I went to Disneyland in the middle of August. I am still in disbelief. My dear friend Leela told me (in May) that her family was coming form all parts of the world and wanted to have a Disneyland adventure. She wanted me to come and I would do anything in the world for her. I had met most of the family on her Sunday Zoom meetings and was excited to get to meet them in person.
Disneyland is expensive. It is painfully crowded in the summer and killer hot. I have not been in a very long time. But to Disneyland I went....and I had the best time ever.
Yes it was painfully crowded in this time fo Covid but everyone was exceptionally well behaved. No pushing, no nasty comments. Just happiness mixed with a lot of patience. It was hot...absolutely. But there was water and air conditioning here and there..so manageable. Leela's family are the nicest people I have ever met. We had so much fun together I felt as if I had known them forever. We hit all the rides, took all the picture and ate all the food. We saw the Mainstreet Electrical Parade ( which they keep threatening to discontinue forever but always bring it back). We saw the magical fireworks and I experienced the gleeful, child excitement with two outstanding young lads who made sure I was not scared on any of the rides.
When I got home that night (well after midnight) I was hot, tired, weaty, a bit dirty and totally blissful.
I won't miss any opportunities to do fun things. Life is too short to nitpick the details. I am just going to throw myself in and enjoy the rides....all of them
