Mr. Mouse meet Mr. Nathan

Today Me and Nate went with his Nana to Disneyland. Nate had never come face to face with the famous mouse before and ever since Mickey Mouse Clubhouse started on the Disney channel, he's been really into Mickey. One of his favorite songs is "Hot Dog" that they sing at the end of every episode - he grabs his Mickey doll and bounces it looking at us as to say, "Come on, sing the song." and we have to sing "Hot dog, hot dog, hot digggity dog" a few times while he bounces Mickey (or any other toy that he decides needs to dance) and it makes him happy.
We started out in California Adventure and had to hit up the Mission Tortilla Factory tour first to get our fresh hot tortilla (YUM!) Then as we headed towards the Hollywood area, there HE was, the man (scratch that) the mouse, MICKEY. He had Minnie and Pluto with him so there was quite a line that I waited in as my mom walked Nate around. Halfway thru the line the character attendant shouted out that Mickey and friends would be leaving in 5 minutes (Boo) then as I was 2 groups away from Mickey he shouted a 2 minute warning (Yes, we'd make it) then as the group in front of us moved on, Mickey turned to the attendant and pointed at his watch to leave (Nooo!) But then Mickey looked over at Nate and grabbed him to give him a last hug - it was nice, but Nate... he was a little freaked out. He didn't cry but you can tell he wasn't thrilled.
Then we hit up Nate's favorite show Turtle Talk with Crush. It was a good one, Dori showed up and we talked some whale. Then we checked out the Playhouse Disney show which was "ok" Nate isn't familiar with Bear in the Big Blue House so he thought the giant bear was a little odd, as well as the big gorilla that came out during Stanley. But then they cranked on the bubbles and boy did that make Nate happy. They should just do that for the whole show.
After some lunch we let Nate run thru the water area and get soaked - he LOVES that place!
Yuck!
Here you see Nate asleep on the way home (as usual) with his new Mickey Mouse that his Nana got for him.
