Two Seasons Clashing - The DIS Discussion Forums

I found an interesting photo blog that shows the Christmas decorations going up at DL and DCA. I love seeing the snow on the castle and water in the moat! Be certain to check out the last photo...it shows the Halloween decor in the forefront with Sleeping Beauty castle decked out with snow in the background!

Last year I was there and one day there was nothing, the next the light poles had garland and strings of bulbs went between the I can't imagine how much work it is to get the park switched over.

Thanks for the pics.

I thought it was neat seeing the construction. I haven't seen pics for a while. I wonder what that octagon tower is at the mermaid ride.

Yeah as we were leaving the park wednesday night to head to the totp party we noticed the snow covered castle. Looked silly next to the halloween decor.

LOL, that's pretty funny. I was wondering how they managed to end Halloween celebration on Nov. 1 and still manage to have Christmas in full swing a short time after. Kind of messes with the illusion for the poor folks visiting during this time, though. Especially since Halloween isn't even officially until tomorrow! Oh well. I guess you could look at it as the whole resort going for some kind of 'Nightmare Before Christmas' theme.

Mickey's ToT Party should be interesting tomorrow. People will be visiting treat stations in A Bug's Land while looking at giant Christmas lights and ornaments.
