Bright sunshine. Sweat poured down the back of my neck. But I still heard those songs of winter wonderlands and that beat of the drummer boy. I kicked off the 2021 holiday season with a trip to Disneyland in Anaheim, California. This is much different than the holidays where I would spend my time tucked away inside wrapped in a thick fleece blanket, counting down the days until Santa slid down the chimney. Disneyland is full of palm trees, sun, sweat and amusement park rides all of which I align with the summer months.
