Originally Posted By GMLSKIS Of course I'm addicted to Disneyland, any smart person would be. It is the happiest place on Earth. LIving 210 miles away and hating L.A. traffic with a passion I always would only make 1 trip a year and only go 1 or 2 days. Now because of the 50th anniversary and the incredible fireworks show and a season pass I have made 3 trips and 13 days in the 2 parks. Before the pass expires I will make 2 more trips and add another 6 - 8 days. If I lived within 20 miles of Disneyland I would go almost every day.

What I love about it, and what's so special for me, is that it's the one place in the world you go where all of your cares are gone. You really are taken away to another place. A nicer, peaceful place. I feel like a kid everytime I go. The castle is still as big to me now as an adult as it was when I was a kid. The only thing I regret is that my kids missed the Disneyland sign. Seeing that always got my heart pumping!

It is a stretch of nothingness going on the 15..... my Dad who lives in Vegas makes the drive often, and gets there in about 3 hours all the time..........

I dont know what it is, but we LOVE it...and if I have to tell someone I am at the movies when I am really at Disneyland then so be it!! ahahahaha, now all I gotta do is find a boyfriend that loves Disneyland as much as me and I'll be all set! Ahahahaha
