I grew up about 20 minutes from the original Disneyland park in Anaheim, California. As kids, we enjoyed going with our parents - I have heard that Sue and I particularly enjoyed the Dumbo ride ;)
In college, my roommates and I all got annual passes to Disneyland, which was one of the best ways to avoid homework and spend quality time with your best girlfriends. There were few corners or tricks of the park that we didn't know by heart. On Saturday nights, Kim and I would religiously head to Disneyland to swing dance at Carnation Plaza with a great group of people who ended up becoming close friends. We would watch the fireworks at 9:30pm, dance until 11, hit some rides until the park closed at midnight, and cap it off with hot chocolate on main street, which stayed open until 1am. These were very special days in my life. I haven't had an annual Disneyland pass since moving to DC in 2004. It's honestly been one of the things I missed the most about living in California (besides the fam, of course), and almost every time I visit home I make an excuse to go. But as of this Christmas, thanks to my awesome hubby, I am now again a Disneyland annual pass-holder (though obviously to the one in Paris)!!! I did consider blowing our dinner plans to head to the Park on Christmas afternoon, but I restrained myself a whole 24 hours to yesterday.
