Taylor Beach Camping and Disney

11-15 Oct

After presenting 2 GSLC workshops at the UtSta conference in Layton, I flew to SoCal. Went to Disney that night by myself and then Saturday some with Mackensie. Had a lovely time.

Steve flew in Sunday morning. I went to the Samoan ward for sacrament before picking him up.
We had time to kill before we could check in to our hotel so we went to cafe Sevilla in Long Beach.
Everything was delicious! Including the paella!
I would definitely like to go there again
We went to Doheny Beach and hung out with the Freelands a little bit before checking into our hotel, which was just across the street. Here’s the view from our balcony.
We got upgraded to a suite because our room wasn’t ready as promised. A really nice suite with a patio and a balcony and a full tub and a separate living room.
The view at sunset!
I finally made it back over to the beach after a long nap and some icing
Steve’s uncle Dave was there with his partner Darren and Darren’s mother. It was really nice to hang out and have dinner.
On Monday, everyone hung out at the beach but I headed in to my place in Anaheim to work, swim, and go to physical therapy.
Tuesday…Disney! Me and Steve, Ken and Nora, Robin, Zay, and Darren, and the Freelands including Eileen. Jonah was not having pictures 😊
The person taking the photo took one before we were posed haha
We had several rides go down when we were in the line (including here at Rise of the Resistance)…
…but we were able to get some shorter times because of the scooter.
And we still made it on lots of things
And had great food! Smokejumpers for lunch…
Blue Bayou for dinner (and carnation cafe for breakfast!). It was a lovely day!
