10 Experiences, 100 Discoveries: E1 – Disneyland

Albert Einstein said, “the only source of knowledge is experience.” With that in mind, as part of my adventure, 1 Year, 10 Projects, 100 Discoveries, ten of the discoveries are about experiences I’ve always wanted to have. This post is part of that project. You can see all 10 Experiences here and the entire project here. Enjoy the moments, I sure am!

Disneyland. Where the magic begins and dreams come true. Granted, living in Florida, I’ve been to Disney World many times, but I had never been to the West Coast version, Disneyland. Surprisingly, I dressed all wrong for Disneyland. I mean, I forgot to wear my princess dress and crown! It was a travesty. But, I did get to see Ariel, Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother, Tinkerbell, Minnie Mouse, Mickey, Pooh, Tigger, Donald Duck and Chip and Dale!

It was a magical and perfect day, ending in one of the best fireworks shows I have ever seen. No joke. Besides, who can beat a fireworks show where Tinkerbell actually flys through the sky?! I ate too much junk food, rode as many rides as could be packed into a day (favorites included Winnie the Pooh’s adventure and Buzz Lightyear), bought way too many mindless keepsakes and picked up an addiction to Vinylmation.

My advice to you? Go to Disneyland with a child that is still young enough to believe in Santa Claus. You’ll see the true magic of Disney through their eyes. I promise you, there will be no other experience quite like it.
