Imagine "The Christmas Song" as sung by Nat King Cole and that is my perfect Christmas feeling
How did this trip come about? Over the summer we were discussing Christmas (yup, we are weird like that) and both DMom & I lamented about last Christmas where we spent hours and hours in malls and wrapping gifts.
We are a traditionalist family and we have certain things we like to do around Christmas - but we decided shopping & wrapping were not among them.
In the 30 years we have been going to WDW we have never been there around the holidays. We flew in on Dec 30th a few years ago and spent New Years Eve at Epcot but it was a last minute trip and we didn't see many of the festive sights, mainly because I was very sick and it was very crowded!
So...this year, in lieu of gifts, our family decided to take a trip to WDW for Christmas! Well....not exactly FOR Christmas....BEFORE Christmas.
