Disneyland Gets a New Monorail
The first of the new Mark VII trains arrived at Disneyland last week. There is also a name change to the Disneyland Resort Line. The new trains have a new seating arrangement (chairs in the center that face out like the submarines) and a sleek/retro design.
You'll notice that the Mark VII trains are, in concept, a modern update to the 1960's monorail system (without the bubble-top).
According to insiders, the new train won't be running until sometime in February, 2008.

Celebrity Sighting: John Barrowman
I first fell in love with John Barrowman in the Producers. How cool is it that he was on both of my planes from Seattle (to SFO and to LAX). He was in first class on the first flight and just a few rows behind me on the second. An incredible celebrity sighting.

Christmas in Seattle
I had a wonderful trip to Seattle and enjoyed visiting my brother's family in Port Townsend, extended relatives in Olympia, and my parent's home in Seattle. This picture is at the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks which we visited on Christmas Eve. Check out all of my pictures which includes a White Christmas in Seattle.

Celebrity Sighting: Keven Nealon
Today, as I returned from giving a presentation at the Annual California Financial Aid Conference in San Francisco, I saw Keven Nealon, from Saturday Night Live fame, and his wife. It's hard to go through LAX without spotting a celebrity. According to his website, he was returning from performing at Caroline's Comedy Club in New York as recently as last night.

Church and Disneyland
I went to church this morning and Max Lucado was the speaker. It was a great time at church. 10 minutes away is Disneyland where I met my friend Patrick for a fun day in the park. I finally went on the new Finding Nemo Submarine ride -- AWESOME! It was worth the 1.5 hour wait. See all of the photos!

Church, Amy Grant, the Gym
Today I went back to church for the first time in a LONG time. Back to the church that I have gone to at certain crossroads in my life. The Crystal Cathedral.
How totally cool is it that today's vocalist at church was one of my all-time favorite singers, Amy Grant. How fantastic to finally see her in person after all of these years. I was just a few rows from her so I was able to snap some great shots. She's 47 now and is married to Vince Gill. She said that the hardest lesson she has had to learn in life is to forgive herself. I've added her name to the celebrity sightings section of my blog. She looked GREAT!
Finally, I went back to the gym again after all of these years. It's just down the street from my house. I plan to go first thing in the morning. It felt good to get back into it. Brought back some old memories of going to the gym with Justin back in the day.
Check out some of my pictures of Church and Amy Grant.
