We are going to spend Christmas at Disneyland this year. Now this will be the first trip to the magical kingdom for my 2 younger children. They have pretty much jabbered on incessantly about this trip for the last 2 1/2 months. I'm ok with that, because I understand that they are really really anxious to experience this place.
I personally love Disneyland. I am transported to another world when I walk through the gates. I'm a kid again and everything is ok while we are there. I have never been to California adventure park though. So this will be a first time for me and the wife in that respect. My oldest has been there a ton of times, and he swears up and down that it's every bit as good as Disneyland itself. Time will tell.
My middle boy (Cameron) is celebrating his 12th birthday on the 27th so this is sort of a 2 for 1. He gets a cool B-day present (visiting the park) and cool presents while being at the park, since the whole family is going. Mom and Dad along with my Sister and her family and my little brother (not really little 6' and 36).
So I'm packing and planning and a little more excited than I should be for my age I guess :) Now if they could just import some snow to Anaheim I think it could be a truly perfect Christmas ..........

I too havenot been to the California locale. I used to live in Tampa so I was at the Disney resorts all the time. Have fun!!!!! Are you getting past passes? You soooooo should. They are worth it.
That's neat, I've never been on an actual vacation for Christmas... just to visit family. Keep trying to talk the parents into a cruise or something but no luck.
Have a blast! Can't wait to hear about it when you get back.
we got the 5 day package...hoppers between the parks and then a one day to either universal studio or knotts berry farm... gonna hit universal i think since they are doing whoville for the holidays...AND we made sure to get a suite so that the kids can be as far away as possible while still being in plain sight :)
Have a great trip and enjoy yourself. I have only been to Disneyworld and I am a fanatic. I love the adventure and everything about the place. Disney is magic and everything is fun. I bet Christmas is extra special. Hope you take pictures to share.
Have a great time!
Lots and Lots of pictures...I will post a bunch of them when we get back
I know you will probably never see this comment, since it is on an old post, but good for you! I love Disneyland, have probably been there about a hundred times! Been going since I was a babe, and still go every time I visit California.
(I am stuck in Texas now)
