No one wants to see sappy home vids of a middle class family on vacation, but I knew this when I filmed these vids. If anyone likes fireworks, check out the following links. I tried to narrate and also prod my brother during the process. Humor aside, the fireworks where fantastic.
Enjoy.

A little background on the vids - My two sons are 5 and 8 years old and have never been on an airplane let alone to Disneyland. When Lisa and I had our taxes done this Febuary, we committed to a Disney vacation.

Fast forward to last Monday, we arrived in Burbank CA at 9:30 Am for our great Disney family vacation. Only problem was 3 of our bags didnt arive with us. When we got to the hotel in Anahiem we where without most of our clothing, all of our bathroom accessories etc. We rented a car( justified why I dont like Mustangs..might prove my point later) and purchased two days of clothing for four people while Southwest Airlines figured out what happened to our baggage.

Tuesday sucked. The lines at Disneyland required a 2 hour plus wait. We quickley figured out the Quick Pass. We were able to ride about 6 rides Tuesday. This required about 5 miles of walking and standing in line for 7 hours. Our feet where kiling us by the end of the day. We headed back to the hotel around 7:00 PM. The fireworks vids were shot at the end of our 2nd day. By then SW had found our bags and sent them to the hotel, the POS MUstang was returned and the good times began.

If you guys want to here more about our vacation or are interested in visiting Disneyland soon let me know and I will fill you in on the rest of the story and also add videos.

your vid camera did a pretty good job for adjusting to the light levels.

Lol, the random conversation is pretty entertaining too, all i know is that if you are going to try to out do that show in your front yard...I'm coming up to watch!

Lol. We dont outspend Disney, but we do have a good time in our hood every 4th. We always have block parties and spend a couple of grand at the local reservation. The last 4 years we have gotten ahold of 4" - 6" mortars. Our source had a 12" mortar last year. The thing looked like a basketball, we thought about it, but he wanted 600.00 per. Plus 12" steel pipe is hard to come by......maybe next year.
