Hi, it's Melody with another Guest Blog. Today I am going to be talking about our Spring Break trip to Las Vegas/Hollywood. I just have to say, that was a really exciting trip. I listen to Radio Disney and whenever they play this one song that I can't remember, the first thing that I think of is the trip. Now, I do make fun of Daddy in this blog (sorry daddy!) because he did something really funny that I might explain at the end of the Blog. Here was our trip, that I actually wrote down in my journal on the trip and on the flight home (when I say, "crashed at hotel", I don't mean crashing into another car but crashing as in taking it easy for the rest of the day at the hotel):

Okay, this is where I make fun of Daddy!!! He will probably tell you about it...
-Daddy accidentally kissed a male Dora
Okay....to clarify: we were walking down the sidewalk on Las Vegas Blvd, The Strip, and there were crazy people everywhere. Most were drunk, many weren't wearing very much clothing, it was very inappropriate to have a 10 year old on the streets of Las Vegas, and there "she" was.... Dora the Explorer (a 5-foot tall Dora costume with someone inside)! She motioned to me to come over, so we walked over to "her". "She" pointed to her cheek, and I thought she wanted a smooch, so I kissed her on the cheek. At that moment, I heard a male voice come out of the head of Dora asking me if I was a Pittsburgh Pirates fan. I was wearing a Pirates jersey, so, of course, "she" would assume I was a Pirates fan. Once I got over the shock of it being a male in the suit, "she" explained that "she" had just come out to Vegas last month from Pittsburgh, where "she" grew up. At least "she" didn't notice that I kissed "her"! I was mortified.... Okay, back to Melody's blog.
