Feeling the magic

Did you know that the Blue Bayou Restaurant gives you dessert in the shape of a pirate ship and treasure box? And it's all edible - even the mast?

Did you know that even the parking attendants at Disneyland are incredibly competant and friendly?

Did you know that Ivy drives like Mr. Toad? She showed us today on Autotopia. :)

Did you know Eli was so excited this morning to go to Disneyland that he actually ran laps in the hotel room?

Did you know that by the time we had been in Disneyland for a couple hours, we'd spent an average of a dollar a minute?

Did you know that "mouse-ka-totally" is my new favorite catch phrase?

Did you know that it's not a great idea to play "Look-alike" in long lines when you might run into the daughter of the very person you were just about to call out as a look-alike? What is that? Karma? Fate? Bad luck? Are we the only family that plays this game? You know, "Look, it's Bill Clinton!" and then you all surreptitiously look at the Bill Clinton look-alike two rows in front of you and then giggle. Subtlety is the name of the game.

Did you know that we're pretty cheap, because we took a picture of our purchase-able Space Mountain picture with Adam's cell phone.

Did you know that there's no need to be unproductive in a long line: Matt was continually doing bar dips and pullups from every ledge and bar possible!

Did you that Adam scored 288,000 in the Astro Blaster game?? It didn't hurt that the ride stalled 3 or 4 times...

And finally, did you know that singing "Yo-Ho-Ho-Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me" at the top of your lungs in the dark Pirates of the Carribean Cave with your whole family is about the best thing imaginable? Yep, it is. :)
