snow capped castle

We were at Disneyland in December with Paul and Alison and, needless to say, it was even more magical than usual.  The whole park was decked out in Christmas. This was the first year that Sleeping Beauty's Castle has snow and icicles as part of the holiday decor.  Here's a picture of Curt and I on the drawbridge.  We just got soaked on Splash Mountain so if we look a little disillusioned that's why.

Here is Paul and Alison, also a bit wet, standing in front of Sleeping Beauty's Castle.

it all started with a mouse

"To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future.  Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world."

    -Walt Disney, 1955
