Field Trip - Disneyland

Things I learned at Disneyland.

Mallards are just as interesting when in a theme park, and more interesting than many of the "attractions":
How to wash ones hands:

don't most people learn how to wash their hands before they can read?

$6.50 kid-sized burritos are truly lilliputian:

portion fail

Girls can be silly:

Vending machines can be far too realistic:
It's possible for lawyers to ruin everything:
Cotton candy is good:

You can run into long-lost friends:

Stump and the grrls

Oh Happy Day

I've been fondling for the last hour it in ways that would likely get me arrested in most southern states. Or Utah.

Down On The Street

Yet another VW Doka, this one a bay window version, paired with a Karmann Ghia and found in an Oceanside neighborhood.
Lots of oil stains on the driveway and street. These old 'Dubs have certainly been marking their territory.

And A Cherry On Top

Now where's my frame? And 110mm stem?

More Bike Bits Arrive

Here's what Santa-In-A-Brown Suit delivered this morning:

Easton EC90 stem, SRAM PC1091R chain and Force front derailleur. It's all coming together, I'm just waiting on two more shipments before the fun of building up the dream machine can commence.

UPDATE: And I goofed up and ordered too long of a stem. Damn. I should have followed the old saying - measure twice, order once. Or something like that.

Down On The Street

Hey look - yet another nice VW Splittie spotted in North County.
This one is a quite rare double cab truck (aka "DoKa"). In nicer shape than this one.
Sitting near the trailhead at Elfin Forest. "Jesus beams" an extra photographic touch. That's what I get for shooting directly into the sun.
Me likey. I'd just replace the chrome hubcaps and front VW embelm with sage green painted versions.
