The best part about flying standby during the holidays and getting stuck in airport for three days is that when you land at LAX (with a dream and a cardigan) and finally accept the fact that you will not make the final connecting flight to Vegas your parents call to say they drove from LV to come pick you up and you get to sleep in a bed that night after all. And then when they actually show up, they have your two sisters with you and announce that they are taking you to Disneyland the next day. That is happiness. Seeing Disneyland at Christmas time has been on my bucket list for far too long and it was great to check that one off the list. They do it up right around there. It's a Small World gets 10x happier (which I didn't think was possible) and the Castle is gorg (not that you can tell from my crappy photo, but I needed some proof) and they even make it SNOW on Main Street after the fireworks. And despite the bajillion and a half people that were there (I've never seen a Disney park so crowded) we still got to ride Indiana Jones TWICE! It was a lovely "Welcome back to the Mainland" indeed.
THAT is awesome. Disneyland at Christmas is our favorite, did you go on the Storybook ride and see all the teeny tiny wreaths on the doors and lights on the roofs? They do it down to every last detail there and it's a dream come true!! Love it!!!
