Chat with those around us. Last time we met a fellow teacher, her mom and her kids, from the inland empire. And we also met football (soccer) players from Australia/New Zealand. We chatted with them for some time at GCH lobby. They were very nice!

We also play Who does that person look like - trying to find regular people who look like celebrities.

The usual picking at the paint on handrails or seeing where I can stick my gum. Just kidding :D

I used to read the pre-Pressler guidebooks. ;)

They were great. Every attraction, shop, and restaurant was not only listed, but described with couple of sentences, too.

I take in my surroundings and enjoy the company that I am with. Even if I were alone, it would be fun. I love to just look around every nook in DL, so, waiting in line (though hard on the feet) is a feast for the eyes.

I spout off DL facts and info on upcoming attractions, while my friends yawn and/or roll their eyes at me.

Sometimes my youngest wants to play the question game...in which you must ask a question....

When are you going to Disneyland?
Why do you want to know?
Etc...if you can't answer the question with a question, you're out...and the game starts again.

Honestly, though, we usually people watch, enjoy the theming, or chat with folks around us.

Thank God nobody said --- talk on the phone. recently more andmore people spend their time in lines on cellphones. It just ruins the whole ambience. Especially when they are yelling into the phone or using those aweful walkie talkie phones --- beep beep annoying conversation beep beep more annoying converstions ---


i like checking out the detail of the queue and try to see if i notice an small detail i normaly lost by other people
