Magic kingdom

On Monday, Andy, Lily and I had a lovely time at Disneyland. Below are a bunch of pictures of Lily smiling, which pretty much captures the day.

OK, so on this one she's more grimacing than smiling. The teacup wheel is surprisingly hard to turn.

Here we're on the Storybook ride, heading into the mouth of the whale that swallowed Gepetto and Pinocchio.

Andy was enamored with the landscaping -- that's a patchwork of succulents on the side of the hill.

He also stalked a real live bird that was strolling through the storybook villages.

I was grateful numerous times throughout the day that we'd decided to let Amalia have a fun day with Grandma at home. I am told that they, too, had a lovely time.
