Also be sure to check out other resorts' Christmas decorations, especially Grand Floridian, Yacht and Beach Club, Wilderness Lodge and Animal Kingdom Lodge. The regular rate for Pop Century is $82 per night or $94 for preferred rooms (50s, 60s, and 70s buildings), so that sound like a pretty good deal.

Do not miss the Osborne lights. They are so amazing. The Very Merry Christmas Party is also great. Hot cocoa and "snow" in Florida is fascinating to even the kids. hahaha

You should have a great time as crowds are usually low around this time of year. Although you may be a weekend early, one of the interesting things to see (if you are into this) is the filming of the WDW Christmas Day Parade shown on ABC. If you get to MK early you can stand along Main Street and see various stars perform. After awhile it gets a little old as they keep doing retakes but it certainly opens your eyes that the parade that seems to go smoothly on Christmas day is actually two days worth of filming in early Dec boiled down into one or two hours.
