If you get too exhausted from Disney, feel free to stop by my house and help with trimming the tree, washing the windows, cutting the lawn. THAT should teach you "cranky and tired."<br /><br />We've lived here for over six years and have been to Disney only once. Do tell me what it's like... ;-)Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-70613289380284449232013-12-10T15:24:42.679-05:002013-12-10T15:24:42.679-05:00Disney Land is fun with kids really small.

I don't make the kind of money needed to get those Season Passes either. I guess to each his own.

No Mickey Mouse ears are worth that, unless it's a life long time share he was talking about.<br /><br />Anyway, I've done Disney as a single adult with my (at the time) 60 year old parents; again with husband, my baby and toddler in a double stroller, and again when I'd had another kid.<br /><br />C H A L L E N G I N G<br /><br />But, I was determined to have fun! It's been 8 years; time to go back I guess. Maybe I'll see you and Mrs. C there. I'll recognize you by seeing a smiling, prancing woman, and a sweating, dragging man.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08180243708565855383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-90490946969072736002013-12-10T12:49:55.943-05:002013-12-10T12:49:55.943-05:00My condolences.

Ev...We live about 20 minutes away from Disneyland. Every year we would buy annual passes for everyone in our (very large) family. But now? We can't. They have raised the annual pass price to almost $300 per ticket. We used to pay just $129 per ticket. So with 12 in our family, it's just way out of budget now. Such a bummer, because we all really loved Disneyland. Especially in the month of December. The grounds are just so pretty with all the festive flowers and such. And when you have a pass it's not really stressful when the lines are long -- you just skip those rides and know you can get on them another day soon. The only time that I hate going to Disneyland is when we join up with another family. I can't stand being there with anyone other than my husband and my OWN kids! I hate waiting for other people to make up their minds about where to eat, which ride to ride, and bathroom breaks. I hate hearing other people's kids whine and complain. I simply have no patience for all that. With my family it's easy - we know where we are going, we know we won't be eating food in the park (paying outrageous prices - no way. We eat A LOT of food at home before we go! and my kids just know we won't be eating again until we get home. We bring granola bars and stuff like that in our backpacks to snack on, but no food is ever bought inside of Disneyland) and bathroom breaks are very quick and we all go at once. It's like, "Here's a bathroom that has no line. Get IN and GO! We won't be stopping again for a while." With a large family such as ours, you learn to eat and you learn to go to the bathroom on OUR schedule, not yours. Sounds harsh, I know...but it's the only way we can go places like this without it being a total pain in the butt. The kids are used to our ways, and we really do have a great time at Disneyland. Or... we DID...until they raised the darn prices to get into the place.

I told her a few years ago that from now on she can go to Disneyland without me. Only a grandchild could coerce me into returning.
