Disneyland on a Hot Day
In stark contrast to our cold and rainy visit to Seaworld, Disneyland (and Anaheim) is scorching hot, even in the 70’s
Seen at Main Place Santa Ana
Seen at Main Place in Santa Ana: JC Penney, the (cutely evil) Puppy Store, Justice, Tupac, tons o’kicks, and a banana dessert.
Seahorses at Sea Life
Took a quick spin through Sea Life which neighbors Legoland. Pretty small compared to Seaworld, but admission was only $10 (upgraded Legoland ticket).
Good place for young kids with enough to see at a slower pace. Reminds me of Sea Life Park in Hawaii.
Nothing too exotic in their aquatic collection, but seahorses are always fun.
The Price of Seasonal Weather
55 degree weather, 60% chance of rain. 30 minutes of driving, $12 for parking. $22 for an umbrella, $8 for a Shamu rain poncho. Two hours of rain followed by hours of sunshine looking at penguins, sharks, mantas, flamingos, Elmo, fish, polar bears, belluga whales, sea lions, a walrus, and a night show with killer whales.
The price of seasonal weather.
Nap Break at Seaworld
Taking a nap break in the shade in the Seaworld parking lot. Had to keep driving in circles until the kids fell asleep.
The rain that was here in the morning is long gone…
Socal Severe Weather Warnings
Uh oh, according to The Weather Channel iApp, there are two severe weather warnings for Socal on Sunday. High winds, cold weather, and possibility of snow (at high altitude)!
In iPhone and the Cloud I Trust
For an upcoming trip, I won’t have access to a computer which is a rarity. Instead, I’ll be relying on my iPhone with data stored in “the cloud.” The AT&T 3G network will be my access to the cloud.
I’ll be using the iPhone’s GPS along with Google Maps for directions. I hope to be blogging while on travel and will be using the WordPress iPhone app for that. I might also integrate my Twitter account with Pulpconnection via Twitter Tools so any tweet becomes a blog entry. Unfortunately, blogged pictures will be taken with the iPhone camera which ain’t the greatest. Better pictures will have to wait until later.
I haven’t completely tricked out my iPhone with geo/location or travel apps, but I have added some useful ones like this Disney park guide. Anyone have any recommendations for useful travel iPhone apps?
