I forgotten to post this but I had an amazing time at California! We finally gotten to go to the Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood, Disney Land, Disney California Adventure, and The San Diego Zoo! It honestly healed my inner child after what I’ve been through last year. And if you’re wondering, yes I met Oswald twice because I gotten his autograph the second time. He even gave me a kiss on the cheek…🥹 He’s such a sweet Bun Bun…😭💖 (Please don’t tell DK, he would get easily jealous…🤣)
y'all i'm so fucking jealous of universal hollywood rn this house looks fucking AMAZING, the energy from the scare actors is just Peak, gods why didn't we get this at orlando too?!
Ooooh, boy. This has been an announcement I have been dying to share for almost a year now, and I think this is the perfect time to make it because I'm not joking when I say this:
I'M GOING TO LAS VEGAS AND CALIFORNIA FOR THE FIRST TIME!
Okay, so there is a funny story on how that happened. One day during the spring last year, Mom was looking at dates for us to go see Garth Brooks in concert again and saw that he currently has concert residency in Las Vegas. Despite the initial debate on whether we should go or not considering the huge distance between there and our home, she ultimately bought the tickets for it because we've never been to Vegas before. And that's just only the beginning. lol
Later that same year, during the summer, Mom and I were running errands and talking about our upcoming trip to Vegas. She mentioned how this was gonna be the closest she'll be to California; it's her birth state and the last time she was there was a few decades ago, so she couldn't not go visit there again. Not even a second later, I simply replied, "✨Disneyland~.✨" Pizazz and all. XD She immediately said that she didn't even think of that at all, which had me laughing, and it quickly led to our trip becoming full-fledged family vacation plans. The planning was a gradual process because at the time, we were more focused on our second Orlando vacation in September and me staying with my older sister in Milwaukee from late December to mid-January while Mom was in London and Paris. With all of that out of the way, we've been finalizing our Las Vegas and California plans for the past few months; now, I can officially say we'll be on vacation from Apr. 24 to May 4.
I still cannot believe this is actually happening! I never thought I would end up going to the other side of the country for anything. And lemme tell you, there are a number of things I am already looking forward to checking out: the sights of Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, going to Toontown and Super Nintendo World, possibly visiting Mom's birth town! I am super excited!
Had to kinda push just a bit to get my group to go to the Waterworld show, I saw it way back when I was in high-school in the 90’s and is still one of the best live action stunt shows ever IMO.
It’s just they’re acting while moving between being down on the water, under the water, in the air, on the upper level of the structure, etc.
Then there are the vehicles they have to maneuver in a pretty small pool with all the equipment in the water for the effects, and you add in the fighting, falls, pyrotechnics, and a full sized plane crashing and its just amazing how almost effortless they make it look.
