Disney Diaries

[forever_wandering]

Hello hello!

I woke up at 4am today to drop my friend off at the airport and despite taking a nap until just a bit ago, I'm still feeling exhausted. Unfortunately, I don't have time to rest since I still have some things I need to prepare for. M-san* arrives in a couple of days, and tomorrow I'm going to a Holi festival in the city. By the end of this month, I am sure I will be a walking Zombie. Yes, definitely. 

Anyway. Disney. My friend and I went to three of the five Disney parks and had a blast! In the end, we did end up changing out clothes, but we had tons of fun wearing our little outfits for most of the day. Surprisingly, I got a lot of compliments and even met some Japanese tourists who were surprised to learn that I could understand every word they said about us as they stood behind us =D. 

Interesting happenings? We asked a man to take our picture. He did. Then he went on to talk about how we had made his day because even though he had 7 grandchildren he was there alone, He kissed us each and went on his way. After that, we went to stand in line for a roller coaster. Suddenly, a man approaches us and gives us fast passes to the ride. We went from a waiting line of 45 minutes to a waiting line of 5. Lucky lucky! =D 

I spent $25.00 total at the park, buying bottles of water and omiyage for my family. Pretty good, right? I think so! I'm looking forward to going again! 

Amazingly, I was really good about uploading all my pictures on time! So people who have me on FB can already see all the pictures I took. =)

You are very cute on your pictures, bb.
This story with this old man is adorable and also sad.
Anyway, I am glad that you had such a great time there :D

Thanks so much =)

Yeah! I found it so sad! My friend couldn't understand why I felt sad by it but I mean...what kind of kids wouldn't want to spend time with their grandfather? And at Disney, of all places!!

Aww I'm glad you had a nice time!!! I want to go to disneyland!

[kurikuribebi]

It really does bring out the kid in you, which everyone occasionally needs.

Zia, it looks like you had so much fun! I love what you said about the grandfather you met; though it's sad he was there alone, it's great that you were able to make his day. :) And fast passes! You're so lucky!

I'm glad you and your friend had an amazing time. And on a more shallow note: You look great! I love your polka dot dress, and your hair, too!

Yea =) We like to think of the fast passes as karma. We made someone happy, so someone made us happy! We can't think of a better reason. Fast passes are expensive...so to just up and give them away...rare.

Thanks so so much! Lately, I've been feeling insecure for some reason >.<

Looks like you had fun. Will have to check out more of your photos on facebook. Did you go to the waterpark? I wanted to go to that one so bad when I was there... years and years ago, but my step-siblings were too young so we didn't x_x

[kurikuribebi]

We couldn't fit the water park in to our plans. It is on my list of things to do though. I didn't even know Disney had a water park until I went with my friend. And apparently, there is some kind of sports park now too!

It looks like a lot of fun! I'm so jealous! I've always wanted to go to Disney World and my friends and I were talking about doing a road trip from New York to Florida but it fell through because not enough people could do it :(

[kurikuribebi]

New York to Florida is a good drive. We drove from Florida to NY once and watching the scenery change was amazing. Unfortunately though, with gas prices...flying is so much cheaper.

I've always wanted to do that b/c I've never been to the south! Yeah, I bet and all the ~southern foods mmmm lol
yeah it really is :( we would've each had to pay over something like $1900+ just for 5 days so eeeh
