Forty

Forty. Four zero. Closing in on half a century. That's how long Suzanne and I have been married. A long time. So, to celebrate our anniversary, we of course, went to Disneyland. Wahoo!

We watched Bug's Life.

Suzanne ordered a giant breakfast pizza and then ate three pieces. (We put the rest in a locker for later. That evening, we threw it away before it made anyone sick.)

We watched the Mad Hatter lead a dance.

...and I had to ride California Screaming.

Suzanne took a picture of me with Mickey Mouse ears, sort of.

 We rode Star Tours.......

And Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Since it was our fortieth anniversary, we had to go to Mickey's movie barn and take a picture with the Big Man himself.

 We had a Pineapple Whip at the Enchanted Tiki Room.

 This is actually quite a unique photo. It contains both ships and three canoes in the same shot. Harder to get than you might think.

 We found Billy Hill dressed as a (really ugly) heroine.

We rode the train which had engine trouble. They broke a 'D' ring which connected the timing rod to the piston. It made a lot of clunking, they rocked the train back and forth, before finally having us all get off and walk back to the (Tomorrowland) station.

We watched the cheerleader parade.

I took this picture to show the two giant pinwheels that appeared above each side of the castle. They were huge!

We found the new tribute to the Sherman Brothers. Of course you know that they wrote many of the famous Disney songs including It's a Small World. The door says, 'We'll write your tunes, for a song.' Richard Sherman, RIP.
