Celebrating With "The Ancient One"....
While having dinner Robin related the fact that when Paul turned 50 she thought that was ancient. In fact, she gave Paul a walking cane with a horn on it. A few years later, her husband turns 50.... 50 is not that old now! We all had a giggle.
We got there a little early and did some business at the Disneyland ticket office
It's 4:30 and getting dark already... Check the moon!

Sue (Vegetarian) - Bob (Chicken) - Paul (Lobster) Paella
Did You Know? - Types of paella include Valencian paella (Spanish: paella valenciana), vegetarian/vegan paella (Spanish: paella de verduras), seafood paella (Spanish: paella de marisco), and mixed paella (Spanish: paella mixta), but there are many others as well. Valencian paella is believed to be the original recipe[4] and consists of white rice, green beans (bajoqueta and tavella), meat (chicken and rabbit), white beans (garrofón), snails, and seasoning such as saffron and rosemary. Another very common but seasonal ingredient is artichoke. Seafood paella replaces meat with seafood and omits beans and green vegetables. Mixed paella is a free-style combination of land animals, seafood, vegetables, and sometimes beans.
