Whoo! Is that Hatter my Hatter? You mentioned him being there Friday... I'm guessing yes.
I love my Hatter's.

Can't wait for more.

Great photos Little. I always have like the howHatter and Alice go the extra way to make us guest laugh. I also love Ariel's new dress but I haven't yet go t a good shot of her with my camera yet. I keep getting the back side of her. But this last time I was there I really got a good shot of Cinderella and one of my best I have ever got.

Excellent TR! I love your character interactions, characters are one of my favorite parts of Disneyland! You're so lucky to get so much interation with Alice and the Hatter! they're always so cute and funny! I'm looking forward to the rest of the report!

Black Friday (part 3)

After the parade we stopped by the Haunted Mansion Holiday, my favorite holiday ride.

I take this same shot every year. And I never get tired of it.

My night shots usually turn out blurry anyway so I decided to deliberately shake my camera for some of the shots just to see how they'd turn out.

Is it just me, or does Main Street look bigger at night?

So later on Jenny had to go home and rest. Luckily my friend Kait was off at about the same time (she works as a character host) so she came to keep me company for the rest of the night. We watched the evening parade together at the front of the park, then once it passed we ran down to the other end of the park to see it exit at Small World.

My favorite part of this video is when we shouted to Anastasia that we loved her and Drizella yelled back "No you don't, you love ME!!"

After that, Small World was pretty much walk-on so we rushed on to get a boat.

Nobody in front...

Nobody in back...

WE GOT OUR OWN BOAT!

My rule is to go on Small World once a year. And it's usually the Holiday overlay. Only once in the past 5 years or so have I been on the regular version.

The castle just dazzled me. I had seen plenty of photos but it was so amazing in person.

Coming next - Enchanted at the El Capitan

The floors have machinery that widens the street!

awsome trip report, i love the christmas parade

[BassBone]

Great TR! You have an eye for photography.

[Melonballer]

I've learned something today. I've learned that if you are at the places where the parade enters and exits, that you get more character interaction.

Thanks for the great pics, report and video.

Fun report and great pictures! I love the way that the Mad Hatter and Alice interact with guests and with each other. Thanks so much for taking the time to share with us.
