Mickey, Goofy, Winnie & Co. || DISNEYLAND

Welcome to fabulous Disneyland!!! Here are some pictures we wanted to share with you. Hope you like them.

The line was incredibly long but we made it to Mickey Mouse!non-verbal.

Look how strong we are!!
.....And how weak I am :)
Winnie the Pooh - my favourite; he gave me kisses. I totally fell in love with him.
Mark Twain. We did not take a ride, but it looks so beautiful.
Buzz Lightyear was so fun. It looks like Amy won, but we reached the same level :). Well, but she probably won anyway.
Amy told me but I first did not recognize that I had to steer the car - I was moving like a snake.
Splash Mountain was the wettest experience. But it was definitely worth though!!!! Fortunately we had fast tickets, otherwise it would have taken for hours.. I love our faces.
Melissa and I after the Tiki Room. Tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki....I love this castle!
So we really stayed there from 9am to 9pm and and we are still alive. We had such a great time and I'm so lucky and happy that Amy could arrange that so spontaneously. I'm looking so forward to coming back next summer - hopefully.
