The next morning, Giselle dashes off with her best friend Lily for a girl’s day. Louie begins sorting through the hamper and puts together a few loads of laundry. While the clothes are being cleaned, he takes out his laptop and signs into Walt-o-graph.

To: Goofy4Clarabelle

From: KingLouie:

Thanks again for your help. Giselle still hasn’t caught on. Whenever you want, go ahead and let people know your trip is “back on”. I doubt she’ll see the post today, she’s running around with a friend. When we get back I’m sure she’ll post an entire book complete with a zillion photos. Ha ha.

Giselle: We should have girly days more often.

Lily: For sure. I was thinking of getting a new bathing suit. Where did you get the brown one?

Giselle: Oh I love that one! It’s from the boutique on Wallaby Way.

Lily: Ohhh, yeah. I forgot.

Giselle is called over to the nail manicurist’s station. Lily takes out her cell phone and sends a text. The brown suit.

Louie’s finished with the laundry, packed 2 suitcases, 2 carry-on bags, checked in for their flights, and printed all hotel and car rental information. All he needs now is his wife.

Giselle: I should call Louie and check in on him.

Lily: Why?

Giselle: He’s been doing who knows what all day long. Besides, we haven’t talked about dinner yet.

Lily: Eh. I’m sure he’s fine. I have to make a quick stop if you don’t mind.

Giselle: Okay. For what?

Lily: Um. Buddy forgot his house key! What a lunkhead. And I have class tonight so I won’t be home to let him in.

Giselle: (laughing) Men.

Lily gets text. Ready and waiting.

The girls arrive at the airport where Buddy is a skycap.

Lily: Can you go in and give him the key?

Giselle: Sure.

Giselle enters the airport and heads over to Buddy and hands him the house key. As she turns around to leave she just about walks into Louie, her husband.

Giselle: What are you doing?

Louie: Making you very happy. Now hand your license over to Louie. C’mon we have a plane to catch.

Giselle: What? What are you talking about? And my license is in the car with Lily.

Lily hands Giselle’s handbag to her.

Giselle: Waaaait. What’s going on?

Louie: C’mon, c’mon. Trust me.

Giselle gives Lily the evil eye and heads off to security. It’s not until they reach the gate that she finds out what Louie is up to. Yes, he was on Walt-o-graph but he’s not Goofy4Clarabelle. He’s TheFavoriteGranny and he’s been spying on his wife’s posts for over a year and having a really fun time doing it.

All the while Louie is telling her about his plan, Giselle’s mind keeps venturing off to visions of Cinderella Castle and riding the Tomorowland Transit Authority. She’s in her own world.

They board the plane, settle in and Louie smiles. She still hasn’t caught on. The captain comes over the speaker.

Captain: Welcome aboard flight 717 with non-stop service to Santa Ana. Our flying time is 5 hours and 20 minutes.

Giselle’s eyes open wide. Louie busts out laughing. She looks at him.

Louie and Giselle: We’re going to Disneyland!
