Shellie May eyes the wine menu

So they sat us in a little lounge area while we waited for our table.

Shellie May, I do not think you are old enough to order a cocktail. Sorry.

This bench is very luxurious!

"Hello, handsome ceramic man!" said Shellie May. "Tee hee!"

She is silly!

(Besides, the dancer already has a flamenco dancer partner!)

Shellie May in Buena Vista Street and Hollywoodland

"Buena Vista Street!!!!!"

I like the atmosphere there, and the name is so great!

"Yay! It's a trolley!"

Shellie May has trouble with screens

"Hey, look! It's Monstropolis TV!"

"Aw. You can't see it."

"Hey, look! It's a TV broadcast in our monster taxi!"

"Aw. Hey look! It's the Child Detection Agency's monitors!"

"Oh....darn it!"

Did I mention Shellie May loves mirrors?

Who is that darling bear peeking out at my Shellie May?

"It's ME!" Shellie May grinned.

Trunk Show!

We went into the shops in Buena Vista Street. There was a "trunk show" with work from different artists. Pretty cool!

I had to hold Shellie May up high to get a picture of her with this pretty picture of Snow White!

Come fly with Minnie! (and Shellie May)

What a fun little show.



"It's MINNIE!!!!"



I believe this show is going away, though. :(

Shellie May is safely stowed

Shellie May could not stay in the seat with me, but I made sure she could see the show!

Shellie May is Soarin'

"Hey! I can ride Soarin'!" said Shellie May.

Oh dear.

Shellie May is ready to fly!

"Yay! Soon we will be on Soarin'!"

Shellie May is Soarin'

So after Ariel's Undersea Adventure, we went on my mom's favorite, Soarin'!

I think Shellie May adds a nice splash of color to the queue.

Shellie May is a VIP!

And then a nice CM whisked us away to the front of the line because of Shellie May's special costume! Aw.

"Yay!"

Shellie May matches the Litlte Mermaid building kind of

Shellie May looks right at home here! Of course, she is dressed like a Cast Member, so....

Shellie May with an arch

"It's like a beautiful Disney tunnel!!!!!"

I LOVE this building.

"The architecture looks like bubbles!" said Shellie May.

Shellie May in a chair at Ghiradelli

"Hello up there!" said Shellie May.

Shellie May with chocolate!

Shellie May, Mom and I all agreed that ice cream was a legitimate choice for early breakfast/lunch. Mmmmmm!

The greeter at Ghiradelli was so excited to see Shellie May, she gave me TWO pieces of chocolate! Then when we were waiting in line for ice cream she gave me a third one so Shellie May could have one too.

(I really would have shared with Shellie May even if she hadn't. :) )

Shellie May meets a new friend

A nice Japanese woman saw Shellie May and smiled and wanted a photo. I said we should get one of our bears together!

Hugs for all! With Duffy!

I finally got a photo of me hugging Duffy!

So did Shellie May!

Shellie May is somewhere familiar

So I finally met up with my mom. YAY!

I wanted to make sure I got a good photo with Duffy...so we all went to meet him again!

"That is all right," said Shellie May. "I could meet Duffy all day!"

Shellie May with Minnie

Look! They both have stripes!

Shellie May was very happy to meet Minnie!

Come fly with me, Shellie May!

"Wow! I'll bet I look pretty cool next to this old-fashioned airplane and this monorail track!"

Shellie May by an old-timey building

"Can you believe that just a few years ago, this place used to be all gaudy and industrial-looking?" I asked.

"Ssh," said Shellie May. "You are ruining the magic."

"Oops. Sorry."

Shellie May and Five and Dime

"Look! It is Five and Dime!"

"And Goofy!"

We watched their show. It was early in the morning and the park wasn't crowded, so there were not many people there!

Shellie May by the restrooms

"This room says 'Women'," said Shellie May. "Do they have a room for bears?"

"Um....I don't think so," I said awkwardly.

Shellie May can't decide

"There are so many wonderful things to do in Disney California Adventure! Should we go back and meet Duffy again? Or go do something else?"

"Stop sitting on the fence and decide!" I said.

"Is that a joke? I don't get it."

Is this still San Francisco?

I don't remember if this place in Disney California Adventure is still San Francisco. Can you spot Shellie May?
