I was soooo excited to be heading to Disneyland. Marie and I put our Hello Kitty ears and our Japan t-shirts on and we were on our way. We were like little kids very excited and full of beans. Steve just kept shaking his head at us. Disneyland looked exactly as I imagined it – just like a fairytale. There was the Mickey Mouse flowers, the castle and people everywhere. The amount of people was just unbelievable. We got into the grounds and were greeted by a band. 
We then got out our map and began our journey through the lands so that we could see as much of it as possible. Marie and I originally had 2 day passes but because the line ups were sooo huge we decided to change it to only a one day pass because the line ups were too frustrating to wait in and we didn’t want to spend 2 whole days waiting in lines. Some of the lines were 3 hours long. With this in mind we went on as many things as possible. The attractions that we got to see included: a Jugle Cruise, Big Thunder Mountain, Haunted Mansion, It’s a Small World, Alice’s Tea Party (the tea cup ride), Roger Rabits Cartoon Spin, Minnie’s House, Mickey’s House, Chip ‘n’ Dale’s Treehouse, Gadget’s Go Coaster, Donald’s Boat, Star Tours, Buzz Lightyear’s Astro Blasters and a Micro Adventure. My favourite rides were: Buzz Lightyear’s Astro Adventure, Roger Rabbits Cartoon Spin and Thunder Mountain. I also really enjoyed exploring Toontown. At night we got to watch Tokyo Disneyland Electrical Parade Dreamlights and Disney Magic in the Sky (a fireworks display). Both of these were spectacular!!
For dinner we went into the Queen Of Hearts Banquet Hall. This was a really well set out place. It looked very cool and funky. After dinner, Marie and I got to meet Mickey!! That was one of the highlights of the day! I bought a Tokyo Disney t-shirt and a little Mickey bag. Disneyland is definitely a lively, fun place – everything is cute and very kiddish. Most of the rides are themed and for kids so you have to bear that in mind when riding them. The long waits were annoying and tiring but we definitely got the most out of our day. We arrived at 8am and left at 10:30pm and got to see most things. I enjoyed seeing Disneyland and am glad that I got to experience it.

It sounds like you had a crazy yet wonderful day! I can't wait to get there myself!
You sound like a little kid seeing Santa for the first time! It was lots of fun though. The funniest part was watching you get excited and rushing to get to all the worlds and go on all the rides! We still didn't get to see Swiss Family Robinson. Maybe you can go on a special trip there just to see that! :-)
