I began my trip to California. I landed in L.A. Then I took a bus to Disney Land.When I got out of the bus I found the most beautiful hotel I have ever seen. It was the Grand Californian Hotel . I thought it was an easy pin to find so I asked if it was common. It wasn't, so I was really, really amazed. I got my room and took a nap. Then I went to go get some breakfast. When I was done we went to the gift shop to buy more pins, but before I bought any I turned in a coupon and got a free pin and a strap on thing to put my pins on. I bought the first pin I saw. It was Pluto's dog walking service. It was pricey so I picked that one for free with my strap on thing. The 2nd day I went on a lot of rides and then I used my allowance to buy two pins. It was "It's a Small World Ride" pin. That was the only pin they had because it was It's a Small World Gift Shop and it was shiny.
