We have trees that turn leaves here in socal, and there is no mistaking that late October breezy chill we get every year. It's nowhere near as dramatic as elsewhere, but it's good enough for me to absolutely adore fall decor. When we were discussing wedding plans my first idea was to marry in October and do fall colors. It's still my favorite time of year, which is why we plan to be in the thick of falling leaves in Chicago and NY in 2 weeks!

I believe it is just plastic snow that bugs me. As for the Dreidel song, that's a whole 'nother thread....

Hope they're not having an Indian Summer! ;-)

Welll, remember, this is Disneyland and once you walk through the gates, you leave the reality world behind.

I get you're bugged by the plastic icicles and snow, but if some guy walking around in a mouse costume does not bug you, or a girl in a large wig and large shoes that flies in on a wire, well, what's a little dusting of magic?

It's all about the magic, at least I think that's the goal, right?

Now those huge plastic pumpkins......

I wonder if everyone has a "magic threshold". I know I have one, where I'd stop and say "now that's just dumb." Hard to delineate, but I know it when I see it...

Well, when I was looking at my pics from DL, I got a few of Tink on the Parade of Dreams float and thought, Holy S***, look at that horrible wig and man her feet are effing huge! Of course, anatomically, Tink is a little out of proportion, kinda like a Barbie would be in real life.

Last I heard it was a woman. But under that mask, who would no the difference?

I don't think gender is of much importance in the big head characters, so what's the diff with Tink?

Actually, this Tink was a woman, on top of the float. No mask, just a huge wig and HUGE shoes on her feet.

The Tink that flies down from the Matterhorn, who knows? A stunt guy? All I know is I'd never do that!
