Anyone been to Epcot Holidays Around the World this year?

[amycishere]

Haven't seen any reviews!!! Going in the middle of Dec and am doing it for the very first time!

Does anyone have an extra Epcot Holiday map they could mail me? Would REALLY appreciate it!

This year we listened to the lady from Germany. The 2 teen ds were complaining she was boring and they left. We joined them shortly thereafter. DH and I listened to the 3 Kings in Mexico. I really liked them and one little boy took his picture with them after the performance. We have done Italy last year.

This year I've seen Papa Noel in Canada and Father Christmas in the UK. They were both very good and the kids (and adults) seemed to enjoy them. You can have your picture taken with them after they finish their "performance."

i saw papa noel from canada (he made me say cheese log, hehe)

also saw pere noel from france

i enjoyed both of them. i think i liked canada more though. i wish i had had more time to see more of the storytellers, but my schedule was tight. i only had that one half day in epcot after thanksgiving, so i saw those 2 since they fit my schedule.

I'm really looking forward to this as well! Has anyone on here ever done all the countries in one shot? Is this even possible??

Count me in too! I'm also interested in any pictures that someone has. This is my first holiday trip to the World. We'll be there the 29th thru January 2nd and I'm so excited to finally be able to see the decorations.

I don't know if we can do this in one day(probably 2), but here is how I am going to try & see them. Some I will have to backtrack, the times just did not work out. Of course if we stick around for pictures, that will throw my schedule off

Canada – 12pm
France – 12:30pm
Japan – 12:50pm
America – 1:20pm
Italy – 2pm
Germany – 2:20pm
China – 3:15pm
Norway – 3:50pm
Mexico – 4:45pm
United Kingdom – 5:25pm
Morocco – 6:20pm

I took an entire day out of my trip last year to do this. It's possible to hit them all, if you plan beforehand. I visited Epcot earlier in the week and was able to get the schedule...or you can check Steve's site. I took pics as they were speaking, so can't say if this is possible while waiting for photo ops. Also, I didn't stop for a full lunch, just ate on the fly. I made this sound really stressful, but it wasn't actually. That said - If this is your only day at Epcot, don't even try to see them all!

Enjoy your trip!
