Most magical place on earth!

First- $1.00 a diaper is a bargain when both little children decide to go potty more than they have in their entire life in one day!
Second- Michael brought his pedometer and it said he walked 20.8 miles at Disneyland
Third- When you plan to leave and take a break at lunch time then get a parking place right at the front in the morning you don't leave.

There are so many things I want to write about to tell you how incredible and magical our day was yesterday. The fireworks display for the 50th anniversary were worth the price of admission alone! All of us standing there together watching and listening to the music will be one of my most cherished memories! It was amazing.

Lydia, Thayne and I took off with her disabled pass and walked right on most of the rides. The cast members were so wonderful about letting us on right way. Of course we got "looks" of wonder from those people in line about what special piece of paper we had. Lydia's favorite ride was the tea cups at the Mad Hatter's tea party. She hated the dark rides like Peter Pan and Alice and Wonderland. One of the other top rides for her was It's a Small World. I am so impressed still that wood, paint, glitter and fabric in a most basic sense can still be so magical looking under low lights.
The older kids and Michael took off for more exciting rides like Splash Mountain. Which they rode 7 times!
Chaiya says she loved the little Go Go Gadget coaster and Space Mountain
Maliea did really well, got tired faster than the others and says she can't decide which was her favorite cause she loved them all
Quayde got bored in It's a Small World but loved the fast rides.
Michael's favorite was the new Buzz Lighter Astro one. It is totally interactive and you can shoot and control your car.
My fatal mistake was forgetting the sling for Thayne. My arms feel like paperroute arms again as he wanted to be held the whole day. I just balanced him on the 'fanny' pack I was wearing for most of the time.
We all really really enjoyed the Aladdin storyteller theatre and of course the best most awesome Tiki Room!

Best food deal: We got the turkey club sandwiches on Focciaca bread and could feed two people from one. Plus we got huge fruit containers for $3.75! Very impressed with the fact there were a lot of healthy food choices now including veggies and fruit around every corner.
The kids came back to the hotel last night to treats on the table with coloring books, pens, notebooks, cups etc.. I had purchased previously and set out right before I walked out the door.
But of course we had to buy the 50th anniversary ears with their names sewn on and the giant lollipops!
We need to play more I think . This was a great day!!!!!!!!
