It didn't have a very long line either. :) The entire time we were at Disneyland my parents were being super lovey-dovey-like, hand-holding galore! This year is their 25th year of being married.  It was cute. Perhaps one of the greatest parts of Disneyland was just being able to go on one last vacation with my grandparents.
