Welcome back to Disneyland George Kalogridis. We hope you enjoy
being the
new Resort President, but when can we have a new E-ticket for the Magic
Kingdom? At least we may get Starbucks. In other news there is
a visit to the Tokyo resort during a Typhoon, a jaunt to Oceanside's
Market night and a peek at Toy Story 3's new trailer. Have fun! -

The
Apple Hill Adventures of Alec (stitchon) and Melissa (MaleficentMel)
Stitchon writes..."Me and MaleficentMel
(who shall henceforth be referred to as Melissa) managed
to con our parents into letting us meet up and have a day of
fun at the relatively local family destination (read: tourist
trap) known as Apple Hill, California. Truly a day for the history
books, amirite? So me, Melissa, and my parents and siblings
set off in search of adventure and attempted to stuff ourselves
silly with as many apple-flavored sweetness-carriers as possible
while beating the notorious long line of eager tourists to the
catch."
