Not the happiest place on Earth







Melanie and I are on mini vacation. We went to California. Landed in Long Beach and are staying in Carson City. Today, Friday we went to Universal Studios. Now the last time we were there was 15 years ago. So you would think a lot would change. Well NO. In fact King Kong and Jaws haven't aged a bit. They both look great. That darn earth-quake still ruins the subway. How ever there is a very large airplane in the middle of a subdivision now (War of the Worlds).

So what is the draw? Is it the expensive admission price, the very hot weather, the pricy food, long lines, pushy people, crying kids, or I know the barely dressed people. What ever the draw people from all over the world still come and spend their money.

Now it may sound a little selfish that I am here without any other family members, but any one who wanted to come was invited. Jodi is going to Spain in one month, Matt and his friends are coming to Disneyland next week, Kim didn’t want to come. So here I am. We are having a nice time, but as far as Universal Studios goes, once every 15 years or even in a life time is enough.

I know what you mean about the barely dressed people...Disneyland is full of them! And you can't blame the heat, because if that were the case, Yuma would be a nudist colony!
