Vacation 2001:
The Sian's Meet The Cepeda's In California

06/10, Sunday -- The six of us catch up to each other at the Hilton Homewood Suites where we will stay for the next 10 days. It was great to finally catch up and watch the boys play with each other. They hit it off right from the start, as if they was never time growing up apart.
06/11, Monday -- LegoLand is our choice to start our vacation, and it was a great decision! The boys had a blast with all that the park had to offer, and the grown ups had lots to do as well. This place is first class, with rides and activities for kids of all ages.
06/12, Tuesday -- Worn out from LegoLand the day before, we choose Universal Studios as our next destination. It allowed us to sit and watch, more than to romp after the two boys. Problem is, it was more a place for grownups than it was for kids. If it weren't for an arcade and a RugRats Live show, it would have been a complete bust for our 4 and 6-year old boys. oops.
06/13, Wednesday -- This day starts out different than all others on this trip: instead of a vacation destination as a first priority, the new Nintendo Game Boy Advance takes precedence! The two Dads arrived at the Target store across street from hotel in order to have a crack at the very limited number of units being sold. We got everything we wanted, blowing more than $250 on each kid!
The rest of the day is spent at Sea World, where we get to watch the Shamu Killer Whale show, and check out some sea animal exhibits. But, this place, like universal studios didn't have many rides or other activities for our kids. PT isn't too excited about sitting and watching shows, and Joshua also prefers rides and games that involve jumping, running and screaming.
Please note: There are many many more pictures and video from all the events, but there isn't enough time at the end of the day to get them all online. So, just be patient and watch for more content as time permits!
