I'm Back!!

Hello Hello Hello!! I am fully rested & back from our much needed vacation to Orange County ... to the happiest place on earth of course!! DISNEYLAND

Both my husband & I LOVE all things Disney as I might have mentioned before. So it only makes sense for us to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary there. & WOW what a fantastic time we had!!

We stayed at the beautiful Disney's Grand Californian Hotel® & Spa. When my husband proposed to me 5 years ago our gift to each other was the Disney Vacation Club Membership. & it sure has paid off hefty. We love everything & all the perks that come along with it.

Here are a few pictures of our room & view during the day:





And a few pictures of our view at night:





The view of DCA was breath taking, but at night was when the magic happened. We never expected that they'd be testing for "Wonderful World Of Color" WOW what a special treat & amazing sneak peek!!

MEALS: while on Vacation we were pretty good with our meals. Not 100% but fairly on target. They did have the food & wine festival going on while we were there. We are not big drinkers, so no wine for us, but we did partake in the "Celebrity Chef" demonstrations and samples. We got to see allot of awesome known Food Network Stars like: Cat Cora, she's the first female American Iron Chef. Devin Alexander, author of The Biggest Loser Cookbooks and my local boy Jeffrey Saad, 'Next Food Network Star' Runner-Up.




& a bunch of other awesome chefs. Other than those sample splurges (which were fairly on the healthy side) we ate allot of fresh fruit.



Big juicy red and green apples.
WORKOUTS: Lots of walking, of course. We certainly took advantage of the gym & became overly excited when we saw that they had free wights.Booo yeah!! Here's how our days went down while we were on vacation: Up around 9AM, ate our instant oats and peanut butter on Ezekiel bread. Ran 3 miles on the treadmill and weight trained. Different muscles for different days of course. So what we realised was that YES it is certainly possible to workout while on vacation. You just have to do it. Oh and when we did hit up the gym we actually had to walk tru the Spa and sign in. It was a great feeling to see that we and 1 other person were working out. it was a big gym and just us, cause the other guy who did went at 6AM... NO THANK YOU.

Our next trip to DL will be in September and we'll be staying at Disney's Paradise Pier, out first time there,so excited. That's when we'll be running the Disneyland Half Marathon.

So here's my brake down for today: Monday 4/26/10 weighing in at 134 lbs
2 miles on the treadmill at 5.5
1 mile on the elliptical at 7.0
Biceps/Triceps
& my meals were 100%

xoxo,
Cerina
