I just wanted to post a quick note about our trip (more to follow):

My wife Kristi, my son (6) West and I went to Disneyland this weekend and had a great time. We met Kristi's Aunt & Uncle down there and spent part of Saturday with them enjoying the Candlelight Processional and the Christmas fireworks. New DIS friends Karen (klam_chowder) and Robert joined us for the fireworks.

On Saturday, we met Karen and Robert again at the DCA ropedrop and challenged them on TSMM.

Later Saturday, we met up with old DIS friends Nancy (YellowMickeyPonchos), Ian, Zoe & Lily for the Christmas Fantasy parade.

Then we all met up with Nancy & family for Tiana's Showboat Jubilee.

We had a great time and had to drag West out of the Park...you'd think it was his first trip. :rotfl:

Fairly busy. We didn't get there until almost 11am on Saturday, so that day was pretty much wasted. On Sunday, we were able to do AstroOrbitor, Buzz, Star Tours and Space Mountain and then get to DCA for ropedrop at 10am.
