Visit Disneyland Resort: MagicBand+

  Not too many people had  MagicBand+  at Disneyland Resort, from what I noticed, but that didn't stop us from getting them.   You can use the MagicBand+ to scan into the entry gates or scan your Lightning Lane passes.  No need to take out your phone and open up the Disneyland app or your photos app for a screenshot of your admission ticket or Lightning Lane pass.  It's easy to sync the MagicBand+ to everyone in your party through the Disneyland app. It's rechargeable, and one full charge is supposed to last 1-3 days, but we'd charge them at the end of each night.

Visit Charlotte: Speedway Christmas Lights at the Charlotte Motor Speedway


Last year, we spent part of the holidays in Charlotte, North Carolina, and we went to check out the Speedway Christmas Lights at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.

With over 5 million lights spanning the iconic Charlotte Motor Speedway, it was really neat to drive on the track itself as we watched the lights dance to synchronized music.  



You pay per vehicle and slowly traverse the speedway, passing by hundreds of festive displays and huge Christmas trees.  To view a short Reel of our experience click here.  
There is a part of the speedway where you can park and view the course from above.  It's quite a sight!
It was a nice way to wrap up the holidays!
