Christmas Time at Trader Sam's 2011

A trip to Trader Sam's was in order.  One of my best friends that used to work on the Jungle Cruise back in the day was in town and hadn't seen Trader Sam's yet.  So we headed out to the Disneyland Resort.

I love Trader Sam's because of my love for Tiki and Disney and that it also has artifacts from 2 of my 3 favorite movies Pirates and Indiana Jones.

We arrived to Trader Sam's all decked out for Christmas....  Hawaiian Christmas music was playing.

It was snowing in the volcano windows and when you ordered one of the special Holiday drinks there was a snow storm.

The Tikis were festive

Shrunken Head Christmas Tree

The Red Nosed Zebra

More Snow

The cannibals stocking were hung with care

Trader Sam even has a naughty and nice list

So head on down to Trader Sam's before the Holidays are over.

Tiki Christmas Link of the Week (More from Trader Sam's Holiday Drink Recipes))

I don't appologize for all the Disney love..It is one of the main things that got my feet wet into Tiki in the first place.  After all it was my  1980's Adventureland Tiki Necklace that started my dipping into Tiki waters......So here is another link from Disney Parks blog concerning  Trader Sam's that has some of the Holiday drink recipes. Still need to get out there to try the Red nosed Zebra.
