Space Mountain ROCKS!!

Although it is a 'picture of a picture', it is pretty clear that the group above (including yours truly) is having a heck of a good time. Enter a new addition to the unemployment club...Hooky Thursday!

Jonathan, Eric and I have been talking about going to Disneyland since they both decided to move back to California...yesterday seemed to be the right day to do it. Holly had the day off from school and then Briana wanted to go to, so after her first 4 classes of the day (the more academic ones versus PE, lunch, etc.) we pulled her out of school and headed for Anaheim.

Here comes the 'Hooky' part. Meeting us at the Mouse were Gabe, Elizabeth, Craig, Bettina, David and Rachel plus Rachel's friend Brittany...all admitted 'Hooky Thursday' participants! We did not all move en-masse through the park, but did take an opportunity to meet up in front of Pirates and have a random stranger snap a group photo...I will post some of the most entertaining versions when I am back at the computer and can upload.

Besides starting a new activity day, we had another milestone...Briana's first ride on Space Mountain. She was a bit unwilling at first, but we really gave her little choice. There was much angst going through the line and even getting on the ride, but once it was over the verdict was, 'that was pretty fun'.

Try SUPER fun - we ended up riding it 3 times! We got expert enough to know when the photo was coming and pose for it!!! Everyone needs a fun Hooky Thursday every now and again!
