Happiest Place on Earth

Life is such that sometimes you need emotional support and sometimes you need practical advise and most times you need both sprinkled with a little humor. A friend of mine this week gave me a great suggestion for when I can't sleep. She mentally walks through California Adventure and Disneyland until she drifts off from the Happiest Place on Earth to the Sleepland that makes sure that life stays happy. She said she rarely makes it all the way to It's A Small World before she is fast asleep.

I LOVED this idea and thought I would try it especially since I have been missing Disneyland so much this last month. I woke up the other night around 2:30 and couldn't fall back to sleep, so I quickly pictured myself in California Adventure. I walked all through there then caught myself smiling as I "walked" into Disneyland. I have been to Disney WAY TOO many times that this was such an easy process, but having a Disney Pass for 4 years can do that to you. I revealed in walking down main street and it was as if I could smell the carmel apples, the ice cream shops and the popcorn. I could hear the giggles of little girls skipping around in their princes dresses and see little boys flying though the air pretending to be Buzz Light Year. I didn't even make it to Pirates of the Caribbean before I was fast asleep.



It made me smile when I woke up and it actually helped me not be so stressed when I went to bed that I might wake up and not fall back to sleep...plus I got to travel through Disneyland enjoying all the favorite things I love there! Thanks Carmen that was the PERFECT idea for me!!
