AKV Holiday Decorations?

[Granny]

I tried the search and wasn't successful so I thought I'd try a quick question. We are booked for a stay at Jambo House Dec 1-5 and I was wondering how "Christmassy" the resort feels?

Given the theming of the resort, I wasn't sure how much decoration they have. Anyone have any comments or pictures to share?

Thanks...

According to the Disney decorators, Disney started cutting back on decorations a couple of years ago.

The resorts that have the most decorations are the non DVC resorts, deluxe resorts have more, values, less.

The co-located DVC resorts, BWV, BCV, VWL, and Jambo benefit from the BWI, BC, WL, and AKL decorations.

I think that one of the crafts that was available to do was to decorate an ostrich egg as a Christmas ornament. I didn't do it, but if they have it to do this year, I intend to.

Jambo will have large Christmas tree in lobby and a number of other decorations (been at AKV at that time last two years).

Any idea when these decorations go up?
We will be there the week of Thanksgiving.

Thank you for the information about AKL/AKV decorations. I wasn't sure if they downplayed the Christmas decorating in keeping with the theming of the resort.

Looking forward to our December stay there.

Here's a link to AKL/AKV photos from the Photography board Granny. It starts out right away with pictures from Christmas a few years ago. I didn't go back thru all of it but I think there are more later on too.
