Disneyland Day 1

So we had a successful day in Disneyland.  I was amazed at how much we go through in 1 day.  I honestly did almost every ride I wanted aside from the one’s that were closed (thunder mountain railroad and haunted mansion are closed 😦 ).  Its hard for me to stand and walk for hours.  I was hoping as I got in better shape that would improve but it really hasn’t.  In fact, if anything its gotten worse as my pain sensitivity and fibro has increased.

Tomorrow I plan on taking things more slowly with breaks.  I also bought shoes today that should help.  I just wish my feet and back weren’t so sensitive.  It would make things like this a lot more fun.

It was also super hot today.  99 degrees with high humidity.  Made the whole day challenging for me; nevertheless, it is the happiest place on earth and my first vacation in 3 years.  Still had a great time and am very blessed.   The prices also seemed more reasonable than I remembered them. I don’t know if that is because everything else has gotten more expensive or prices at Disney have gone down. Either way it wasn’t too bad.

Here are some photos of the trip so far.

  1. Haha! Your face in that Space Mountain picture is hilarious. You seriously look like you’re going to hurl. Glad you had a fun day in spite of the Space Mountain discomfort!

    1. It seriously was bad. If I ever get married and have kids they are going to have to put up with old foogie parents who get sick on rides. Sigh…Hopefully I will compensate in other ways. Ha

    1. Good idea. I have them on a back up hard drive service called carbonite but double back up is always a good idea.
