Even Sleeping Beauty can’t rest with all of this awesomeness going on! The holidays at Disneyland are all about the details, people. Don’t worry, those icicles are secured with fairy magic.
Enjoy the holidays at the Disneyland Resort through January 8, 2011.
This is a Wordless Wednesday entry, but I tend to ramble.

There is no lack of art and culture in San Francisco, one of the best cities that America has to offer (no, I don’t work for their department of tourism), but should you want to see something off the beaten path then take a walk through Chinatown. You’re probably going there anyway.

This post is part of the UpTake Public Art Series. If you see an interesting piece of public art, snap a picture and send it in. We’ll feature it on UpTake!
We’ve been inspired! This series usually showcases various pieces of commissioned public art, and we’ll continue to do so, but for the next few weeks we’re going to look at some awesome street art, too.
