Greetings fellow Mouse Fans!
While at D23 last week, I made my first official visit to Disneyland. (I was there once for about an hour in 1996 but have little to no memory of it!) Much hoopla ensued with my travel buddies (namely Beci, Annette, Vicki, Lori and her Mom) snapping photos of me getting my ticket, using my ticket and walking through the turnstile. They then proceeded to shield my eyes, lead me to the bottom of Main Street USA and aim cameras at me to immortalize my expression upon seeing Sleeping Beauty’s Catle. 
<— It looked a little something like that! I was stunned by how small it is in comparison to Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World. I think I actually said something like, "It’s so cute!"
After a stop to pay homage to the light in Walt’s Apartment above the Fire Station, it was on to ride some rides. I was thrilled to be where it all began!
Be well and make magic wherever you go!
