Anyway, are there any Disneyland at XMAS time tips out there?

They are made about midmorning on weedays (Tues, Wed, Thurs. usually) and as soon as they are done they go on sale...they sell out quickly!! Candy Cane fuge...made from the broken pieces. Gingerbread Men at the Blue Ribbon Bakery Santa's Reindeer Roundup at Big Thunder...live reindeer, stage entertainment, games, coloring, cookie decorating for the kids (or the kids in heart!), character interaction. Can also visit and get a photo with Santa here. DCA also has Santa and photo op. The decorations, sights, sounds, smells are wonderful during the holiday season. So much to see and do and taste!! Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay and Small World Overlay...both worth seeing. The resort hotels too are decorated and have entertainment. Christmas tree lighting was held at 4:50 each day Fireworks conclude with "White Christmas" and snow on Main Street, New Orleans Square, and Small World Mall
