Avery's Big Summer Adventure: Part 2, Meeting "The Mouse"

After the wedding extravaganza, we drove south along the coastline where I fell asleep and woke up to a world I had never been to before, except for in my very best dreams!  There were castles, princesses, fun storytelling rides, and actual walking/talking lifelike characters right from all of my favorite storybooks!!  When I asked Mommy and Daddy where were we, all they said was "Disneyland!!!".  Here are just a few of the best moments from our never-ending visit ...

Mommy and Avery at the start of 
our Disney adventure

Here's a video clip of how I felt upon entering the gates of the iconic castle ...


Our very first ride was a flying Dumbo, 
just like in his storybook ....

... Mommy buckled us up for safety ...

.... and away we go!!!

Here's a video of all of us on Dumbo (even Daddy rode too).  And yes, we went on this ride many many many times ...

 
Next up was the Alice in Wonderland ride ... 
does it look like I enjoyed it???

And here's a video of us riding on Heimlich the Worm (from "A Bug's Life") while he eats a big lunch ...


Avery making beautiful music

Avery trying to see straight after 
finishing the Tea Cups ride

Here's a video of us in a Yellow Submarine ride (which was really really awesome) ...


Avery taking a brief, but well deserved, nap
after tons and tons and tons of more rides!!!

Avery driving us around Disneyland 
after we were all so tired of walking all day

Here's a video of Avery's "great" driving skills ...


Avery and Daddy taking a car ride to Goofy's house ...



... where Goofy was actually at home and 
we even got to chat for awhile!!!

Avery trying to see Pluto in person, 
but no luck, he wasn't home ...

... so Avery bought (thanks to Auntie Sherry) 
a Pluto hat instead!!!

 
The next house visit was to the main character 
of the kingdom ... the big head honcho ...

... and what luck, Mickey Mouse was home and took time 
out of his busy schedule just to say "Hi" to me!!!

Thanks Mommy and Daddy ... this vacation was totally awesome!!!  Watch for Part III of Avery's Big Summer Adventure coming soon, where we took a well needed break from our vacation and just relaxed on the beach ...

I need a nap after seeing you on all those rides! Good thing your daddy was along to record all your great adventures.
