We made a quick trip down to Disneyland, mostly to go shopping. I wanted the new Dooney and Bourke Disneyland bags but the ones they had were disappointing. I made a few other purchases though, including a picture of the Mad Hatter (as portrayed by Johnny Depp) to put near my sewing things. It's an excellent photo. Below is a picture of the ceremonial flag retreat.
We stayed in my favorite hotel room and this was my and Belle's view of the fireworks from my bed. Nice, right?
We also decided to go to Club 33 and invited some friends along. Belle was SO excited she couldn't keep her eyes open!
Isn't she beautiful in the Court of Angels?
My Pina Colada at the Club. It was so nice to settle down and have a drink.
I went with the pasta this time and it was fabulous. I loved the short rib bolognese and the mushroom marinara. I was not in love with the goat cheese veloute. The bread was, as always, great and almost my favorite part. I like the garlic olive oil with the balsamic vinegar. Yum!
We met Mickey Mouse and Pluto and they really loved Belle. Pluto was painfully jealous though. Mickey spent nearly twenty minutes playing with Belle! The characters always go the extra mile with the dogs. Mickey kept signing that "I 'heart' her." It was so sweet. Someone was an obvious dog lover.
I had a lemon puff but also had my favorite coffee and a chocolate cake. I put a chocolate stick in the cup to add to the flavor.
Mickey saw us again as we went shopping at the Club and sat down to play with Belle. Belle, as you can tell, did not mind the attention. People were jealous of Belle's attention but she's gorgeous. I bought the Mouse ears with the gold "33" on them and a purse hook. I felt bad because I took the last pair of Gold ears, but I already had the silver ones! I did the same thing last year when I got the last scarf. Ooops.
Belle's picture in front of the Club. This is her third trip to the Club so it's becoming old news to her but I still have fun.
