Soaring on a Sunday

Gingerbread House

How's your weekend going? Been a bit drizzly here in San Diego, but that doesn't stop the fun! This photo was taken at a Disney event during the holidays. Disneyland, just 1-2 hours north of San Diego, in Anaheim is a lot of fun during this time of year. During "Holidays at Disneyland", the park is lit up with beautiful holiday decorations, a beautiful Main Street Christmas tree, thousands of Christmas lights and a special holiday fireworks show. Something you don't want to miss!
