It’s been awhile since I’ve had a spring vacation. You know that you’ve gotten older when you refuse to go places during Spring Break because there’ll be too many people around celebrating Spring Break. Actually, it has been so long since I’ve been on a vacation during springtime that the last one I remember was one I took when I was still living in Phoenix.

What we did has not tell our six-year-old that it was Spring Break. We loaded up the car at night, and then, the next morning, did everything as usual and set off for school. Supposedly. We had been in the car for about half an hour when Sky realized we weren’t going to school. So we told him we were going to the beach, which is one of the many
things to do in Los Angeles. We got to the beach and had a fantastic time. Although I grew up on the Atlantic, it was my first time experiencing the Pacific Ocean, which is a whole different ballgame!

After the beach, we were tired, and went to the hotel. The next morning, we grabbed some donuts and headed down the street to…Disneyland! The expression on Sky’s face was just priceless. He’d had no idea that we had planned a trip to Disneyland. That is one of the really awesome things about that age–kids don’t know enough geography to ruin a surprise!

I definitely need to take more vacations, and that is probably true for a lot of people. Whether you are looking for
things to do in Las Vegas, or want to walk the hills of San Francisco, Trusted Tours & Attractions has
