What a dream....we had such a good time!!!!!
Disneyland is wonderful!!!! The shows were great! The rides fantastic! We went to huntington beach one day too.

Our travel pkg. came with a full buffet breakfast every morning.. We had made to order omlettes and waffles etc etc.... plus the most wonderful fruit and fresh squeezed OJ (by the jug!). In Canada our fruit season hasn't begun yet!
We fueled up for the day, so with granola bars and water we didn't need to eat till dinner.
After our first dinner (where we learned about DL sized potions!!!!) my Dd and I would spilt a dinner and Dh and Ds would split a dinner and littlest would get a kids meal.......and that was plenty.

We recieved some wonderful service....tipped accordingly....bought a few souveneers and still brought home $100 spending money!

The children brought along there own spending money (it was great for the little stuff and kept their spending down to a small amount).

Oh.....it was so much fun....

Great...couldn't wait for you to get back....so tell me which was your favorite ride? Did you see Fantasmic? Were the crowds crazy? I'm so glad that you had a great time. It is really the Happiest Place on Earth!!!! Give us Details!!!

My favorite ride was California Soarin, I went on it about 5 times.
My older two loved Space mountain and Splash mountain and Star tours and and and and (My 14 yr old said it is too hard to choose one favorite). My youngest favourite was Soarin and Jungle Cruise etc etc
We saw Fantasmic, Electric light parade, Aladin, Parade of dreams, fireworks and Billy Hill and the Hillbillies in the go;den horseshoe.
It was very busy but with a combo of an early start and fast passes we had very few long line-ups and the children got to ride their favourites many times.
When things became too hot and crowded (the afternoons) the children spent hours exploring Tom Sawyers Island or Redwood creek. Or we went and watched shows.

It was everything the children ever dreamed of and more.
I even had enough time to relish the details....the landscaping ....the perfect touches. We had dole whips in the tiki room. While the older two were riding Space mountain we would take our 8 yr. old for icecream at the oldfashioned icecream parlor and feel like we just walked into the twenties..... she also met All the princesses and head her pictures taken with them and she had made alittle blue beaded bracelet for Cinderella and a pink one for sleeping beauty. Her favourite princesses. They were so happy to recieve a gift!!!!
Of course we didn't want to leave.

Oh my gosh, I haven't been there in so long I think the only ride name I recognize is Space Mountain! How fun for you, I would love to go back someday!
