We Found Nemo At Last!

The other day we went to Disneyland for a few hours in the evening. Connor has been dying to ride the new submarine Nemo ride. He has talked about it so much. We have gone to Disneyland several times since the opening of the ride but the line has always been too long. Well, finally the line was down to "just" an hour wait. So, I decided I was absolutely going to wait in line! Connor was so excited that he wanted to wait with me. Rich took Abby to ride some rides while we waited. Connor was perfect! We talked and read the Disneyland map. We watched the submarines go by and Connor told me about all the things we would see under the water. Rich and Abby joined us when we got close to the front. Connor was just bursting with excitement! One of the workers noticed Connor's excitement and Abby's cuteness and talked to us while we were waiting. Finally, Connor's moment arrived and we descended the stairs into the sub. Connor could hardly contain himself he was so excited. Connor and Abby both loved the ride! They both had their faces practically plastered up against their porthole. Abby was so funny because she kept saying, "Bubbles, bubbles!" She was so excited about them. The animated portion of the ride was cool. Connor was excited to see Nemo and especially Crush. So, thank goodness, after the long wait, the ride was a hit. When we got off, we told the friendly Disneyland worker how much the kids enjoyed the ride. He replied, "Enough to ride it again?" I said, "It was fun but the line was too long." He said, "No, I mean we'll let you go again!" So, to Connor's sheer delight, we got to ride the submarine again! After riding again, Connor was very happy and declared, "I'm going to tell Makena!"
