I absolutely love this time of year. Was there last year over veterans day weekend and it was a blast seeing everything. It was my first time experiencing the Christmas vibe at DHS, MK, and AK. We plan to return closer to thanksgiving one year so we can do the full holiday tour of Epcot

I thought I read somewhere that they never take the 'icicles' off the castle.

They are added and removed every year.
That’s why the dreaded, ”Crane is up in MK,” threads appear at least twice yearly.

Leaving for WDW in 9 days, I cannot wait to see all the Christmas decorations!

A bit old considering there is no garland over main street anymore.

Disney is doing a new ABC Special about decorating the parks for the holidays that will air December 20th on ABC.

I so miss the garland hanging over Main Street, it was so beautiful!

The point is that the video shows how they do it. It is quite fantastic and impressive. Disney Imagineers never cease to amaze me.

They have a tree out front and some random decorations, but overall, not much of a Christmas feel from what I recall.

When does the crane usually go up/come down? Last time I personally remember seeing the crane was when SDMT was being built.
