Disneyland

IT'S STILL THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH



















































The doors to Disneyland opened in 1955. I remember being so excited to go to Disneyland for the first time. I went with my grandpa and grandma Rich and my parents and my sister Debra.

My favorite attraction at Disneyland today is called Soarin' Over California.



I think about this statement from Brigham Young when I go on this ride: "As quickly as the spirit is unlocked from this house of clay, it is free to travel with lightning speed to any planet, or fixed star, or to the uttermost part of the earth, or to the depths of the sea, according to the will of Him who dictates. Spirits move with ease and like lightning. If we want to visit Jerusalem, or this, that, or the other place --and I presume we will be permitted if we desire --there we are, looking at its streets. If we want to behold Jerusalem as it was in the days of the Savior; or if we want to see the Garden of Eden as it was when created, there we are, and we see it as it existed spiritually, for it was created first spiritually and then temporally, and spiritually it still remains. ...God has revealed some little things with regard to His movements and power, and the operation and motion of the lightning furnish a fine illustration of the ability and power of the Almighty.... When we pass into the spirit world we shall possess a measure of this power."
