The next day I went with some friends to the OK GO concert at the Red Rock Resort. They were letting teachers in for free! They were really good, although a little loud. Just to be different, they did one song where all 4 band members played the hand bells and sang, and
they were actually very talented!
The last day of school for the kiddos was June 2nd. I somehow got conned into going on the senior grad nite trip to Disneyland. It wasn't too bad. All the rowdy kids wound up on the other bus. We spent the first 3 hours at California Adventure, which was pretty fun. I'd never been there before.
We actually got to go on all the rides and the lines weren't too bad. There was a really cool Toy Story ride - they give you 3-D glasses and you have to shoot targets on a screen while riding around. It was pretty cool, even if my friend Joe did get the higher score.
At about 11:30 the move all the kids over to Disneyland. It was crazy crowded and loud. We got to go on a few rides, but mostly the lines were really long. I did find my dream hat, but couldn't bring myself to buy it.
Joe was very excited to get his picture next to club 33 - it's the only place in Disneyland where they sell alcohol. You have to have a membership which is somewhere around $30 thousand a year and the waiting list is like 7 years long!
We stayed until 6 am, but by 4:30 all the chaperones were ready to drop. The floor of the Opera House was covered with sleeping teachers, including Joe, Elena and I all cuddled together in a corner. We made it back, but I can't say I really remember much from the next few days because I was so tired.Tomorrow is graduation for Del Sol, so I have to work, but then I have the whole summer off! I love being a teacher! (Sometimes!)

Looks like you had fun. I haven't experienced the new areas of Disneyland either.
