What a beautiful night!

On Tuesday night, I took a "short trip" to Disneyland and met up for a little bit with Nora and Papa Tom. This is the two of them waiting in line to see the "World of Color" show. Don't they look happy? It was a fun night!

Keep up the good work boys!

There are some who when they see this photo are a little irritated when they see the crane in the shot past the train station. But to me when I saw this, it seems that Walt is giving his blessing to all the construction that is happening in California Adventure. You can just hear him with his excited voice saying, Keep up the good work boys!

Disneyland at 54

This year has gone by quickly and I wanted to be sure to post some pictures from when Nicki and I visited the park last year for Disneyland's 54th Birthday on July 17, 2009.

It was a hot day and that kept the crowds down for a while

and so we spent a lot of time just taking pictures of things that caught our eye

The Matterhorn peeking out between buildings

Mickey flag on the train station

Someone lost their head in Adventureland

A castle squirrel

Nicki in the Firehouse
and a little Firehouse music

This one and the next one are inside the Emporium

It was so hot Nicki and I both bought hats

Resting

Inside Fantasyland

We were sitting down again and saw this sign, but it was to far away to read. So I took a picture of it and read it from the camera. The sign is in the next picture I think

Also in this picture there are two crows on the side of the Matterhorn. If you can't see them look at the next picture and those two little black spots are them.

Resting again and enjoying the view all around us

Happy Birthday Disneyland

We're going to Disneyland!

I just love this photo. A Papa taking his kids to the Park as early as he can get there and they kept up with him. Of course, they got him back for the early morning when they wanted to stay til closing. All in all a full day of memories and Fun.

"What's This?"

I thought I'd taken some photos of the "World of Color" that we saw in the sky over Disneyland on Monday, but all I have are videos! Boohoo! So I'll have to find something else to post a blog about from our trip. Hmmm... let's see. I'll play a game instead!

How did ya do?

What a photographer!

So what's wrong with this photo? Nothing! Ben is capturing a photo of his sister standing next to him while waiting for the Columbia to come. It looks so great to see his photographer face on, but the camera facing in the"wrong direction"

The Happiest place....look at all the smiles

Yep the escalator is fun!

Smiling at the "World"

Seated smiles.

Walking in to the park.
It looks like we are "in step" at the moment.
Smile!
