Welp, kind of sad Screamin' was closed, but otherwise the trip was great (well, except that my initial flight down was cancelled...). Park was relatively empty, I don't think anything had a wait longer than half an hour or so, except Radiator Springs which we just fast-passed and single ridered. It was actually my first time down there during Christmas, I might only go down during Christmas from now on (except when I really want to see the traditional Haunted Mansion). It was also my first time on the new Big Thunder Mountain, the new effects are awesome (and the track feels much faster and smoother than I remembered), great stuff!

Guests visiting Disneyland park will now be able to visit a miniature version of Arendelle from the hit Disney animated feature, “Frozen,” when Storybook Land Canal Boats reopens this weekend. Our chief photographer, Paul Hiffmeyer, got a special preview of this new featurette this morning, and brought back these photos for Disney Parks Blog readers!

I was wondering what it took the place of, but now found out the Windmills were removed and saved

"for the future" one site reported. That's good. And this Arendelle set up looks wonderful, including

Elsa's castle up in the mountains.

I'm amazed it doesn't happen more often. I don't think Walt could have ever envisioned his park hosting so many guests. I'm very curious to see how they handle crowd control going forward, as it's not like they have tons of room to re-model all the walkways to accommodate more foot traffic.

I'm heading down to Disneyland in less than two weeks! It'll be a lot more fun with Jacob now that he's a tiny bit older. I don't think we'll do the storybook boats and he wiggles like nothing else, but the animal cages on Casey Junior should work!
