disney at christmas

[Sherry E]

I was thinking I had seen a Pooh parade photo when I scrolled through the thread for the 90th time but I couldn't recall whose photo it was, and I didn't think it was 100% identical to the one above. I can see I need to look through the thread another 90 times!! I just didn't think the photo looked like an older photo, so that caught my attention.

Also, I wasn't on my game yesterday as I got some bad news about an old friend's health so I was preoccupied with that.

Sharp eyes, Kayla's Mom!! (And glad to know you are still out there with us!)

Please, folks - if you are going to show a photo you got from some other source, please acknowledge that it is from another source. Or if you want to refer to a certain photo that someone in the thread has posted, you can quote that post so it will show who originally posted it. We all love this thread and enjoy sharing what pictures we have taken, as well as enjoy the other ones being shared, and everyone deserves to have their own photos seen, appreciated and identified.

I should mention, also, that, a couple of days ago I was going to search around online and look for some random DLR Halloweentime photos to see if I could find anything to add to the Halloween at DL super thread and to this thread. I was mainly looking for 'official' Disney photos. I wondered if there was anything that could be used in the two threads (of course, I would mention it if I got it from another source) or to which I could post a link. Specifically, I wanted to find some photos of the holiday tour or the "snow" on Main Street - or just anything we had not already seen in either thread. I tried Yahoo Images first, but I searched for Christmas first instead of Halloweentime, and a bunch of thumbnails of people's personal DLR Christmas photos popped up.

I noticed right away, on the very first page of thumbnails, that some of Prettyprincessbelle's (Courtney) photos were right there!! Then I went to the next page and the next page, and Prettyprincessbelle was all over the place! There were other DIS-ers' photos there too - that is what Yahoo Images came up with when I typed in "disneyland at christmas time." So then Prettyprincessbelle/Courtney went to Google Images and typed in the same thing, and she came up with one or two of my photos - not even Christmas photos, but some of my Bret Michaels at Disneyland photos, lost in a sea of other thumbnails!!

So it made me realize how easily our photos can be accessed online by anyone whenever we post them somewhere!!

This picture is from November of 2009, it's my picture. It was posted on page 11, post number 159.

I am so sorry it was in with my Album but know for a fact my DD11 has downloaded a lot of Pooh Bear photos for her club. Yes 11 year old has a Pooh Bear Club. I should of know it wasn't mine since I never get to see the parade.

Again I am so sorry

Let me try and add some of mine (I hope)

No worries. That is adorable that your daughter has a Pooh Bear Club.

hubby wanted to take a pic of me in front of every tree there, here are some, this is back in 2002

Smiley face, I totally love that Toy Story tree, where was that at? I wonder if they have that all the time. It is great.

Anyone know if the Disney hotels have a special Christmas Dinner? If so, any idea what the cost? Any pictures of Christmas stockings to order to be delivered to the hotel rooms? What are the park hours the week before and after Christmas? Does California Adventure stay open too?
Any other special things to plan for during the Christmas holidays?


(Doing my part to keep this on the front page, since I do not have any pics to add).

I'm pretty sure that was in the world of Disney store in downtown Disney. I have a pic of the princess tree somewhere too...I'm not very organized in the photo department!

Bumping this thread. Do you know that Chrismas is only 8 months away? That will be here before we know it!

hey all

hoping this serves as a nice bump! but i also have a question.

since we have 4 little ones in the home now, we are minimizing on the christmas presents that santa brings every year....that way we can go to disney in december and feel all good about it. i firmly believe that kids remember times spent with the family instead of that barbie dream house they got and never played with!

anyways...this year we are doing disneyland the second week of december and i would like to pick up some 'cheaper' stocking stuffers.

i read somewhere on dis....that someone mentioned a store selling height charts. i thought the writer said they were $3.... you put them on the wall and the hieights are based on rides they are tall enough to ride.

i LOVE this!

now...does anyone know where abouts i could pick 4 of these up?!

i also do bath bombs for the kids. they love them. is there anywhere in disneyland that sells them? or is there a lush nearby? i thought i bought 4 disney ones last year in disneyworld but i can't remember where.

ok, i guess this is when i admit i have a very nice memory...its just terribly short!

We got ours at World of Disney, they were around the center of the store near the princess toys, we asked a CM and she took us right to them.

Were these height charts only $3? Do they have all the major rides listed on them?

 

[Kayla's Mom]

I believe they were only $2.95 each. We got them back in September of last year. My DD is napping right now otherwise I would double check (it's on the back of her door), I am pretty sure all of the major rides are on there.

ETA: Ok, I just checked the height chart and it appears anything with a height restriction is on there (including the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail and Tuck and Roll Buggies at DCA!)

there is a bath store in Downtown Disney, I always go in there to buy the bars of primal elements soap. They do have tons of bath stuff...I just can't remember what they are called..it's on the left side as you are walking through Downtown Disney, about 3/4 of the way down....
Those charts are so cool!! I need to get them for our 5 grand kids!!

It's called Basin! they have chemical free bathproducts...if you go to the disney site you can find your way to the downtown disney area and see the store....

 

[Sherry E]

Oh, I totally forgot to answer earlier about the bath bombs. I looooove me some bath and body soaps, gels and lotions, so I am up to speed on all of that!!

Basin is the store in Downtown Disney, and they have some good stuff.

Lush and its bath bombs are located at Anaheim Garden Walk nearby to DLR.

Also at Garden Walk is The Body Shop (which I love!).
