Disneyland Birthday Party! May 15-20

1. I spent 3 days in Disneyland with my two younger sisters and my aunt. They all have April birthdays and so we called it our Birthday Celebration. We had a great time! Each day one of them wore the official Disneyland "It's my birthday today" badge and we designated that as their birthday. We were able to ride all of the rides we love more than once and do all that we wanted to do. Some highlights include:

*eating lunch at the Blue Bayou restaurant and sitting as close to the water as is possible. We waved at the the passengers of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride as they went past. The food was quite good, but it was really all about the embience.

*The Fountain of Love: a drinking fountain near the castle that we dubbed the Fountain of Love and made sure we drank from each day. I filled my water bottle there. I'm hoping for results....

*The Pineapple Freeze!

*Captain Jack: We found him in the French Quarter, near the Pirates ride and had quite a long conversation with him.

*Space Mountain: a roller coaster ride in the dark! You gotta love it.

*Indiana Jones: which was closed for maintenance the first 2 days we were there but opened the 3rd day. We were able to go on it twice and sit in the front both times.

The rest of the world could take a few lessons on customer service from Disneyland. Everyone is so nice and helpful, they really made us feel like princesses and we came home tired and happy each night.
