Tokyo Disney Fun, in the Rain

Friday we went to Tokyo Disneyland. It was Miss M's graduation from kindergarten ceremony, even though we still have 9 days left of school! We went a bit earlier simply because it was a good day for daddy to take off. The forecast called for occasional showers, but we thought we would take our chances. We got there around 10 and immediately got our fast pass for Pooh's Honey pot ride. Then the K Man wanted rides and more rides, and Miss M wanted to watch the parades. We divided and conquered! The rain was periodic throughout the day with some fairly strong showers at certain points, but we had our rain gear and enjoyed the cooler weather and shorter lines as opposed to hot sunny conditions and long lines. At around 5 it stopped and we thought we were in the clear. I took Miss M to the night time electrical parade and daddy took the K Man to drive cars and ride the rollercoaster in Toon Town. While driving, the rain picked up, but it did not stop the K Man. He just kept wanting to ride it over and over again. Unfortunately their rain gear was with us in the stroller. When we went to meet them to leave the park, they were soaked. The K Man put on his Mickey poncho and said, "Ok, now that we are in our rain gear can we go again?" So daddy, being the ever kind and patient daddy that he is, took him one last time. I think he drove the cars about ten times and rode the roller coaster about 6 times. It was a fabulous day in spite of the weather and we all had a lot of fun. Even the J Man, tagged along. I told the husband "He is such a good baby that I often forget he is around." He just went a long with the rest of us and never once got fussy or unhappy. Of course, how could he when he is at the happiest place on earth?!:)
