Yep, we went meet Mickey Mouse!
Still taking in the surprise
Proof of a successful day at the park!
We took advantage of our strategic location in Long Beach, a mere 30 minute drive to Anaheim to surprise the boys with a daY at Disneyland! Jim and Anita generously loaned us their van, and ensured we had booster seats for both boys, and shared their local knowledge as long time Disneyland annual pass owners.
We had a wonderful time! We were there from opening to almost closing. The parade was cancelled due to rain, but it was good timing for us, we had two very tired boys.
Lars' favorite part was meeting Mickey Mouse and driving a car in Autopia. Odin loved driving a car in Autopia, the paddle wheeler ship Mark Twain, the steam train and Tarzan's treehouse. Tor and I most enjoyed watching Odin and Lars take it all in with delight. 5 1/2 is the perfect age to experience Disneyland! Best of all Odin was healthy and no 9 day hospital stay afterwards!!
Lars' reaction to the talking posts in The Tiki Room about summed it up "those talking posts are just magical!"
Next day we took on crew and sailed to Dana Point. Jim loves to sail and we had a great sail down, then Anita drive down to pick him up and we all enjoyed a lovely dinner together. It was a fantastic cap to our wonderful time in Long Beach.
