And during the summer we lived close enough to hear the Disneyland fireworks at 9:00 every night... I've been thinking about how I miss some of the old Tomorrowland stuff... sigh. As for Flickr... annoyance aside, I'd edit the comments to remove the link and send the person a note saying that you've left in one or two links to the group, and ask nicely that if they'd like to comment it's just a comment not a link. Some people can be oblivious, and you might save other people the headache. I have seen sort of a chain letter type thing where a pic is tagged (by a commenter) as found by way of my contacts favorites or some silly thing. It depends on how curmudgeonly you want to be. :) I'm all for cranky if it's necessary. I grew up going to Disneyland annually, in the wood paneled station wagon.

My daughter (4) just discovered the Peter Pan story & movie this year, and we all love to get into those flying pirate ship seats and sail over London, surrounded by the stars. We'll be going this Friday (we live here in So.Cal and have annual passes), so maybe we'll just give Mr. Toad a whirl! And what a wonderful, memorable treat for your daughters, by the way.

And what great fun you must have had! We have a Disneyland here in Hong Kong albeit a much smaller one and we've been to it 3 times this year already. My girls don't seem to be tired of it.

One of the lawyers in his firm was not sure that he would be able to take his family until the very last moment, so he didn't tell them where they were going until they were on the plane. They got so excited that both of them threw up. I'm glad to hear that you had such a great time. My husband’s firm goes on a retreat every year, and for several years we went to Disneyworld.

I''ve seen those links sometimes on flickr and I agree they are annoying. I would ask the commenter to not link. Let us know what happens with it. Look how cute you all are with your curly hair!
