Birthday Presents

For my 21st Brandon got me lots of different presents, including a trip to Universal Studios, California Adventure, and Disneyland. Over a month after my birthday we finally got through visiting all the theme parks. First we went to Universal Studios...

Do you know who those characters are?

Last weekend we went to California Adventure and Disneyland. Brandon's Uncle recently got a job at Disneyland so we got in for free! Saved $160. Yay! We went with his uncle Bom and cousin Jenna.

First we hit up California and Jenna got me a badge saying it was my birthday (well, I was going for my birthday I guess). Every worker we walked bye was greeting me happy birthday and I got a free bag of tortillas from the tortilla factory. Hells yeah!

We stayed at Disneyland until it closed at midnight. The fireworks were really cool, with Tinkerbell flying above us.

Our favourite ride was the Buzz Lightyear one where you have a gun and have to shoot targets on your way through. We kept going on it to try and beat our scores.

Going to the theme parks was an awesome birthday present. Even though I went to them last time I was in the States they have changed a lot. The backlot tour at Universal has Tokyo Drift and War of the Worlds now, Disneyland has revamped a lot of the rides, and California has got a lot of new things that werent there last time.
