Disneyland Family Vacation 2011

Me and my husband were planning Disney vacation for our family. Our girls are 5 and 6 and didn't know where we were going. We weren't going to tell them until we got to the airport and just before we entered the plane. At the security check point, homeland security checks your passports and asks few questions. So, when they asked me where we were headed to I said whispering "California" and thankfully guys had wicked sense of humor and said to my girls, "so you guys are going to Saskachewan, eh?" It was so funny.

When we passed security and before we entered the plane, told girls that the surprise is that we are going to Disneyland and they were loud and screaming and telling everyone that would listen. They told this little girl in front of us that the plane is going to Disneyland and the little girls shot her parents mad look saying: "See, I told you we were going to Disneyland"... so I guess she was surprised too :)... Vacation was amazing. We got to our hotel and they told us "Welcome home" I wanted to cry.

Disney is so magical and it doesnt matter how old you are it captures you and little girl or boy from inside comes out to play. Sharing that trip with my girls and it was our very first time for all of us there, was even more magical. We took photos with Mickey and Minnie and had lunch with Princesses and breakfast with Minnie and her friends. Our favorite character had to be Goofy, we waited a long time to get photo with him and here it is :)
