My Disneyland “Must Ride” List
Disneyland, the happiest place on earth—and most expensive. Well, maybe not most expensive. I’m sure we can all agree, though, the tickets, food and merchandise from Disneyland cost way too much. And yet, we buy all of it. What’s the reason? People don’t go for just the rides, they go for the experience. They sit down with their family and friends to watch the Pixar Play Parade and Fantasma. Personally, I’m more of a ride girl. My family and I don’t waste time watching firework shows and taking pictures with Mickey and the gang. We get as many Fast Passes as we can and hit all the best rides. Our record was 85 rides in four days, which includes our daily four hour naps. Since I’m so into the rides, I decided to make a list of five Disneyland rides that you won’t want to miss. Here it is, my Disneyland “Must Ride” list:

5 Great Things to Do in Santa Fe, NM
Santa Fe is a vibrant and truly historic city in northern New Mexico. Most people think of Native American pottery or silver and turquoise jewelry if they think of the City Different at all. Santa Fe is so much more than those things, though, with a history and culture all its own. Blending Spanish, Mexican, Native, and modern American ideas isn’t easy, but Santa Fe seems to do it easily.

Best Places to Visit to Experience the Great Lakes
1. Keweenaw Peninsula At the top of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, the Keweenaw sticks up into Lake Superior. The peninsula is characterized by mountains and cliffs, streams and waterfalls, and splendid views of Lake Superior. Along the shore of the lake, you can collect some interesting rocks, and at night, the clear air gives way to some amazing views of the stars. You will have very limited cell phone reception, but the nature should make up for it. Make your way from the Keweenaw Bay at the Southern end to the small town of Copper Harbor at the Northern tip. Enjoy the hiking and swimming and rock collecting and make sure you eat a pasty or two. Look to the Northwest on a clear day and see if you can spot the next location on the list, Isle Royale.
