Jingle Cruise (once again sorry the quality is not great!)

I don't have any of Fantasyland at all. I can't believe I didn't take any in that area!

I just wanted to pop in here quickly, while I can. My Internet has been down all day, for no apparent reason (no outage on Time Warner's end, no visible problems with my modem or the connections, no problem with the master cable box down in the garage, etc.), no signal issues, etc. The Time Warner guy just left here a few minutes ago and he couldn't see a problem. All he did was reset something and the Internet came on again. I then signed in to The DIS, and the Internet went down again almost instantly. I opened up another tab and it is working right now, but I don't know long it will last. As the TW guy said, it's hard to troubleshoot when they can't see any signs of a problem.

Anyway, if I suddenly disappear for an extended period of time -- or at a time you'd expect to see me, like on a Theme Week Monday -- you'll know it's because my Internet is down and I can't get to you!

Frustrating!

Frustrating!

Yes! I have had lots of problems with TW in the past, but the problem usually ends up being an outage on their end. This time, there was no visible problem on their end or on mine. The Internet just simply stopped working -- and still seems to be shaky! Anyway, you'll know that I didn't abandon the thread if I suddenly go missing.

I can see why they can't add the snow on the castle, but I don't understand why the can't add the icicle lights. Would they get in the way of the projections?

Even though I am a DL newbie I can't see that would pose a problem since at WDW the Castle has the icicles and the projections during the holiday season

I am glad I got to see the Winter Castle last year for the first time - it was beautiful and I loved all the holiday offerings - I actually loved the snow part the best - so I'm glad that there is at least that in a part of the 60th fireworks. But I'm excited that I get to go this year and see the 60th stuff too - so I will just be content with what we get I know this will be my last Disneyland trip for a few years, so I am just going to soak it all in and be happy that I get to be in Disneyland! Only 73 more days!


Here's my photos for this week's theme:


Our View of It's a Small World from our cushy seats for the parade (we went on the holiday tour):

These garlands were all around and inside of It's a Small World - they were my favorite! So bright and colorful and yet with the white garland - just so distinctive. I loved them!

I also loved the strings of lights hanging down on a lot of the decor on the ride:

Some of my photos from Jingle Cruise (I loved all the little details):

All in all - I wish my photos turned out better on this trip! But it was an amazing trip last year!

Have any of you taken the Holiday Time tour? If so - what did you think about it? If it's offered this December, I'd like to go on it.

P.S. I just ordered The Unofficial Guide to Disneyland 2016, which comes out today, from Amazon!

We took the holiday tour in 2011 or 2012 and loved it! I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I had the funds for it! It was enjoyable, informative, we got to the front on the line on a few rides and seating for the parade while drinking yummy hot chocolate and eating a gingerbread cookie.

In honor of the Holiday Season, Costco now has eggnog!
9-18-2015 and you can actually buy eggnog.

Thanks for the info on the Holiday Tour. I've been looking into it for our December trip.
