Disneyland! What a place! What a day! It is so good.

But I'm exhausted and tomorrow is another big day...

Disney castle
The Disneyland castle

[Disneyland is very big, and it's impossible to see and do everything in one day, so we went two days in a row. I forget exactly what we did on what day.]

It's a Small World
Characters on the outside of "It's a Small World"

[Some of the things we did: Rode the Space Mountain roller coaster. Star Tours. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad roller coaster. The Submarine Voyage ride. Splash Mountain. The Mad Hatter's Tea Party ride (where you sit inside giant teacups and spin around). The Matterhorn aerial cable car ride. It's a Small World.]

Teacups ride
Me riding the teacups of the Mad Tea Party

[We saw a big parade down Main Street, with Disney characters. A fireworks show in the evening. One of the days, for lunch we ate in the Blue Bayou Restaurant, which is inside an artificial evening setting that looks out over water onto part of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. The original version, before they made the films and modified the ride to include references to the films.]

Mark Twain Riverboat
The Mark Twain riverboat

[I'm sure we did a lot of other stuff too, that I now can't remember precisely.]
