Last week we went to Disneyland for two days and then on a cruise to Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico. My mom, Paige, Cody, Alexis, me, Kristie, Bryant, Tyler, Rachelle, Stacia, Cooper, JJ, Ashley, Carla, Adrian, Ruth, and Grandma all went. It was tons of fun! We flew , which was sooooo much better than driving. We talked Ruth into going on all the rides at Disneyland and Cali Adventure. After California Screamin, she screamed "that was awesome!" and raved about how fun the ride was for hours lol. She also swore really loud on Tower of Terror when the lights went out and the elevator doors closed. It was hilarious. l was surprised by how much she and my aunt Carla loved all the rides! When we got on the ship, we found that all the couples had rooms with bunk beds while all the single people were in rooms with twin beds that slid together to make a bigger bed. How ironic is that? I thought it was pretty funny. Catalina was pretty fun. Part of our group went parasailing and they loved it. I wanted to go, but there was no way I was forkin over $80 to do it!

In Ensenada we took a fun tour to La Bufadora. It's one of three blowholes in the world, and supposedly it is the largest of the three. I have now seen two--Mexico and Hawaii. At La Bufadora there was a really cool restaurant, Habana Banana, that was built like a tree house. I loved it. There were also tons of really fun little shops where we bought lots of fun stuff.

I was actually pretty brave (for me) at dinner on the ship. I never ordered anything weird myself, but I tasted everything that everybody else ordered. I know it's crazy, but I tried crap, lobster, and salmon for the first time! I also tried this yummy pumpkin soup that I wish I would have ordered because it was DELICIOUS!

There was a really fun piano bar on the ship and in the first video, we are singing along during Name That Tune--which we totally won! They gave us six trophies for winning lol. We sat in the bar and sang along for hours almost every night. We loved it, and the pianist was great! He called us Utah and remembered us every day.



The next video is a shaky recording of La Bufadora, the blow hole in Ensenada. I was trying to get one of the really high blows on camera, but I never succeeded so this is the best you're going to get!
