Disneyland Traditions?

There is no reason, we didn't mean for it to happen, but my husband and I started a Disneyland tradition. We seemed to always start our first day with.....wait for it.....wait for it......

The Jungle Cruse! 

 Accident? I think not! The Jungle Cruise is one of the original 1955 attractions AND has some of the hippest cast members in the park! What better way to start your Disney Day off, right? Okay, Okay I'm just one of those people that has always traveled the park starting on the left and traveling clockwise. Because that's where the Dole Whip and Mickey Mouse pancakes are? More than likely its because that's how my mom trained me! Yes she is the organizational genius killing several proverbial birds with one veer to the left.

1. Jungle Cruise - check
2. Mickey Mouse Pancakes  - check 
3. Reservations to The Golden Horseshoe Revue - Check (when reservations were necessary to be assured to see the show)

All of this before 9am, which for you die hard Disneyland Gurus, know that that is no small feat! So I suppose I am just emulating my teacher and mastering the art.....Thanks Mom!

Things, I am sure, will change for us. As my son gets older and inevitably is drawn to the magnificent power of Sleeping Beauty's Castle and the riches of Fantasyland and beyond, our traditions may shift. Of course I will do my best to be sure our "First Ride of the Day" is at the very least one of the originals and as Casey Jr is our attraction of choice, I think there will be no fear in that!

Do you have a Disneyland Tradition? Big or small? Please feel free to share them!

Or maybe you should think about starting one!
