Well I'm done in SoCal for now. Had a great night at
Disneyland yesterday and a great day today. The holiday fireworks were fun and of course It's a Small World looks fabulous in holiday colors. Took the ride today and loved it as well. I had done that before at the holidays but didn't remember a lot of it.
Did Haunted Mansion again and also did Soarin and ToT. I think those were all the rides I did. I sat for a LONG time in the hub just listening to the Christmas music and people watching. Had to gouge my eyes out with hot pokers a few times...

Didn't seem too crowded today. I think I went back and forth twice between the parks. Wandered over to DD and the GC for a bit. Had to play Ms Pac Man--it was an off day for me at the game

.
Hung out at my favorite everything in a bread bowl...ate eggs and bacon in a bread bowl for breakfast and clam chowder in a bread bowl for lunch-dinner combo. Had a margarita to boot. Yum!
I spent a zillion dollars, enough to get half a room on a weeklong cruise, yesterday. They had fabulous holiday merchandise calling my name! Plus a few NBC things I needed for gifts. Gladly going home empty handed as I had most of my purchases shipped. They did not have any winter/holiday antenna toppers other than NBC styles. I got the turkey mickey and indiana jones hat. No holiday pins either. I'm not a big pin person but I always pick up a holiday one or two.
Has anybody been collecting the Mickey Christmas series of plates / ornaments / mugs / figures / disc ornament / ball ornament? It was a different Mickey each year and this is year 5 of 5--Sorcerer Mickey. I was unable to find the figurine. I found the figure ornament and everything else, but in years past there was a separate figure.
I don't know if they didn't make it or if they don't have it/are out of it. Will have to send my spies looking! There is a new series now that Mickey is done--Disney wouldn't want to lose your $$$$! Snow White is the 2005 group and I guess it will be a different princess for the next 5 years (SW is 1 of 5).
I collect plates and I'm big on Christmas decorating...

I do it Disney style...one tree is up, though I can't claim to be the one that decorated it. Have a tree or two more to go. We'll be ready for the Thanksgiving crowds

OK end of my rambles. That's what free wireless access gets you! And if I get "randomly" selected for security screening again I'm going to hurt someone. It's not so random when it's coming and going. I mean come on, if I wanted to take down the plane why wait? ugh...
OH...jury is still out on Prime Time Shuttle...have a call or two to make this week then I will share my info. JetBlue of course is fab if you have them and if you don't get strip searched.
