Jack Skellington At Disneyland
Karin and I took a quick trip up to Disneyland yesterday to check out the holiday decorations on main street and to see what they did with the Haunted Mansion for this Christmas season.

This was by far the highlight of our day, and was well worth the entrance price to Disneyland.

I asked Karin what she thought this man’s day typically consisted of, and she replied that we should be more concerend with what he was carrying around in his backpack. “With those sort of people, you never know what they’re packing,” she said to me. True…
