Serious chauffeur,

serious about our destination.

All right, what's happening here is that I found out my family was going to Disneyland last Tuesday, I got jealous (and curious), so I flew out for the occasion. Little weekend getaway in the middle of the week, that's all.

If you've seen any of my previous Disney posts, you know they can get verbose. Where are all the words in this post? Trust me . . . some words are coming. Not today, not tomorrow, but someday, there will be words.

I was very keen on checking out Star Tours one more time before it closes for much needed renovations and updating.

Something like 23 years ago I waited in line 2 hrs. TWICE to ride this thing. This trip, I waited in line for 5 minutes twice. Things done changed.

Ellie wanted to ride with me on Autopia. She picked me! Of all the people, she picked me!

I drove, she jabbered. Great times.

We had the most spastic Jungle Cruise guide. So much yelling!

You know what? The Matterhorn is just the best. And I think there's more Abominable Snowmen in it now. That's the feeling I get, or has there always been more than one?

There's Emily.

Rachel was the bravest of her siblings, but, as you can see from her unwillingness to permanecer sentado, the bobsleds were a bit much for her.

I think it was really the real Kermit. That's the feeling you can't help but get. Did you know I went to see him get his star in Hollywood in 2003? I did.

Did you know now there's cameos from other Disney characters in Small World now? Made the ride fun, keeping a key eye for all of them. Here's just a few:
