Disneyland 2010, Day 1

This year we not only got to visit the Magic Kingdom for three days, but we stayed in the Disneyland Hotel for two nights as well! I haven't stayed in the hotel since I was about 7-years-old. Our first day was very full! We rode most of the rides in Fantasyland, explored Bug's Land in California Adventure, had breakfast with the princesses, ate lots of churros and ended the evening with the fireworks display. I LOVE visiting the Happiest Place on Earth!

In line for our first ride - Small World.
Pointing out her favorite dolls in Small World.
We had brunch at Ariel's Grotto and got to meet a lot of the princesses. Leila was so excited! Each princess stopped at our table for a picture and Leila got to chat with each of them uninterrupted.
The hostess: Ariel.

Leila's favorite princess is Cinderella. She was speechless when she came to our table. After a few minutes she finally started talking with Cinderella. Leila asked her if she was ready to go to the Glass Slipper Ball tonight.

Midday it got really HOT! We cooled off with the misters in a Bug's Land. We were dry in just minutes.

One of Leila's favorite rides this year - Tuck and Roll's Bumper Cars!

I think everyone in the family had to take a turn riding with Leila. Which means we probably rode these at least 5 times!

Getting ready to watch Playhouse Disney Live.

Just a few minutes before the doors opened for the Tiki Room.

We ended the day with the fireworks show. So fun!
The headboard of our bed had the castle engraved in it. Then at night, there was a switch that lit it up! It played "A Dream is Wish Your Heart Makes" too! I want one for our room at home!!! Chris just laughed...I was serious though!
