7-21-10 E is for Eliana!

Friends:

Soleil turned 20 years on July 21! Happy Birthday, Soleil!

7-21-10 S is for Soleil, the birthday princess!

On our second day, we went back to Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. We had to stop for this photo op!

7-21-10 Surfing USA!

We didn’t mean to match but we all happened to be wearing Soleil’s favorite color combo – hot pink and black, sans Dad, of course. We were cute! Next, we marveled at the super heroes in Marvel Super Heroes Island. Soleil was totally enamored with Spiderman!

7-21-10 Soleil and Spiderman!

We rode the Spiderman ride and that was incredible. It was part simulation, part actual ride, like The Forbidden Journey in Hogwarts Castle. There was one part of the ride that made my heart catapult out of my chest. Thank goodness Spidey’s web was there to save us from villains like Magneto…

7-21-10 Eliana, watch out! It's Magneto!

It was searing hot so Eliana decided to cool off in the water…

7-21-10 Eliana chills out under the cool water spout

Eliana and I ended up doing water rides while Soleil and Antonio did the big roller coaster like the Hulk. We ended up meeting back in Hogsmeade for another shopping trip at Honey Dukes and a round of butterbeer to toast Soleil’s Birthday. What a wonderful day!

7-21-10 Betty Boop, Eat Your Heart Out!

Until next time…

Warmly, Dianne
