Disneyland September 2022 Bucket List

We are going to Disneyland today!!! 

And by "we", I mean my entire immediate family.  Both of my parents, my brother Jeremy and Eliot and me.  All together.  At Disneyland!!!  This is a dream come true.

I truly never thought this day would ever happen.  Have a dreamt about it?  Sure.  But did I ever think we would actually get my mother onto an airplane to fly across the entire length of the country so we could be able to do it... nope.

I am so excited about this trip... which has probably been evident in the ridiculous number of posts I've written leading up to it.  Now, the day is here and I am so happy.

Naturally, I made an insanely long bucket list to accompany my excitement leading up to this adventure.  Like my last Disneyland Bucket List from our March trip, I had to put everything into separate categories because it was getting a bit long.  So it's insanely long, but it's also epic, which should make for an awesome trip.  Let's check it out!

This list is extra long with 82 goals, but I'm pretty excited about it.  I don't expect to get all of the foods during our trip, especially since we'll only be in the parks for five days... but who knows?!?! Maybe I'll surprise myself.  And sharing is caring... so maybe we can all split some treats and team up to check more of them off of my list!

I'm so excited to visit Disneyland during Halloween.  I don't think Eliot and I have been there for Halloween Time since our September 2015 trip.  I really can't wait to show my parents all of the things Disneyland offers that Walt Disney World doesn't.  I'm also excited for Jeremy to see the Avengers Campus, and for Jeremy and Dad to see Star Wars Land.  My Mom is going to flip over It's a Small World.  Ahh, I'm so excited!!!

Bring it on giant oversized Disneyland bucket list!!!  I will complete most of you!!!  °o°
