December 8: Holiday Disney Adventure

Today was our last chance to visit Disneyland and California Adventure before the busy holiday season.  Being season pass holders, we've learned to steer clear of the parks during the last couple of weeks in December, due to how packed it gets.  Plus, we're blocked out, so there isn't much of an incentive to go anyway. 

We started off the day at Disneyland right at opening, mainly to beat the crowds.  This seems to work great for us because we get to ride the busiest attractions before the lines get too long.  Now, I had made it a point to visit California Adventure today, since they had ornaments featuring the Three Caballeros (while we were there, the Brodster was able to mail his letter to Santa - look at us, running errands at DCA!).  I was so excited to see that Donald was doing a meet-n-great at the Viva Navidad! area - with the sombrero!  Ah, way too cute! 

By then, we were all set to go home and make it back in time for the 49ers vs. Seahawks game.  Pretty successful Sunday. :)
