The happiest place on earth?!





So nothing like leaving Christmas morning to go to the happiest place on earth?! Very suprising when there were no comments about the lack of presents under the tree. We had a grand time, but unlike Mike we never made it on the Nemo ride. We decided that it would have to be pretty incredible to stand in line for an hour and a half. (That's what it was when you got there as the park opened!) Aiden, Cole, and June got to train to be a Jedi, and June and Aiden danced with the princesses. Paige and Cole (and sometimes June-and Aiden when he was tall enough.) went on every rollercoaster there was. I kept having to explain that this was a theme park not an amusement park, and no they didn't have big coasters. They were very happy when June went with me and Aiden, because then they could use our tickets to double up on the fast passes. They are way more brave than me, and especially when I was a kid. We went every night until the kids asked to go home (usually about 8pm after a 12 hour day) we figured if they no longer wanted to be at Disneyland then it was time to head out. Hope your Christmas was as happy as ours. (I'm pretty impressed I was able to do this all by myself!)

We didn't wait in line an hour and a half. We had early bird passes and got to the front got about 1/2 early. Then we headed directly for Nemo and had to wait in line there about 5 minutes. If you arrived at the early bird opening just as it opened your wait for Nemo was 1/2 hour to 1 hour depending on how fast you walked. During the day the wait was 2-3 hours. It was pretty neat, but it isn't worth an hour wait let alone a 3 hour wait.

Glad you had a great time.
