Disneyland during the Holiday Season is just about the coolest thing ever. First off, it's not a thousand degrees like it would be in July. Don't get me wrong, I love Disney theme parks - but baking in the mid-day Anaheim sun with tens of thousands of other sweaty people sometimes gets old.
So not only are the days cooler in November and December, but the sun goes down earlier too, which helps bring the perfect chill to the air.
Then there are the attractions. Man, they deck the dang halls over there. Wreaths everywhere, garland, fake snow on Main Street (literally falling from the sky!) They have the Haunted Mansion Holiday where the characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas take over the Haunted Mansion - it's pretty much a whole new ride. They also have "it's a small world" holiday - which, regardless of if you like the attraction or not, is still festive as all get-out.
There's the "A Christmas Fantasy" Parade which I've never really seen, but am sure it's neat and stuff.
And at the Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor they have this peppermint ice cream that's unreal.
Yeah, Disneyland at the Holidays might be my favorite time to go there.
Wow, even though I went to two Disney parks in the span of a month this summer I'm still jealous of my brother.
Hope he has a good time.
And the ice cream ...
