heres the back of the adult Christmas sweatshirt

Ok now I have to add this to my list. It is so cute. I have not gotten a Christmas sweatshort from DL in quite a few years. The good thing is I will be in DLR Dec 3 to the 5th. There should plenty of them in stock!

We'll be there on Nov. 12th which is a friday.

Im with Rogers (Hubby is with Telus, but doesnt have a smartphone). The plan is $40 a month for 500mb and a bunch of other stuff. Its a Data Add-on plan and it has the option of paying $10 for 30 days of using my included data in the US. My voice pack will be $40 for 70 min. and a reduced rate after that, so $50 in total makes me *heart* Rogers. $110 isn't bad either though, I think thats the going rate if you have a regular data plan through rogers too.

Sorry I'm taking so long to say thankyou! what about texting? do you do that? We tried Rogers, but in the town I live in, for some strange reason, right where my house is, it's a "dead zone" for Rogers! The cable guy had to use my phone to call his office when he was here working on the cable!

heres the back of the adult Christmas sweatshirt

and the only kids sweatshirt i could find was this (they have an adult version as well):

I'm so glad I can fit into the large kids size cause I really like this!!
oops, edited to add: just re-read and you say they have adults as well...I usually end up liking the kids version of stuff better!! lol.... there should still be lot's of selection at the end of this month

Thanks for the cute sweatshirt pics! I can fit in the kid size x-large, they aren't so baggy!
I can't wait for more from you guy's heading there quicker than me!!

That red sweatshirt is ADORABLE~

 

[merrrydeath]

Well, Meredith, we may be among the first people ever to actually be wheeled out on stretchers at DLR because we simply ate too many treats...but I guess we have to take one for the team!!

I'm totally okay with taking one for the team. No one has posted a picture in the dining review thread of them too full to move yet!

Yup. I want this one!!

I found a few pictures from last year. I remembered reading it was possible they would remove the letters so I made sure I took pictures.

Doesn't seem like almost a year has flown by!

Oh, what great pics of the letters, SueTGGR! I've only "heard" about them at Christmas, never seen what they looked like...so cute with the characters on them and everything! December...get here already!

I'm not sure about these particular shirts, but they do have a few cute ones up on the Disney Store website. Search "Holiday Womens Minnie and Mickey Sweatshirt" the also have Mickey and Pluto one.

Denise, you could try Disneyland DelivEARS phone number. (800) 362-4533. I would wait until they have the sweatshirts in the stores or they may not know about them.

I love that kids sweatshirt! They should really make some of the kids stuff in adult sizes! its so much cuter than some of the adult ones.

Oooooooh!! Thanks so much, Jillian!! No one has posted it here yet! We knew that the candy cane letters were going to be rolled out one last time, but we didn't know they were up yet!! That makes me happy (even though I'm not getting to DLR until December!!)!! I actually got goosebumps when I read your post because I knew it meant the holidays are really about to begin and I'm sooooooooo excited (not sure I can wait until 12/12 to get there - I may have to storm DLR before that!)!!

And I agree with you - Yay! I hate that platform protruding out of the water. It's such an eyesore. I wish it could be fully submerged year-round.

OOOOOOH! And the Golden Gate Bridge is not being ignored, either! I was afraid they wouldn't decorate it again, but they are!! And A Bug's Land is getting its giant ornaments. The Christmas tree is in place. The wreath is over the Pacific Wharf area!

I am so excited to see that post! Jillian, you made my day!! One week until Holiday Time - and it's been 96 degrees! Not Christmasy at all!

Just ordered our 4 day park hoppers through ares travel!!! So excited - makes it seem really REAL!!!! Cannot wait to see everthing decked out!!!

Anyone know what gas prices are out there? We are renting a car and dont know if we should take that thing where they fill up the tank for ya at a certain price????? Thoughts?

Also, if there was 1 counterservice place that you just HAD to have on your trip, which one would it be???

It is nice to see the Holiday decorations go up in DL and DCA. Have you see todays Micechat.com In the Parks page showing the Holiday decorations in both DL and DCA. I was also glad to see the Candy Cane CALIFORNIA letters are up this year before the major overhaul of the front entrance. It is nice that DLR decorated the Golden Gate Bridge for the last time and Bug's Land too.

Thx Jillian for the post and it is great to see the resort all decoration half way until the Holiday season.

Man Sherry, that is hot weather during the Holiday season at DL.

Yay! for getting the 4-day Hoppers! Woo hoo!!

About counter service...hmmmm...one place. Well, I would say that in terms of food selection and overall beauty of the interior, you can't beat Plaza Inn. It's a lovely restaurant, aesthetically, and they have pretty decent food.

River Belle Terrace also has a really nice location in DL, and the food is pretty decent.

Lots of people enjoy the food at Whitewater Snacks in the GCH.

Pacific Wharf Cafe has a nice location in DCA.

My vote is either Plaza Inn or River Belle Terrace for a counter service place, based on both food selection & locale or decor.
