In an act of tremendous kindness, the Macless one and his family took me to Disneyland in the few hours we had after I arrived in California and before our 10.25pm flight to Boston.

We had a fun-packed and quick-paced 3 hours at Disneyland, and managed to squeeze in a number of experiences:

• The Pirates of the Carribean ride
• The Haunted House ride
• Star Tours to Endor (which I loved, and which my sons would have *loved* even more)
• The train ride around the outside
• Seeing part of the Grand Parade
• A quick walk through some of the different lands
• A look at the Lego store (which my sons would have *loved*)

I haven’t been to Disneyland before … and it was super fantastic. Some day I hope to return with my family. Thanks much to the Macks for a wonderful afternoon.

Such acts of kindness are almost enough for me to forgo the “Eric buy a Mac” rhetoric … but perhaps not 😉
