Disneyland as a Kid

When a trip to Disneyland was announced, I shouted with glee.  The characters in my favorite movies walked Main Street and met us in person.  Anything became possible in Disneyland.
My imagination ran wild in the real world, but everyone expects you to imagine a little when you are in Disneyland.  The past comes alive.  Everybody is in a bit of a trance.  The impossible awaits around every corner.
Disneyland brought out the kid in me, even then.  It brought out my deeper imagination.  The part of me that knew anything was possible.
When it was time to go home, I didn't want to go.  Who wants to leave a place that makes you feel five years younger, even when you are seven?
