Back to life…back to reality
Honey, I’m home!
We had an amazing vacation this past week. I journaled through it on my family blog…you can check that out here.
But now…it’s back to the real world. A couple of funny observations during my trip. Californians have really thin blood. It was in the 70s on Wednesday and Thursday and I saw people in winter coats and scarves. We got into the elevator in our hotel with a mom and her two daughters and she was telling them they were crazy for going swimming because it was too cold.
I came home with a tan. 
However, I have a feeling I’m going to lose it soon. I think we left the sun in Southern California.
Another observation: When you spend a week in a surreal world, the strange doesn’t seem so strange anymore. We spent a week brushing shoulders with cartoon characters and seeing a fairy fly in the air and having a conversation with a sea turtle and watching fireworks and listening to silly music. On the way home we saw a cloud with lights moving around it. I don’t think that it registered that this wasn’t a normal thing to see in the sky. We later found out it was a spotlight from a casino, but before we realized that, it seemed perfectly normal for a cloud to have lights dancing across it.
I am so ready to go back. Josh and I have already agreed to go back for our 20th anniversary…just the two of us, for two weeks. Four days wasn’t enough to fully enjoy everything there.
So…who wants to go to Disneyland?
