Well, my vacation was much more exciting than I expected! You’ll never guess what was going on the first day we arrived at Disneyland…it was the Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End world premiere! We didn’t actually get to go to the premiere because the tickets were $1500 per person and sold out, my dad wouldn’t pay that much anyway! But we did see the red carpet event and that was incredible! We saw a ton of celebrities and characters from the movie, not to mention we were about two feet away from Johnny Depp! I got some really awesome video of him, but I don’t know how to post it, but I will post a freeze frame of it. We also saw Orlando Bloom! OH…MY…GOODNESS…*faints*…he is absolutely gorgeous! I would say he is just as cute, if not cuter, in real-life than in the movies! We tried to get a good picture of him, but the one we got is kind of blurry and just doesn’t do him justice. Well, I said I would post pictures, so here they are!

Yes, that is Orlando Bloom in the blue shirt, this picture doesn't do him near justice!

The one and only Johnny Depp! AKA Jack Sparrow!

This is Captain Barbossa and Jack (the monkey), who seemed less than enthused!
This is me, Cameron, and Delaine in front of California Adventure. Yes, I am the oldest...I promise!

This is me, Delaine, and Hannah on the teacups, one of Hannah's favorite rides!

This is Stephen with his birthday "volcano" at the Rainforest Cafe in the Downtown Disney district.
We also made a quick visit to the beach! This was Hannah and Stephen's first time at the beach, and they loved it!



So, there they are! I would have posted more, but I think that is plenty of pictures for now! If you want see more though, go to my brother's or sister's blog.
Oh, and I almost forgot! When we got home we went to see the very first showing of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, which was at eight o'clock on the evening of the 24th! It was very good, but incredibly sad too! I will not say anymore so I don't ruin it for everyone who hasn't already seen it! But if you haven't seen it....go see it!
I hope you all have a wonderful week!
Sparkles ; )

My computer is running slow, but between all three of you guys, I was able to see most of the pictures...
That is so cool that you got to be there for the "red carpet portion" of the premiere!! Close enough to all of the actors for pictures! Sounds like you had a blast!
We decided to wait until the crowds die down, and our busy schedules die down, before we see Pirates 3. I think I will like it though...
I see you even got an authentic pirate medallion!!
It's good to have you guys back!
Thomas
It sounds like you had a really awesome time!
I am going to see number 3 soon. hopefully.
Love the pics

Personally I have always thought Keira Knightley was cuter than Orlando Bloom; but that is just me.
Hopefully we will go and see the third movie soon.
Stephen is so cute! It looks like he had his work cut out for him eating the Volcano. Did certain other people offer to help him?
Glad you are having fun in CA, it is a nice state. (Here is a secret for you, Northern California is prettier!)
Later,

P.S. I want a monkey!!!!!!
My family and I saw the Pirates movie on Saturday, and I agree - it was sad. Sad but good. :-)
Yep, I'm glad Jordin won!!! and I can't wait for when Melinda releases an album!
Have a nice day!
