    It'll probably be December before we make it back again after March unless we get the 'bug' REAL bad before then. ;-)

    I lost count of how many times I went during the 50th.

I know I must sound like a total goof and Disneyland nerd but quite frankly, I'm proud to be a nerd and a goof about Disneyland.

    Very casual, and includes a group ride on Small World Holiday for those who want to join in.

I have convinced my mom and little brother to come along in June and am going to WDW for the first time in about 10 years with my DD and her big sister in August. My dad came along with us last year and if anyone in my family has the Disney bug too it is him. His job limits him from coming along with us more than he does though.

    When we moved to Anaheim a couple years back we'd go maybe once a week but maybe only to eat at Storyteller's or somewhere, not necessarily go in the park... Although the short time I worked there, SeanYoda would be hitting the parks quite often taking in the fireworks or a parade..

    Now that we're living in LA, we've been to DLR maybe 3 times this year.

    As far as explaining it to our immediate or extended family we've given up. They don't understand and insist we're stuck in a rut. Done with hearing, "It's for KIDS [or those with]!"

    1 1/2 miles away - Got any spare rooms I can rent for the year. If I lived that close I could make my dream come true. That is to go to Disneyland every single day of one calendar year. Even if some days were only for an hour or two. You need to go more than 40 or 50 times considering it's walking distance away.
