After celebrating my birthday with Dan and my coworkers, Dan and I were off to celebrate 2 days at the Disney parks, with an overnight stay at Hotel Miracosta!<\/p>\n

We got a semi-early start and trained out. We arrived at the Tokyo Disney Visitors Center, where we got our park tickets and they took our overnight bags. Then we were off to Disney Sea!

We walked around and rode some rides, then went to check out the new expansion with a Toy Story ride opening in July. To our surprise, it was open for testing on that day only!<\/p>\n

So we waited 40 minutes to ride the new Toy Story ride. The queue was so cute!

I had a really great surprise- I ran into my coworker friend Christine and her husband!

We walked around with Christine and Jon Jay, and then parted ways because Dan had to run to the shopping center to get some dress pants for his dinner cruise the next day with his work. All his dress clothes are too big for him now! We got him pants and then decided to check out our hotel room to watch Fantasmic.

When the park closed, Dan and I went out for a drink then called it a night. We enjoyed this awesome view before bed

\nOne more awesome thing about our hotel: they provided pajamas!

The next morning Dan and I went for a quick swim, since we never get to go swimming! Then we headed out to Disneyland!

We spent the day doing the last scavenger hunt for the year. This is me spinning us on teacups while Dan studies our clues

The weather was absolutely perfect. Sunny but not hot!

We finished our scavenger hunt and rode a good number of rides. After a stroll down main street with frozen yogurt (and picking up a new puzzle!) we decided to head out so Dan could make his dinner cruise.<\/p>\n

On our way out, Dan ran into Tigger! Imagine his excitement!

\nI managed to make it home ok on 4 trains with all our stuff on my own. It was so good to be home in the air conditioning, off my feet with Penny!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
