My family went to Disneyland the first week of November. It's a trip that was a year and a half in the making. Originally we were suppose to go in April, but circumstances bumped it back. And I'm glad it was, for many reasons. But one interesting fact about visiting Disneyland during the first week of November is that you get to see park make a gradual change from Halloween to Christmas. Bit by bit.
By the end of the week these pumpkins were gone, and around the Railroad station on Main Street there were ornaments and wreaths.
One day half of main street would suddenly have decorations, and the next day the rest of the street had a Christmas flair.
Windows that were bare would suddenly show Mickey nutcrackers.
It was fun seeing the change.
And it was nice that the Holiday version of It's a Small World, where they switch between the main song and Jingle Bells, or Jingle Shells in the mermaid section, was completed the day before we left, fresh with Santa references and lights.
My big regret was not going on the Haunted Mansions, the Nightmare Before Christmas. A whole five days in the park and I didn't go. How is that possible? I also managed to not ride Splash Mountain and Alice in Wonderland.
