“To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past...and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.” - Walt Disney

25 Days - 14

Day 14
 
It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like...

Los Feliz Five & Dime invites guests in.
 
 
 
As you start down the street be sure to glance over at the Chamber of Commerce before heading into Los Feliz Five and Dime to get you Mickey ear hat. At the Five and Dime they have a wide assortment of ears and other hats to choose from.
 
Mickey or Minnie Santa Hats or festive shirts.
 
Snowflakes and winter twigs decorate the displays
As you travel through the shops you work your way into Elias & Co., a throw back to the bygone age of department stores (before malls and mega-stores).  Elias & Co. is broken into different departments, including the children's shop, the ladies/young women's area and the men's department. It also sports ice crystal covered trees atop the displays.
 
 
The normally classy upstairs display area has been made merry with the addition of garland and a Christmas tree.  The Rocketeer normally up there must be out helping St. Nick deliver presents.
 
 
The Jewelry Department has been converted into a meet & greet area for Santa Claus, with his elves standing by. Be sure to get a photo with the big guy.
 
 
More winter twigs decorate the ledge above the main doors of Elias & Co.
As we step out into the main plaza of Buena Vista Street from the Elias & Co. we will see more and more holiday decorations. Wreaths on the side of the buildings and garland on the light poles.
 
 
Come back tomorrow for more of Buena Vista Street holidays.
