World of Color Dinner Package

A good friend of mine was in town recently and since we had not seen each other in approximately 10 years, we met for dinner at DCA. But not just any dinner, oh no. She treated me to a World of Color dinner package.

Let me tell you something right off the bat - if you have not does this, DO IT. Everyone should do this at least once. I will tell you all about it but first let's start at the beginning. I was to meet my friend at the Wine Country Trattoria but the parade was in full swing when I got to DCA. I squeezed my way through the crowd and got as far as I could go but I had to wait for the parade to end. While I was waiting, I was looking at the Paradise Pier lagoon and thought to myself, "Gee, that would be a nice shot." so I whipped out my phone and took the following picture. I shared it on Instragram but added a filter and the result is the second photo.


I like them both equally.


 The parade was coming to an end so I snapped a couple of pics and a short video to occupy my mind because I was anxious to meet up with my friend!




Without a moment to spare, we made our way to the restaurant and were seated. I ordered the Italian Wedding Soup but forgot to take a picture of it because I devoured it instantly. Hey, I was hungry!

I ordered the filet mignon and let me tell you, it was PERFECT!
Melt in your mouth like butter goodness!


Dinner came with a dessert sampler! No, I didn't eat all of those.
Half was for me and half for my friend, Lisa. I don't remember the exact names of these desserts but I do remember that they were oh so yummy.


Side note: Every time I preview this page, many of the photos are not cented the way I want them to be and it's very frustrating! I have no idea how this is going to look once it's published so I just wanted you to know that if things don't line up, it's not because I'm losing it, LOL. Blogger just doesn't want to cooperate with me!

After dinner, we were presented with our tickets for the show.


We had a little time to kill so Lisa went shopping.


And then we found our viewing spot and waited...




Something told me that I should put my phone away so I took one more brief video and then got ready for the show to begin.


After the show, we were soaked! It was a great night!
If you are wondering about the cost, dinner runs $45.35 for adults but Annual Passholders get a discount so go make your reservations now.

Disneyland Trash Cans

Yes Folks, trash cans! Do you know where these two beauties are? You'll find them as soon as you come through the gates at Disneyland. This should be easy to figure out - Adventureland! How about these? Hmmm??? New Orleans Square! Here's a trick question: Which two lands share the same style of trash can??? You can find these two in Frontierland. Now we're in Fantasyland. Still in Fantasyland but wait!!! The area around It's A Small World has it's very own trash can theme! Tomorrowland!!! OK all you hot shots... WHERE is this MYSTERY trash can???? Do these look familiar? They should. Critter Country has the same theme as Frontierland. I know what you're thinking...you're thinking that I've already posted these and I'm trying to trick you. HA! I have not already posted these! If you look closely, these differ slightly from the trash cans in New Orleans Square. THESE are in the area next to the Haunted ...

Getting back into the swing of things...

Image
It's been a rough couple of days... I came back to work only to be told that I will no longer have a job as of February 1st! Ya, it was a big shocker to me, too. That being said, everything else is back to "normal" and I will begin posting on a regular basis again. Below is a little video I put together taken on my last night in Florida. There is a wonderful little town called Ocala, which I dearly love. I am providing links to two sites, one here and one here , so you can have a little information about the place. OOPS! I just realized that I had posted some of the previous video earlier in the week. Oh well.. at least this one contains new footage, LOL. Peter said I tired him how SO MUCH that I can't go back to Florida for at least two years. hee hee hee

Upside down Christmas Trees?

Image
We interrupt our Disneyland visit to bring you a few pics from Tom's Farms . Ever heard of it? Unless you live in Southern California, probably not. It's a neato keen place and I really dig it. I had not been there in 10 years so it was high time I paid them a visit. They have tons of outdoor seating and it's a great place to people watch. I had a great bacon cheeseburger and then walked off my lunch by window shopping. A life sized Santa! (And he looks a bit creepy the way he's standing there. "Hey baby.." Ever seen an upside down Christmas tree? Me either! I decided to take pictures of all the trees... Look! Another upside down Christmas tree. Here's a twist - HALF of an upside down Christmas tree hung on the wall! I kinda like it. These are ginormous ornaments hanging from the ceiling. I'm already planning a return trip to Tom's Farms. I've always wanted a sleigh bed. Ain't he cute??? There is a big can...
