This is "A Christmas Fantasy" shot from the "its a small world" mall at Disneyland, this time during the evening. We started waiting before it hit dusk, and the parade began as the sun was setting until it became night. The Matterhorn provides a lovely background! Mickey, Minnie, Pooh, Eeyore, Anna and Elsa and so many other characters are part of the parade, along with other Disneyland performers. The reindeer, marching toy soldiers and gingerbread men are all here!

In Mousesteps Weekly #167, we talk all about Christmas at Disneyland, along with the Star Wars Season of the Force!

Our first stop is the "its a small world" mall to watch "A Christmas Fantasy". This is our favorite Christmas parade, featuring Mickey & Minnie, Donald, Chip & Dale, the Pooh characters, and many other characters and traditional favorites like the gingerbread men!

Next, we head to Big Thunder Ranch for a last look before the holidays end. We watched the "running of the goats" a few times this trip, as the goats will be moved off Disneyland property before Star Wars Land breaks ground.

Our next stop is Haunted Mansion Holiday, which we always enjoy during the holidays at Disneyland. Jack Skellington decks the halls, making the Haunted Mansion a little more festive!

It wouldn't be a Disneyland Christmas without the "its a small world" holiday overlay, with over 50,000 lights outside and holiday theming throughout the inside.

Next, we head to Tomorrowland for "Season of the Force". Our very favorite aspect of the Star Wars seasonal events (which may end in Spring, but no date has been announced) is Hyperspace Mountain, which is extremely popular now and for good reason. The Star Wars Launch Bay wasn't as much our thing, but it was also a popular guest location. We did enjoy the new Star Tours changes quite a bit.

The Galactic Grill food is good for photos, and the most popular souvenirs may have been the Tie-Fighter popcorn bucket and BB-8 sipper.

We met Spider-Man in his Disney Park U.S. debut (we had previously met him at Disneyland Paris) in the Super Hero HQ. Star Wars Launch Bay and Super Hero HQ are in the same building, and guests should usually be able to move up and down the stairs between them. We also met Thor, who showed us his Wookie noise!

Our final night was at an Annual Passholder anniversary event, where we enjoyed a snowfall on Main Street before heading back to Florida.

Recorded 11/22/15 Featuring Commentary from Denise Preskitt and Jeff Lange.
