First of all, we are going to travel back to the night before.
Why?
Well because there are some new window displays at the World of Disney store in Downtown Disney. But to try and get the best pictures without glare, I had to visit World of Disney at night.
Coming upon a section of one of the themed window displays.
Looking through the second window panel, we can easily see that it's a Buena Vista Street themed window
Looking at the Buena Vista Street themed window from further back
Further down, we can see that there is another window displayed with the theme of Main Street U.S.A.
There is even a firework effect
Since I am here, I decided to go inside Disney California Adventure
We can see a bit of Christmas has sprung up at Radiator Springs
Visiting Buena Vista Street's Elias and Company
I see Cars Land is already starting to get their Christmas Time. Yup, soon we will be decked out too for another Christmas season
Heading out with one last look at the themed windows at World of Disney
The cool water effect at the Buena Vista Street fountain
I head home, watch television before going to sleep at 2:30 a.m.
zzz zzz zzz
7:00 a.m. the next day, I get up and slowly get ready so I can head back to the Disneyland Resort for my pictorial update.
Man, not only is it overcast, but it is quite cool. And it stays this way for majority of the morning I am at the Disneyland Resort. Not until I am walking out of the Disneyland Mickey and Friends parking structure that the sun started to peek out from behind the clouds.
First stop, Disney California Adventure
Some people casually walk through Buena Vista Street after they enter
Others are so excited that they can't control themselves
With it being overcast, some of the lights around Disney California Adventure were still on, like the Silly Symphony Swings
Golden Zephyr is finally back up and running
They are getting ready to visit Nature's Wonderland - Ornament Valley
Day shot of the Christmas tree star on top of the leaning tower of tires at Luigi's Flying Tires
As you can see, the poles on the right have been installed for the Christmas wreaths and garland that will be strung across Route 66
Another new Disability Access Service kiosk has been placed near A Bug's Land.
So now DAS kiosks can be found at:
• Info Booth on Buena Vista Street
• A Bug's Land
• Route 66 near Luigi's Flying Tires
• Paradise Pier near California Screamin' and King Triton Carousel
Flik's Fun Fair is getting ready for Christmas time
Minni's Fly Girls Charter Airlines has ceased flights at the moment.
Minnie's Fly Girls Charter Airlines logo is still on the control tower
As well as the luggage.
Hopefully they will return because I always like that show

Now it's time to head to Disneyland
Disneyland ... where Halloween Time is still in place
Taped queue for City Hall
It's been quite cool that snow has formed on the rooftops of Sleeping Beauty Castle
"STARBUCKS IS NOW BEING SOLD INSIDE THE MARKET HOUSE"
Seriously, she was roaming the sidewalk and street, shouting out "STARBUCKS IS NOW BEING SOLD INSIDE THE MARKET HOUSE"
Is the Market House not meeting quota?
"That's right! You do what I tell you and you get in there and get some expensive coffee"
After some time, she is rotated inside somewhere and another Cast Member comes outside holding the menu and Starbucks cup in her hand
And you know what she does?
Nothing!
She stands and looks pretty :)
Of course she answers questions from the Guests
I decided to look inside and ... is this busy enough for the Market House?
Did they want continuous full queue of Guests wanting coffee?
The shrubs along Sleeping Beauty Castle's forecourt are getting their lights for Christmas Time
Some work being done at the Pirates of the Caribbean exit
Snow Mountain, meet Snow Castle
Hand rails attached to handrails of this staircase

Railings will never been complete, as long as their is safety left in the world
"it's a small world" closed for its Holiday make over

Mickey movin' to the goovin' beat of the Disneyland Band
Somewhere in this lush jungle lies an ancient temple ruin
Recently there was a repaving project in the Pinocchio section of the Mickey and Friends Parking Structur with a new redesigned layout
I have seen cars exit from here more now than I did before.
Well that will conclude today's pictorial
