Another Visit To The Parks

I had to go back to the Parks because I had missed a few things and...well...I just love it there, LOL. This little guy by Mater's Jam-BOO-ree is adorable!



I tried several times to get a decent shot of the window displays in Ramon's but the lighting was never quite right. This one reminded me of Sugar Skull art and I'm willing to bet there is a hidden Mickey somewhere in there!


I completely missed this little guy the last time I was there.


It wasn't dark enough to see but the trees are full of purple lights. It looks great!


Believe it or not, I did not notice the bats flying out of the tower on my last visit. Let it be known that I would make a terrible eye witness!



This is such a cute idea!




Now we are at Disneyland and I am sitting on the upper level of the Hungry Bear restaurant. I noticed the cranes and just sat there, staring. I wondered to myself if it was "good show" that the tops of the buildings could be seen above the trees and then realized that by the time Galaxy's Edge opens, the trees will be tall enough to block this view from the Hungry Bear.
At least I hope so!


After I ate, I examined the new path that will lead guests to Galaxy's Edge.


As I was leaving the Hungry Bear, I stopped to take a few pics of this building. Yes, it's a store but I recently learned that it is a very special store. Not because of the merchandise contained within but because this little building has been here since Disneyland opened in 1955! This are was originally part of the Indian Village and at that time, it was used as a trading post. Pretty cool, no?



By this time, I'm getting tired and ready to go home so a couple of quick pics of the Haunted Mansion and then I'm headed home!

Disneyland Trash Cans

Image
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...
