Holiday in the sun

Here's a few (of the many) photos from our family trip to the States.
Realizing it's the first time I'm posting photos of myself, my husband and my daughter....

Welcome, again...


My husband Mischa


Circus Circus! My favorite casino entrance....


Getting ready for the first road trip


My daughter Ambrosia and my husband pose for the camera at Red Rock


Love


Hoover Dam


I'm so scared of heights! -can you tell?




Pumkin Pie Shake!!! I could drink this every day! ..and I did...


Krispy Kremes! I could eat these every day! ..and I did...


LA palms


Happy hubby


Sipping Vanilla Coke at Johnny Rockets


At Universal Studios I met my favorite monster!! He seemed to like me too.... (lucky my jelly shoes matched his skin..)


Ambrosia made a zombie-friend


Walt, Mickey, Ambrosia and I...
People thought I worked in Disneyland, they kept asking me if I was Cinderella?! With a strawhat? Come-on... Some even thought I was Dorothy! I know it was close to Halloween but I wasn't in a costume! My husband and daughter were quite amused and it didn't get better the following days outside Disneyland -even though I wore my (to me) normal summer clothes people still asked me if I worked there -or they just stared, commented on my hair, make up and outfits -one lady at a sushi restaurant even encouraged me to make an application to work at Disneyland! Hmm -if I was younger I just might have...

Daughter and Mickey balloon


Visiting Snow White.. Don't know why I look so serious...
I love that dress I bought it from this lady... (I shortened it and used the excess fabric to take it out at the bust..) and one of my favorite summer hats -my 30's open top (perfect for hair buns..) strawhat with black velvet trim and two big velvet bows!!
Perfect for Disneyland! (maybe a bit too perfect..)

Sunshine and chocolate caramel popcorn...


Der Wienerschnitzel. Love their corndogs... and cherry limeade...


Vincent Price's star... My daughters flip flops and my wedges...

I posted a photo of Betty's star last time and I ment to get pictures of Gene Kelly's, Cyd Charisse's and Fred Astaire's too but I forgot where they were and my family was hungry and didn't feel like walking 'round to find them... And I had already bored them by buying a pair of (amazing) shoes at the Remix Vintage shop!!! -maybe next time...

  1. Lovely pictures! Jack In The Box shakes and Krispy Kremes, oh the calories. I think last time I looked up one of their shakes online, it has enough calories for all day long. They are so good though!!

  3. looks like you had a fun trip! I've lived in CA most of my life, so sometimes I forget how beautiful it is.

    ps: had to look closely to figure out who was the mother and who was the daughter ~ you two are practically twins!
