Christmas Time Before Thanksgiving Time at the Disneyland Resort

Christmas Time is well underway at the Disneyland Resort.
And as you will see, with the Parks in Holiday mode, not a whole lot to "report" on.
We'll just wander the Parks a bit


Starting off at Disneyland today.
Have a hunch that I need to check something out in this Park before a lot of people show up in that particular area


Making my way down Main Street U.S.A.




First stop is Space Mountain
But not to ride it....




... but to check out the exit.

But why the exit?
Didn't you already cover this before?

Why yes I did.
But you will soon see some new things that have been added to the exit that weren't there before.

I wanted to check out the exit before Guests got here.
Luckily for me, Space Mountain was delayed a bit on opening, so it gave me a chance to get some shots






New benches have been placed








Decorative plates above the emergency exit doors




The darker grey on the bottom portion of the wall
That's there to protect the wall from getting damaged with holes from wheelchairs and electric convenience vehicle




Big Hero 6 Meet and Greet










Sleeping Beauty Castle


You would think Disney would be a pro when it comes to force prospective


So I never understand why this garland that's on this spire is the same size as the rest of the Castle's garland.
I would imagine that as it goes up the spire, the garland would get smaller


Over in New Orleans Square, as work continues on the Royal Courtyard, they have covered up the entire entry way.
Previously, only the gate portion was covered.
Now it from the top of the arch, to the bottom


To get a Fast Pass for Haunted Mansion Holiday, you must...
1) Board the Disneyland Railroad
2) Get off on the 4th stop.
3) Exit the station and it will be on your left side

....


...
Or you can just follow this sign which will lead you to the Fast Pass


The Fantasyland Fruit cart tents have returned




For Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, they had this check in counter outside near the back side Sleeping Beauty Castle.
I didn't step inside the store to see if something was going on inside


I see Carthay!


It appears as though this horse is getting into the "Frozen" mania with the braided blond hair


The Disneyland band playing Christmas music in Town Square




You can be Anna with your brown hair








With the Jingle Cruise this Holiday season, the tunnels still show the Jungle Cruise attraction poster

You know what though...

I wonder if the Haunted Mansion poster is being displayed while Haunted Mansion Holiday is taking place.


Heading inside Disney California Adventure


Mad T Party is about to come to an end at the end of November

Hollywood Land will be transformed with a Frozen theme






Along with the Character Close Up being used as a Meet and Greet for Frozen, and the Muppet Vision 3D being used for a Sing-A-Long, supposedly an ice skating rink will take place inside Stage 17






These Nutcrackers are everywhere this season










The snowflake lights have received garland to hide the tape that holds it to the lamp post


Last Sunday, gusts of wind came through the Disneyland Resort.
And a strong enough gust came right through Radiator Springs and knocked the top half off the hubcap Christmas Tree that used to stand on the left side of the Courthouse


I am not a fan of Operation Playtime featuring the Green Army Men
But because the car has a Christmas tag, *snap*, got a picture

Since I am in the area, I am going to hang out for a bit and watch one of my favorite Holiday offerings at Disney California Adventure

Viva Navidad






















Donald stares as the dancers embrace in a "kiss"












She may have a prettier dress, but I dance way better




Don't think I know what you are thinking!


Girls please!
Leave the drama behind the gates

















That will conclude today's pictorial

Thanks for stopping by and checking it out

Until Next Time..
