Dapper Day

Yesterday, a few of us headed to Disney's California Adventure to celebrate Prestyn's birthday. I made a reservation at the Carthay Circle restaurant (it's nearly impossible to get in unless you've made a reservation a few days in advance), and decided to do it up. The Disney parks were unofficially hosting "Dapper Day" at this time - meaning the majority of people in the park were wearing formal clothes, often from another era entirely. While that sounds like fun, our motley crew considers "dapper" being showered and anything more than that is just too much work. I haven't laughed that hard in ages (my stomach was hurting that evening) and I'm so glad we were able to get together, it felt like it had been such a long time!

p.s. if you like yourself at all, order the fried biscuits if you head to Carthay Circle (two orders, just in case)

Note: I haven't edited any of these photos because for the most part the light was just fantastic
