Some of you may be wondering when my family will be jetting off to Disneyland again! Well, this past week, they did just that. I, on the other hand, made my way over to the "Penny and Aaron Pet Spa of Treats, Belly Rubs and Couch Snoozes" - all things sorely missing from my regular life at home.
Dad and Madeleine are welcomed by Walt and Mickey to the Happiest Place on Earth!
You may be checking your calendar right now. Don't worry, it is still only early November. That said, in Disneyland, Christmas is in full swing.
After 6 trips in 9 years, my parents know a thing or two about how to have a successful visit to the Disneyland Resort. Their number one rule for success is...
Would you like a hint?
What do you think it is?
Do you think you know?
Just one last hint...
The answer: Bring four grandparents! A supply of extra arms, patience and souvenir treat buying are key! And most gratefully welcomed!Madeleine has no fear on rides - if she was tall enough, she rode it. Big Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain (in the front seat), Hollywood Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, the Matterhorn - she rode them all with a subdued silence. No embarrassing shrieks for her. At the end, she commented, "That was great." Lucky for her, she got to ride most of them multiple times due to the rider switch passes. On ride photos to be shared at a later date.
I would be remiss to mention that this was Miss Mirabellie's first visit to Disneyland conscious.
Here she is in March 2011 at 7 weeks old:
Here she is in November 2012 at 21 months old:
She may not be as pleased when her Mama makes her sit in this bed when she is 16.
Mirabelle was happy to see characters at a distance and gave many a kind wave and smile, but up close, she had a favourite = Alice is #1!
Like her sister, she loved the rides.
At Disneyland, Madeleine was sure to say hello and give a hug to her favourite characters.
Woody
Sally and Jack Skellington
Fairy Godmother and Cinderella
Minnie Mouse
Well, in closing, there are still 400+ more photos to share at another point, but I am sure you don't want me to delay the release of this video, so enjoy!
