Hello world!
We are tired but happy after an action-packed, 11-hour visit in Disneyland and California Adventure Park! We had a great time with each other as well as several famous Disney characters, reaching from Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck to actors like Johnny Depp!! There was a premiere for his new movie "The Lone Ranger." Many of us got to see him walk by on the red carpet, and some of us waited for 3 hours just to see him and to take pictures. Sebastian even got an autograph! Thanks to special tickets we got to switch between the two parks whenever we wanted to and therefore got the most out of both of them. There was a lot to see! Highlights included the Space Mountain, the Cars Ride, the Indiana Jones Ride and the fireworks by the Disney Castle in the end. We all were amazed by the colorful and musically accompanied spectacle.
To be honest, the whole day was amazing! Disneyland is definitely NOT only for little kids but for everyone who still has not lost the inner child entirely. Due to lots of waiting and walking around, we got really tired but we still kept our enthusiasm all the way till the fantastic firework show. Unfortunately Kristy, a Belo staff member who had been helping everyone during the trip, had to leave today. Thank you Kristy for being there for us during this fun week! Tomorrow we'll all get to meet Laura who will take her spot. Now we have to get some sleep to be ready for another exciting day!

Hey this is Sebastian from Germany! I want to share my experience of meeting Johnny Depp since I was the only one from the trip who did. I was in the third row behind the red carpet and as people left I was able to get closer to where Johnny Depp would be. When he finally arrived (after waiting two hours) I was able to take close pictures of him. When he was about 20 meters away everyone was going crazy and when he came up near me I said "Hi Johnny." He replied with "Hey how are you doing?" And he signed an autograph for me! That was a once in a lifetime opportunity and for the first time in my life I was patient enough (standing still for over 3 hours) to get this experience!

Wow!!! I can't believe you got to meet Johnny Depp, Sebastian! Your patience and persistence paid off.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you all enjoyed Disneyland! I'm glad I got to ride a couple of rides before I had to catch my flight.
I hope you all find Yosemite to be breathtaking!
