Disneyland - One Last trip. . .

I spent only a day and a half at Disneyland with the family on this trip. It was fun! We did all of our favorites. I got to experience the baby care center which was WONDERFUL and so helpful. If you have a baby and are headed to Disneyland -- be sure to look up where this is on the map.
