I'm Going to Disneyland!

Today was a big day for me -- and my parents. I skipped school and headed down to Anaheim for my first visit to Disneyland.
Before I talk about all the fun I had, I want to give a proper shout-out to Robert B. Sherman, who passed away today. Coincidentally, I was introduced to his music today during my Disneyland trip. If you don't recognize his name, all I have to say to you is: "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!" And, I will add, "It's a small world, after all." Well done, Sir. Well done. And thank you.

And now here's a recap of how I spent the day. I met Minnie Mouse, who happened to be standing out on her front porch when we were walking by. She's a sweet girl and took time out for a photo with me.

My very first ride at the park, for those of you who are keeping track of such things, was Dumbo, the Flying Elephant. I loved it. I also went on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride (scary) and It's a Small World (awesome).

We met up with Aunt Bearbs, who is also a big fan of Disneyland. She and I rode the horses on the carousel and talked politics, while Mom made sure I didn't fall off. I chose Doubloon, the horse with the gold tooth, which allegedly was Walt Disney's wife's favorite. I must say, that's my favorite horse, too.

Later, I competed against my dad in a 3-D arcade shooting game over in California Adventure, where we also watched Muppetvision 3-D and rode on the Silver Zephyr. (I have no comment regarding who won the arcade game.)

Back at Disneyland, I checked out Winnie-the-Pooh's ride and the Haunted Mansion. And I finished the day with a dinner of churros and chocolate ice cream. Well done, Me.
