[Cadaverous Pallor]

Yesterday, I had lots of fun. I went to DISNEYLAND!

It was just the way I remember it as a kid. Everything looks freshly painted. There are no burned out lightbulbs and all the stuff on the rides works. The music is clear and catchy, from It's a Small World to Splash Mountain. The people that work there seemed just as happy to be there as we were!

There was a wonderful new parade for 2005 filled with characters and costumes and special effects and beautifully detailed floats. I waved to everyone with a big smile on my face. There was a new fireworks show too, filled with surprises and state of the art effects. We were laughing and pointing and totally entranced from beginning to end.

There were a couple of closed rides - I was bummed I couldn't get to ride Space Mountain - but once that opens up, watch out!

I enjoyed my day so much that I bought a few things on Main Street. I'll remember this day forever!

Everyone needs to go to Disneyland. It's the happiest place on earth, and it's BACK!
