Up early for a swim!
Hello families and friends!
First thing we did was get up at 7am! We went to breakfast, and were the first people to eat! Then we headed to the pool to enjoy the water and the hot tub. We then hurried up to get ready and get on the bus.
We did an "anti-rain dance" to make sure we had good weather for the day at the park (and it worked)! Then we had a party in the bus while we were on the way to Disneyland! Carleigh actually danced for us, even though she hates dancing! just kidding- she loves it!
We were so excited to be at the park and have good weather! We took a tram to get to the entrance of the park and then we got our surprise of the day! The other exchange students doing another trip were at the park as well! We all got to hang out and enjoy the day together! Everybody loved us at the park today!
We got in line for Space Mountain and enjoyed the conversations with many people interested in where we are from and what brings us to California. One person was even a school friend of Angelia Jolie! We thought that was pretty cool. Space Mountain was such a fun ride! We all met up together to ride it together! We were very loud :) The Hollywood Tower of Terror was another one of our favorites! You sit down in an elevator type ride and got lifted up like 15 stories and then drop! There were so many rides we all rode on! The list could go forever!
Of course at Disneyland they want us to spend our money there, but one of us had a little difficulty trying to get the perfect sweat shirt! I saw it and fell in love, but at every single shop they did not have my size :( They tried to make the "little German girls dream come true" but they did not find her size.
We all met up at 6 to get a group picture! The picture was taken right in front of the castle! It was hilarious! Everyone was looking at us and we were doing the "wave" and cheering for ourselves! Later we were able to watch the fire works show that was done with the castle as a backdrop! They did an amazing job at the show! Tinker bell flew across the sky and colorful fireworks were set to music to make a beautiful show for all to see!
Awesome day! We were all amazed at how nice people were and interested they were in us and our exchange year! It was a great last day to spend in Los Angeles. Of course it is a dream come true! Everyone loves Disney! The characters are all the same across the world, like back home, so you kind of feel "at home" when at Disneyland!

Hi everyone,
ReplyDeletecongratulations for your blog and thanks for keeping us well informed!!
It's cool to read and watch the photos, it's a bit like being there with you whereas for you the positive thing about it is that we aren't!
And it's great to hear that people are so nice and interested in you!
No matter if you don't meet another celebrity before you leave L.A. - Angelina Jolie's schoolfriend is enough :)
Keep having such a wonderful time both in the rain and in the sunshine!!
