Youth Zombied In Burbank Ca

Well, It's September and that means the annual Youth Alive Conference thingie in Burbank. Its two parts youth conference and one part excuse to go to a theme park! (And of course, the size differential of the parts is quite disparate depending on the individual) Anyways, I could spend hours describing all the awesomeness that transpired, but instead I give you.....

PICTURES!
(isn't this wonderful?! You don't have to read ALL those words!)

On the road to Burbank. Trips like this indelibly etch in my mind why I do not like driving.

I didn't want to take a picture inside the area we used for having church so you will have to make do with the lobby painting.

We arrive at the Park... (get it? the PARK!... Oh nevermind.)

It was raining lightly when we first arrived but it quickly dried up.

A picture is worth... let's see... one... two... four... three... 5 words!

First ride we rode!

I really love this ride and I am really happy with how the picture turned out! Due to the rain the sky was overcast most of the day. I love overcast skies!

While most of the bellhops lend themselves to overacting and just kind of dampen the experience, this guy was awesome! Definitely had that unsettling vibe goin on. His name is "Benny" and if you see him, tell him he's famous!

The Mark Twain is an iconic part of Disneyland and makes me appreciate how Disneyland holds onto the past and yet still moves forward. The past is never something to be forgotten.

Another Disney classic. Billy Hill and the Hillbillies!!! from left to right are: Billy, Billy, and Billy! (Not shown: Billy)

What trip to the land of Disney would be complete without Star Tours and Space Mountain! Keep an eye out for REBEL SPIES! They could be anyone! They could be related to you!

Sometimes, I wish life was in 3D.

This is me on space mountain ride cam... #epicpose

Now, I blame my gun for my score! (I really do think my gun had problems cause I was shooting this one target point blank and it was not lighting up. oh well, it was fun!)

You know, Yesterday had such a grand view of Tomorrow. What happened to that Today?

Finally, we had to say goodbye. It's said that the real magic trick is when night falls and the lights come on all over the park. Whatever it is, it looks amazing.

We stopped at Porto's in the morning before we headed back home.

It's always good to finally come home. "There's no place like home" (picture was taken at the Hollywood Tower Hotel.)
I must say, I had a great time the entire trip! Getting to meet new people and old friends. Spending time hanging out and having fun. I must say, this is a stark difference then what happened LAST year... We won't go into that.
