Disneyland! Christmas on Main Street - Randomland
Disneyland at Christmas is a wonderful thing. Since 1955, the Park has been decorated for the holidays, but in recent years it has really raised the bar in becoming a Winter Wonderland in the midst of Southern California’s eternal summer.
We visited the park last Christmas to show off some of the many Yuletide decorations, and this year we return with special emphasis on everyone’s hometown, Main Street USA. From LED lights to moat trees, artificial snow to sincere smiles, let’s take a quick stroll down the entrance to Walt Disney’s original Magic Kingdom. On the way we’ll see gas lamps, souvenirs, and one heck of a magical spectacle on Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle.
Oh! And let’s not forget the parade! A Christmas Fantasy!
For more Disneyland at Christmas, see last year’s video here:
We have all kinds of other video adventures (including Disneyland) on this channel, as well as a lot more wacky stuff on our website at http://www.livefastdiepoor.com
Visit us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/livefastdiepoor or pop over to our instagram (@livefastdiepoor) where we’ve posted tons of pictures from Disneyland throughout the holiday season. Subscribe for more videos, and we’ll see you in Randomland!
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
