Another little trifle of a series, hailing from December 1963. It’s Christmas at the park, and The Matterhorn is adorned with The Christmas Star. Let’s zoom in for a close look at all the doohickies on the star:
Below the earth, we see all kinds of strange things swimming and growing in liquid space:
Compared to all the bling strewn around the castle today, it is difficult to imagine that it ever looked this plain around the holidays:
The Tiki Room also seems to have escaped any holiday decorations:
For you compare and contrast types, here’s a more recent shot from a similar angle:
I love this shot, taken as the photographer was exiting the park. As twilight begins, this particular post ends. Hope you enjoyed!

Thanks for showing the Tiki Room Dave. I have always considered it a Mom's haven. I would sit in the back row on the padded benches and catch a cat nap.
I have found this blog on Savannah which is just starting but I thought you might like the photography:

Great post today and I agree, that last shot is a gem. Thought about you last night as I was catching up on some shows I recorded. Ghost Hunters investigated a home in Savannah!
Sky Princess - Thanks for the link! What a cool idea of 91 days in diff cities.
Connie - Do you remember which home?
That Castle shot is marvelous but where is the plastic snow on the roof???
Dave, these are beautiful. Thank you so much. A great thing to see after a long hard day.
