Friday, I went to Disneyland and California Adventure with my family to celebrate my sister's birthday (which is today). Happy Birthday! Since it was a weekday, the lines were relatively short. We were able to get onto most of the rides with little wait. The only ride that had a long wait was obviously the new Finding Nemo submarine ride. Even though they said the wait was going to be 80 minutes, it only took about 45. It was a very cute and entertaining ride, however I'm not sure I'd wait in line for that long to see it again. Overall, Disneyland was again fun this year, and I can't complain when I came home with a bunch of Disneyland gifts :D Thanks, Mom! Haha...Yesterday, B and I attended the Mercedes-Benz C Drive event. It's basically promotion for the new 2008 C-Class line of cars. We sort of expected to be like the Taste Of Lexus we attended last year, but better.
Unfortunately, with high expectations we were extremely disappointed. There wasn't much food besides cheese, crackers, and fruit, and the place was pretty small. The line to test drive the cars was really long, and we didn't even get to test drive on a course as advertised. Apparently, the course was open for Saturday but for some reason closed on Sunday, a detail they failed to tell the attendees who waited in the hot sun anticipating those s-turns. I got to drive the C350 sport, but since we only got to drive around the block in residential areas, I didn't get to feel the real power of the vehicle. I got to stop and go at stop lights and stop signs. And if I had wanted to drive a different model, I'd have to wait in that long line again.The +'s:
- free Lip Treatment samples from Kinerase
- free shampoo/conditioner and hair wax samples from Redken
- free Quikee samples from Supersmile
- all the Fiji water you can drink
- the cool integration of RFID for registration
Oh well. I think I like Lexus' more anyway. Lexus 1, Mercedes 0.
