On two previous trips to Disneyland, Alec had wanted to be part of the 'Jedi Training Academy' and has developed a fascination with Darth Vader (we haven't yet let him watch any of the films, read: he doesn't really comprehend Darth's evil character).
So, on our recent trip to Disneyland (27 August) I was determined to get him in this time. Since the announcer always picks the children in Star Wars merchandise, I purposefully brought Alec's Halloween costume (bought last November on Halloween clearance) of Darth Vader. It worked like a charm! The announcer called to Alec, "and the mini Vader in front, we'll try to turn you from your dark path."
I filmed all 20 minutes of it and we bought the Disney photographer's picture of him-it was definitely the highlight of this trip!

Also, huge thanks to my cousin Colin who got us in FREE!
