The Countdown Begins

So, we (mostly me) have been getting overly excited about the upcoming Spring Break Hammond Extravaganza de California. As I was sitting in my Accounting Integration class recently, I found myself thinking about how awesome this trip is going to be, especially March 19th from 8:00 am until midnight. (Yes, I checked the times Disneyland was open that day. even.) Just so you are all aware and can cease being nervous about the uncertainties of rides being closed, I am happy to announce that only lame rides are closed that day. Also, I have outlined our itinerant destinations so we can hit every 'awesome awesome awesome' ride multiple times. Even.


Estimated Arrival at Disneyland: 6:52.
Estimated Time Waiting and almost dying of excitement: 1 hour 8 minutes
Estimated Excitement Factor of Brigette: Uncontrollable
Estimated Overall Experience: Priceless
Estimated Wait Times on All Rides: 8 hours 43 minutes (considering the sheer volume of rides we will be partaking in for 16 hours, this is a good figure) ;)

Top Five Destinations:

1. Le Piece de Resistance, aka the Indiana Jones Adventure Ride.

Generally, this ride has the longest wait time of all the awesome rides. Do you want to know why? Because it's AWESOME!

2. Space Mountain
3. Buzz Lightyear "Shoot 'em Up!" (Matt's terminology)
4. Splash Mountain
5. Thunder Mountain Railroad

Next Top Five: (Don't worry, I can keep going)

1. The Ultimate Awesome "Matt"erhorn
2. Pirates of the Caribbean
3. The Haunted Mansion
4. The Peter Pan Ride
5. The TEACUPS!!!

Are you overwhelmed yet? Don't worry, we will be partaking in delicious treats along the way.

Top Five Treats we HAVE to Eat:

1. Dole Pineapple Whips
2. Churros (at least 3 each)
3. Dole Pineapple Float
4. Ice Cream from that wonderful Main Street Location - Carnation
5. Dole Pineapple Juice

If this doesn't sound awesome, you need awesome lessons from Captain Awesome or a couple rounds on the Winnie the Pooh ride. Needless to say, I'm really looking forward to this trip, and not just because of the Awesome Beach House. But seriously, thank you Parentals for putting this all together! It will definitely give us a chance to chill-ax and get in touch with our inner child. We are so excited I don't even think we will have to rent kids to go to Disneyland. Now excuse me while I go back to my statistical projections on ride waits. Peace. Love. Disney.
