A few glitches....

We arrived in Long Beach Thursday the 5th and found that our reservation was incorrect and the room that we had was just a regular room with two double beds!  Tight fit for six people, but we did it! 

Friday, we headed to Universal Studios. Mark's mom,  Marge, came along with us.  We had purchased our tickets ahead of time,  for what I considered an obscene amount of money, and everyone was excited to go.  We entered the gates and we were off and running...until we got to the board that gave wait times and most were over 45 minutes, with the ones that we really wanted to ride at 85 minutes!  As we stood there trying to figure out what to do and tensions rising...we just said "screw it, let's get in line".  They didn't lie, it was 85 minutes!  We went on the studio tour, which was really interesting, and when we were done, the kids said, "That was so worth it!"  So, I guess in the end, that is all that matters.




Waiting in line....
