Christmas decorations are going up

[Park Hopper]

Christmas is arriving around the World -- Disney World, that is. My wife and I were at Epcot on Saturday (our 15th and final visit to this year's Food & Wine Festival) and we were excited to see that the park's Christmas trees were up and Christmas garlands had been strung over the entrance turnstiles. The beautiful tree at the end of the walkway leading to World Showcase is up and decorated, and so is the tree in the courtyard of the American Adventure. The rest of the decorations can't be far behind.

It may have been 80 degrees, but just seeing the decorations made it seem like the holidays. I'm sure decorations are going up in the other parks, as well. There's just no place like Disney during the Christmas holidays!
