Disneyland-December 11, 2005 - Pictures (lots)

[WebmasterMaryJo]

Note that when you click on most of these pics you'll get a bigger picture.

I went to the Disneyland Resort on Sunday, 11 December. I could only stay for a little while, but it was so beautiful I had to take some pictures. I was there for a little over 3 hours - just enough to have to pay $2 at the Downtown Disney parking.

Approaching the Disneyland entrance you can see a big golden ornament.

Christmas accents are all over the resort.

And music, too.

The tree is all decorated in gold and topped with the 50's Mickey.

Carnation Cafe is nestled in a little alley off of Main Street between the Watch Shop & the Bakery.

Coke Corner is a nice place to go grab a hot dog and listen to the live piano playing.

The castle looks so beautiful all decorated in gold. (Click for larger pic)

While waiting for your pictures to be developed, you can relax, or color, or play with Chip and Dale, dance with Goofy, or decorate cookies and eat them.

I MISS DISNEYLAND!! Thank you so much for sharing all those wonderful pictures. The one thing we did not do was take enough pictures. It was really hard to stop and take them when there was just so much to see and do.

Great Pictures,Mary Jo! I guess thenext best thing to being there is feeling like I am. Thanks for sharing!

 

[karylrocks]

Thanks for the pics!

I was also there Sunday morning. I have decided that the best way to visit DL is to just go for the first 3 hours every day, and only come back if you really want to see the fireworks or a parade. It is so (relatively) quiet in the morning!

Great pictures, thanks for sharing. We never take enough pictures!

We just got back last night. 4 days in the parks (Dec 13-17th). I did not think the crowds were too bad.
