I saw all the Disney characters, prince with their princesses, and elves, reindeer, snowmen and some others I can’t recall now. That parade was truly spectacular. I begged my parents to let me stay longer so we can ride more rides knowing that it was going to be my last day at Disneyland. Disneyland was about to close…
