Awesome Janet ^^^ You can't beat a real drawbridge, a walk through diorama, and that elegant castle.
I always need a bit of time to adjust to the smaller castle. But I don't think Katie ever got over it. We'd be at the train station and she'd say "But I can't even see the castle." We'd be on the Silly Swings or something and she'd say "But I can't see the castle". We talked about what we want to do next year and she'd say "The castle is puny, but I want to go back to Disneyland!" 
Mom2rtk, I'm loving your Christmas photos! I've been in Disney Christmas heaven with your latest posts on Flickr, lol. You've really upped the standard on this year's shots, big time!!:

Traylorc, that Make Way for the Royal Carriage is beautifully done!!![]()
Beautifully composed...I love this shot!
I got a little bored standing there waiting for the fireworks to start so I tried some different compositions. I found myself wishing I had my long lens with me to really zoom in on some of the details.
