Disneyland!

Roger and I are still in shock over our Christmas gift from Heather and Kyle - we are all going to Disneyland in Hong Kong! For years, I have been telling the girls they need to give me grandchildren while I am still young enough to take them to Disneyworld. You can imagine our surprise when Heather gave Samantha, Emily, Roger and I the same sized square box and inside was a Disney character with a note that said "Can't wait to see you at Disneyland in Hong Kong!" I immediately started crying tears of joy and couldn't stop! The girls are excited but not nearly as excited as I am! I'm like that little kid on the TV commercial - "I'm too excited to sleep!"
We are flying to Macao, the Las Vagas of Hong Kong, on Tuesday morning - staying at the Venetian hotel for 2 nights and then going the Disneyland and staying there for 3 days - flying home on Sunday. Kyle apologized for not giving me more notice to plan and organize - which is half the fun for me - anticipation!
Friends of Mel and Ray have a daughter who is touring Asia with her boyfriend and they were going to visit us while in KL - Heather had to change the dates with them because of our trip but, swore them to secrecy. Well, Mel heard about a "big secret" and she and Judy guessed that it was one of 2 things: either Megan and Carlos were coming to KL or Megan was pregnant! Megan called Heather and said "tell them already - you won't believe the rumors over here!"
It is cooler in Hong Kong - in the 50-70 degree range. We packed a few warm clothes because we thought we might go up into the mountains for a week-end so we should be OK. Heather had to borrow stuff for her and the girls!
Emily says she is going to see "Rella" - can't say Cinderella!
I'm really missing Megan and Carlos!!!!
