The Parade was wonderful although hearing the song repeat so many times was a little annoying but great the first few times, the parade it self was great. The Castle had me in awe the fireworks over the Castle with the Christmas music and different lighting affects was great and was in tears when the snow fell. The caroler's where also so wonderful. We have already decided to go back next year because Disneyland it self is great but during Christmas time there is nothing like it. Sorry to go on so much.

Then "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" segues back into the "Remember the Magic" song...with the chorus of "Merry Little Christmas" echoing in the background....and the grand finale....and the snow gently falling to "I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas"...Disneyland IS magic! And, may I highly recommend the hot chocolate at Carnation Cafe. Don't know if it was the company I was keeping, or just a fluke of a day, but it was truly the finest I have ever had!

Yes STIL; were it not for the *light-hearted* musical interlude I would not be able to see the fireworks for the tears. The parade chokes me up as well. Found myself watching video last night (oh how I am missing it this year) and crying over that too.
