Disneyland Adventure - The REAL Story

Yesterday I told a story of our visit to Disneyland, but now I'm being asked what REALLY happened, so here goes . . .

It was a typical Disneyland day, we had flown Star Tours to Endor, followed by two trips around Space Mountain, and were heading towards It's A Small World. A huge crowd was forming, and there was a lot of noise and commotion. Soon we discovered that Nemo was missing, and we quickly volunteered to assist in the search. We were assigned to Jack Sparrow's squad, and thoroughly scoured the entire Caribbean, sustaining a few hits from cannon balls and fighting our way through the throng of drunken pirates clamoring for a bride, but no sign of Nemo anywhere.

We consulted with the ship captain on the Jungle Cruise, and he pointed us towards Indiana Jones, saying he glimpsed Nemo heading in that direction. We quickly jumped into our transportation vehicle and bumped and jostled our way towards the Idol, carefully averting our gaze from it's eye. When the rock slammed into our vehicle, we narrowly escaped! We ventured on. At the Haunted Mansion, the ghosts were of no help and pointed us to Thunder Mountain. We quickly boarded the train, but before we knew it, the engineer lost control and the train was barreling down the mountain, twisting and turning at an ever increasing speed, dynamite exploding, rocks propelling from every direction, bouncing off the train and slamming into us. But still, we kept moving. Nemo! Where are you?

We started jogging towards California Adventure - jumped on the Screamer and while we twisted, turned and looped at lightning speed, we couldn't find any trace of the little guy. We ran to the flight deck and just barely caught the hang glider in time to soar over California, still no sign of Nemo anywhere. We searched through Muppet-Land, enlisted help from Monsters Inc, still no luck. Finally, as a last resort, we rushed back and jumped into the submarine in the hope of finding Nemo somewhere in the ocean depths. Dive! Dive! Dive! Carefully we made our way along the ocean bottom, past oysters and eels and scary looking sharks. Nothing! Just as we were about to give up all hope, finally, we found him! Nemo!!! You're safe!!!! You've been here all along? Playing with your friends all day? Uh-oh - watch out for that W-H-A-L-E . . .

As I said, just a typical day at Disneyland! By the way, here's a photo of day two . . .
