Reagan Library Part II

In order to get to the Disney exhibit last week, we had to walk through the entire Reagan display, whether we liked it or not.  We had mixed reactions to that.  One thing I learned from this exhibit is that Reagan really liked jelly beans.  Like a lot.  They were all over the place--in the Oval Office, in Air Force One, in the gift shop for sale.  Also, it was pretty cool seeing Air Force One, even though we weren't allowed to take pictures inside of it.


Upon arriving, you are greeted by this statue.

Poor horse with no legs! 

And now for those who requested it (mostly my mom), what I was wearing!  We did not get a choice of how we posed in this one, but I snuck in a half Kevin.

D23 Presents Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives at the Reagan Library

Last weekend, a group of friends and I went to a Disney exhibit at the Ronald Reagan Library.  It was a pretty cool exhibit.  We also walked through the display of Reagan's life.  Not that we really had a choice--we had to go through it to get to the Disney stuff.  However, I think I will save those pictures for another post.
