I grew up 30 minutes from Disneyland
For a kid to say they grew up 30 minutes from Disneyland is pretty lucky, in my opinion. I grew up in Orange County. I lived in Costa Mesa which was 30 minutes from Disneyland if you take Harbor Blvd. straight up. It was great! I have been to Disneyland more times than I can count. When I had children we took them there a number of times as well.
There are so many fun rides and things to do at Disneyland. If you have never been, make it a goal to go at least once in your life. You will love it!
Here is a website I found for Disneyland
Disneyland
A few years ago I lived in a town called Brea and I worked across the street from Disneyland. One of my clients daughters worked at Disneyland. I actually did not go to the park during this time.
Some of the trips to Disneyland
This picture was taken at Disneyland when I was about 14. I am the tall one on the end

Return to Pooh Corner
sung by Kenny Loggins
I love this song! It reminds me of the innocence within myself
Fly into LA X airport if you want to go to Disneyland
Matterhorn
This is one of the rides I like best at Disneyland and will usually try to go on it a number of times, but it is one of the rides that has the longest lines because everyone else loves it too

This is me and my best friend from high school on a trip we took back then

I love Splash Mountian! They have a big drop near the end. So fun! And you will get all wet on this ride, great for summer to cool you off!
The Little Mermaid
The Little Mermaid (Two-Disc Platinum Edition)
Amazon Price: $19.99 (as of 01/02/2010)
Haunted Mansion
I have always loved this. It is a slow ride which you have to walk in at first squished against a room full of people where the lights go out and they make you think you are trapped in a room with no doors, but you are not and then it lets you out where you walk past haunted pictures and get on a ride where it is two per seat. This ride is a classic to me!

Space Mountain
This ride is a roller coaster through space. It always makes me dizzy, but I like it, so i try to make it on this at least once per Disneyland visit
Disneyland Space Mountian With the Lights On
The old Space Mt... about 1/2 of the ride with the lights on. The lights are on because the ride's braking system stopped all the cars, probably one got too close to another. The CMs come along (starting with the end of the ride) and push each car to get it going then gravity takes over.

It's a small world
This is a slow ride that makes me happy. It shows you dolls to represent people from all over the world while you ride in a boat and the song It's A Small World plays in different languages
It's A Small World Disneyland Fantasyland California
The Happiest Cruise that has ever sailed. Enjoy this trip that starts for the full clock parade and then sit on down for your trip around the word. This ride has one of the most infectious songs know to man. You can't say I didn't warn you! I am the videographer and copyright holder to this video.

The electrical parade at Disneyland
I love to watch the Electrical Parade. It has an upbeat song that plays while all the lit up floats go by. Great if you have children or are a child
Disney Main Street Electrical Parade
Footage of the Disneyland/DCA electrical parade was shot on May 28th, 2006. To achieve the best sound quality, I used the original soundtrack (with a slight modification to reflect the fact that the parade is no longer shown on Main Street). Enjoy!

- I've have similar memories of our trips to Disney World, but I've never been to Disneyland. Great photos. I love It's A Small World, and The Electric Parade too.

- Well, we have certainly been to Disney World quite a few times, but never made it to Disneyland. I guess we are fortunate that it is a comfortable drive to Orlando -- should probably go more often!

- Disneyland was my dream when I was little, and I finally did visit Disneyworld when I was 17 - not quite the same! I love your lens though - it really sums up the magic. 5*

- What a blast! Thanks for sharing. I've never been to Disney land, been to Disney world though. At least, I don't think I've been to Disney land. May have gone when I lived in California with ex husband. Those years are such a blur...lol
