to go in before the park opened and ride the ride, Radiator Springs Racers as much as we wanted for 45 minutes. Hannah rode seven times without getting off with her Aunt Jennifer and cousin Kayden! She was just a little excited!

Cars Land

Olivia is not tall enough to ride Radiator Springs Racers, but she loved having Cars Land to herself so she could run around exploring.

Both girls are sound asleep now after the excitement of the morning and the early wake-up call to head to Cars Land. Olivia never naps this well at home! (And, yes, she has to have all of those stuffed animals to sleep with!)
