Sunday morning came early.
Very early.
Ridiculously early.
Earlier than the early bird getting the early worm that is up too early to begin with.
It was that early.
But I had an appointment to keep with the Mouse and the Mice Chatters who dutifully accepted the challenge to open the park with me at 6:30 AM.
What
was
I
think
ing
?
So, at 5:30-ish I showed up at the M&F parking structure. This is the best shot I could get (in my condition):
DISNEYLAND OPEN UNTIL 4 PM
This is how it was reported on the DL website and on all the signage outside the Park. It was, however, later to be proven a LIE! More on that story later...
The parking structure would not open until 6AM, so we had some time to hold a PARKING STRUCTURE MEET!
Here are the Happy Chatters who were already whooping it up when I got there:
Pratt55, her terrific husband, MaxAndBellesMom, judimouse, and superstacie!
Lunatics all!
After a few minutes, RadioBarry sidled up:
And the irrepressible Spidergrrrl (that's 3 "r"s) showed up for her First Meet:
She is standing in front of a Mini Cooper BTW.
Here is the parking lot itself:
Crazy Legs and Captain Phoebus showed up bright eyed and bushy tailed:
Rixter and Mickey Maxx came up from down south to liven things up (like they always do):
Sam (the Man!) was not about to miss out on the fun:
Almondot documenting the hijinx:
Darkbeer and DeeOhGeesMom showed up because I told him I would be arriving by helicopter:
Psyche!
And Dan showed up with the brain-stumper extraordinnaire:
Rubik's Cube! He was having a much better time solving Rubik's Apple.
At 6AM on the dot, the lines opened and we were escorted to our amazing parking spots in the Pinocchio lot:
I was basically standing next to the tram crossing when I took this picture.
We got the first tram in and headed for the security gates.
Piratemunkee with Belle626 and husband (please correct me if I am wrong here).
And some more Chatters from the other side of the structure entrance:
DLForever, Dusty, Rixter
We get in line and judimouse busts out the Donuts:
My apologies to judimouse for getting a picture with her eyes closed but I was transfixed by the sugary goodness of the breakfast items.
The sun is coming up while we wait in line:
I said "wait in line" already, didn't I?
We enter the gates right at 6:30 and get together for a quick shot in front of the Mickey floral:
Darkbeer and a few others hitch a ride down Main Street:
Onto (and past) the beloved HUB:
I just had to jump up on the planter and get a quick shot of Main Street:
Piratemunkee shoots back!
We had a great time and it was only 6:35AM!
But it gets even better in the next segment.
When we actually start to ride rides and stuff.
Stay tuned, BRB...

I think of it as a NEED vs a want. There are just things that you need to talk to other women with. You may have the best relationship in the world with your husband, but there are just times you need your girlfriends. It makes for a healthier and happier you which makes everything else you do better.
