Disneyland Rules!

Ah, Disneyland.

I had a total BLAST at Uncle Walt’s Magic Kingdom last week – it’s hard to put into words what a cool place this is. If you’ve never been, well why not? Pack your bags, grab your kids, make sure your ATM card is active, and get yourself down to Anaheim. Trust me – it’s worth it.

I told the Lovely Mrs. G that visiting Disneyland was “good for my soul”. That’s probably the best way to put it. To me, Disneyland and Disney’s California Adventure are therapeutic, relaxing, invigorating, and make your imagination dance.

This was my 11th trip to Disneyland over the last 42 years, and already I’m anxious for trip #12. When can we go? I’ve got my mouse ears on and my park pass ready to go.

I make no bones about my being an oversized 12 year old at heart with a deep love of All Things Disney. Why grow up when you can have so much fun as a kid? So Disneyland (and it’s Florida counterpart) will forever have a special place in my heart. I’d rather spend the day at Disneyland than at the Super Bowl, and I’d much rather sing the Haunted Mansion theme than sing-along at a Justin Timberlake concert. To each his own, I suppose, but Disney’s world of fun is just my spinning cup of tea.

So do yourself a favor – take the kids to the Happiest Place on Earth. Or just take yourself. You’ll be glad you did.
