The Dream Suite

So on our last full day at Disneyland my niece Brittany won their Grand Prize, a night in Walt Disney's apartment with her family called the Dream Suite. She was randomly picked as the winner of the prize. (can tell anyone later how it all happened too long for this post) It was absolutely amazing, still can't believe it happened. Disney was really generous to let us the extended family participate in a lot of the activities that my niece and her family won as part of the Grand Prize. We were able to be with them when the Queen of Martygraw (I really suck at spelling, but you get the gest) Queenie and her band introduced us to the suite in front of a large crowd. We then got to go up and get a tour of the Suite. It had a sitting room, guest bedroom with bathroom, master bedroom with grand bath, courtyard, and large balcony over looking Disneyland. (I am a Disney Novice, so I am not sure what we were overlooking) After the tour of the suite my brother and sister in-law Todd and Kim and their family got to go eat at the Blue Byou (sp?). We met up with them after dinner and got to be Grand Marshall's in the parade with them. It felt a little wierd strolling down main street in a double decker bus waiving to all we passed as though we were someone famous. It still makes me laugh when I think about it, it was an experience, but really fun. The Disney staff allowed us to hang out in the suite until after closing, we were then allowed to go out and enjoy the rides with a private party that had rented out the park until 1 am. We of course were losers and only lasted until 11:30. We walked our tired selves and children back to the hotel and crashed. It was really amazing to be apart of something so special.

We were randomly also selected to be the Grand Marshal's when we went to Disneyland (but no grand prize--it was before the year of a dreams)! I love Disneyland! You guys look like you are having lots of fun.
