Wow! What a crazy night. Usually I get so hung up on missing my workout the next morning that I don't enjoy these parties and end up leaving early so I can get to bed and run the next morning.  This time though I just told all my Co-workers I was going to skip running to have fun, and I'm glad I did.

Intel Booked out all of Disneyland last night just for the conference attendees, Food and drinks everywhere, not all but most of the good rides were open, and best of all there were no lines for anything.  Every ride we went on was just walk up and ride.  During the fireworks one of my Co-Workers and I decided to go on Indiana Jones instead of watch fireworks.  We were the only ones on the entire ride and they just let up keep going around and around without getting out of our seats.  And then, not only did they rent out the entire park at 11:00pm the Goo Goo Dolls played on stage right outside the entrance to It's a Small World.  I wasn't planning on staying for the whole concert but they are a really really good live band.  So anyway, I didn't get to bed until after 1:00, I can't even remember the last time I stayed up that late, and I didn't run.

Sounds like it was well worth missing a run for!! That sounds like so much fun!

Now THAT sounds like my kind of party! Unlimited rides and no waiting - private disneyland? Really cool.

Also I think the Goo Goo Dolls are an underrated band - they had some good hits!
