Can't Miss Christmas Activities?

[amalone1013]

We're going down on a last minute, weekend trip in December to see the Holiday things. Darn APs, making us want to go all the time... We've never been before, and we fly in late on Friday and leave Sunday evening. What would be your Can' Miss Holiday Activities on that kind of trip? We were there in Sept and saw all of the nighttime shows except Star Wars, and we'll be back at the end of January too, so we're trying to figure out the specific Holiday stuff.

Because you’ll be able to hop, you can plan to see the highlights in each park!

We've had fun resort hopping also! The gingerbread houses at GF are fun to look at.

Definitely check out the resort decorations if you have time! It was one of the highlights of our week-before-Christmas trip last year. I also LOVED Hollywood Studios' decorations - more than MK I think They were just really cool.

Otherwise, the holiday storytellers around the World Showcase were probably my favorite thing. In particular: Norway (my favorite!), Japan, China, and Italy
Characters in holiday outfits were also really fun! Depending on when you're there, the resorts offer characters dressed in special outfits you can't find anywhere else.

I actually agree! I love MK cuz it's MK, but I adore old junk (particularly 40's era) and the HS decorations are so retro awesome!
