Disneyland....again!!!!

Since we got annual passes to Disneyland, we decided to go to the happiest place on earth again.
We were not disappointed. We saw two parades, one in which we were on the front row, and Rylee refused to make eye contact with any of the characters, and screamed at one that approached her. The second parade was a water parade, which was extra exciting because the heat and humidity here is almost unbearable. The only downfall...all the chinese people and their umbrellas blocked most of the water from falling on us.

We got fast passes for Magic Mountain so we took turns watching the babies and riding the ride...it was awesome, except for the two chinese girls behind Tish and Stef who laughed at the picture of Tish at the end of the ride.

The interesting thing about the workers at Disneyland is they all have nametags of the American names they have chosen for themselves. We have met people like Kinki, YoYo, Map, Circle, Ice, and Pinki just to name a few.

One of the best rides at Disneyland was a 3D musical. The chinese seem to have no spacial awareness and we were all packed into a little area waiting for the doors to open. Once they opened, the madness began. People were pushing, not even slowing down for the old people. Tish had to literally push a woman out of Dan's chair. After the mayhem settled...the movie was really cool and Rylee watched the whole thing with her 3D glasses.

One last note, people here are very interested in Rylee and Jade, the babies being a mix and all. They are always talking to them and touching to them. One lady even took a picture of her son with Rylee...this would all be ok if Rylee didn't have a people phobia. Jade on the other hand never fails to impress and socialize with the Chinese.

Love your blog to keep us informed of the fun things you are doing!
I can just imagine those two cute little girls being the center of attention. Doesn't matter what country they are in - people are drawn to them!!!
