Inevitably, our favorite episodes were those that were about a new attraction or some event that was taking place in Disneyland.
My grandfather and I talked often about the time when we would visit Disneyland in Anaheim, California, and see everything for ourselves. Sadly, that trip never occurred due to many reasons. This year, my daughter, Liz, and I were talking about a place to spend a few vacation days, and I suggested that maybe both of us should meet up at Disneyland. This would be a first-time visit for both of us.
We were not newbies to Disney parks. Both of us have been to Walt Disney World so many times that we cannot even remember the exact number.
Somehow, the lure of seeing Disneyland intrigued us. Perhaps it was its mystical history or maybe even its direct link to Walt Disney, but visiting Disneyland seemed like a brand-new adventure. So we asked ourselves, would Disneyland be any more special than any other Disney park? We booked a trip to the Disneyland resort for the middle of November. We anticipated that this would be a time of the year when the weather would be predictably warm and the skies sunny.
Furthermore, we also knew that the Disney properties began decorating for the December holidays shortly after their Halloween celebration. All of our assumptions proved to be true, and we delightfully arrived two days after the beginning of the annual Disney Festival of Holidays.
