Thought I would do something different in terms of a trip report.

We were at the BWV from Dec. 18 to 23 for our second consecutive Christmas at Disney.

I will let the photos tell the story:wizard:

Day One ... Dec. 18

Beautiful! I love Disney at Christmas. Loved your photo/s of the castle. It is magestic anyway, but so much more so at Christmastime.

Glad you enjoyed!

The best part of this trip was watching my parents (who are 70 and 68) see the beauty of Disney at Christmas. It was the least we could do for the folks who introduced me to WDW some 27 years ago:eek:
 
UUGGGHHH!!! These truly lovely photos are so making me wish i could go at Christmas time. ONE day i will be there just hard with school schedules right now.

Thanks you so much for posting these and of course anymore would be appreciated.:worship:
 
Christmas is probably my favorite time to visit WDW.

We did 1 (yes ONE) attraction in 6 days ... Hall of Presidents in MK. This trip was all about the decorations.
 
We drove through to beat the snowstorm and arrived on 12/19. A lucky last minute call to MS and we were able to get a 1 bd room at BWV, boardwalk view for just the 1 night before transferring to the AKV kidani for our week long stay....

We were your neighbor downstairs on the 19th and saw your Christmas lights from our balcony! was it a grand villa?

Our Christmas visit was awesome, hope yours was too! It was our 1st visit as DVC owners and exceeded our very expectation!
