Day 2 - Disneyland
Today we went to Disneyland! It opens early so we went straight in. Mummy accidently walked through the monorail gates when it wasn't open! The first thing we did was make Gerard line up for fast passes in a line bigger than any queue while we had breakfast! We went to a bakery called Sweethearts Cafe where Mum had a per danish and a banana Mickey muffin. I had a chocolate croissant and a chocolate Mickey muffin! The popper straws here are really cooland extend.
After brekky we went on Pirates of the Carribean where I made 150 yen for spotting 3 Jack Sparrows. We went on all the cool fun rides but my favourite part of teh day was the parades. The daytime one was glorious. There were costumes of every colour and glitter everywhere! It was truly the most enchanting sight I have ever seen. All the characters were in it and the dancers were excellent. The night time parade had at least a trillion lights and the most beautiful graceful dancers and amazing costumes. I felt like magic was swirling around me and swallowing away all my worries. My cheeks hurt afterwards from grinning so much.
We had lunch at the Queen of Hearts and I had grilled swordfish, vegies, rice and a slice of delicious chocolate cake. For dinner we went to the Blue Bayou which is in the Pirates ride. Originally I had shrimp and chicken gumbo but I traded with Mum and ended up with delicious veal. It tasted just lovely. Sadly the fireworks wer cancelled because of wind.
Oh and 2 more things it costs $200 for a rockmelon here and I kept my hands up on the drop on Splash Mountain - I am so proud. Also I bought a Pirates necklace.
