A Busy Disneyland: A Normal Chinese Day

Picture of Disneyland at night

My family and I went to Disneyland over Thanksgiving weekend. As much as Sarah has been looking forward to finally seeing this place, my parents warned her that it would be very crowded during the holidays. “I’m Chinese, I can handle it!” she said. Yes, Disneyland was busy, but we both joked how the lines were still shorter than those at the Shanghai Expo, and at least you got to go on a ride at the end!

Amusingly, after only a few days in Los Angeles, Sarah was ready to go back to Utah where it was quieter. LA was too busy for her. It’s only been eight months since she arrived in the US, and she’s already grown accustomed to the smaller crowds. We are so easily spoiled here! It’ll be interesting when we make our first trip back to China, then, where every Saturday and Sunday is “Thanksgiving at Disneyland.”
