Disneyland! And Valentine's!

Hello, Dear Blogosphere!

The time has come for a Disneyland report. I had a long to-do list, and Sean and I got most of it accomplished! Here's what we did...


Space Mountain (Our longest wait - 50 minutes)


Mad Tea Party (Sean's first time! He spun like crazy)


Mouse Ear Hats! (Our souvenir of the trip)
Mr Toad's Wild Ride (Sean's first time!)
Village Haus for dinner (We were starving - we had pastrami burgers, and mine was on a gluten-free bun!)
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Jungle Cruise (Sean's first time, and he couldn't hear the puns! We'll return...)
Pirates of the Caribbean
Mint Julep and Beignets (One of my favorite Disney treats! I made Sean enjoy beignets for me)
Haunted Mansion
Splash Mountain
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (We got on the ride in about 5 minutes!)
Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters
Autopia
Shopping at Small World (Got a few things for Daphne's first birthday)
Pineapple whip float! (Delicious)
Star Tours (AWESOME)

Sorry for the lack of photos! It got dark pretty early plus when you only have 8 hours in the Happiest Place on Earth, there's no time to stop for photos! Anyway, I am very impressed with what we did in the time allotted. Next time, we'll definitely have to ride Matterhorn and Small World (both closed this time) and eat turkey legs (the stands closed too early). I must also note that it was actually hot in Anaheim. Low 80's!

On our way home we stopped at Cafe Rio in Tustin. The most delicious food AND Disneyland in the same twenty-four hours?! With my amazing boyfriend! A girl doesn't get any happier.


...or does she? Yesterday evening, Sean played a series of tricks on me which ended with him handing me a little blue box. :-) We are just terrible at waiting for actual holidays to exchange gifts...

L-O-V-E. Pretty much stunning. I love how modern and simple it is, while still being completely romantic. Perfect.

Happy Valentine's Day to me! And to you! Valentine's isn't just for lovers, but for friends and family too. Here's a joke for you...

What did one pickle say to the other pickle?

"You mean a great dill to me!"

It's true! Happy Valentine's Day, friends!
