disney at christmas

[Sherry E]

I'm in the park now for the Tron meet and NOS is looking beautiful. All the large ornaments are up on the balconies. The castles gotten more snow since Monday.

You know, I must say - up close, that snow never looks that great in the daytime, does it? From a distance, it's good. And at night, of course, with the lights, it's amazing. But when you get real close to it in the light of day, it's kind of interesting.

Anyway, I'm so glad to hear that NOS is getting the holiday makeover - I think NOS is always one of the first places to begin seeing Christmas decorations. I remember that happened last year and in 2008 too!!

Aw. I'm so excited. I wish work schedules came out a week or two earlier than they already do. I would love to be able to start officially planning. But we only know into the 2nd week of Nevember!!

Can any of the locals take some pictures of the current winter/autumn mix, I'ld love to see the castel and NOS

Can't wait to go to DL next month and get to see all the Christmas decorations around the resort. My little brother is going to DL on Sunday during MHP and all ask him to take some pictures of the Christmas decorations around DL.

Thx for the heads up lapdwife.

Yes! I agree - I'd love to see one of those rare photos with a piece of Halloween and a piece of Christmas in it!! Good idea!!

Beautiful, thank you!!!

 

[lapdwife]

I'm glad they were enjoyed! We'll be there Sunday and again Tuesday at DTD and I may just run into the parks quickly to see what's going on.

NOW... we're in major Christmas Eve brunch deliberations here. I still have not made that ressie! We always do Storytellers and this year I'm wondering if we should try Ariel's? Thoughts???

I can't believe that Halloween Time just flew by and will reach its end tomorrow.

But...in less than 2 weeks it will be officially the Holiday season at DLR - 2010!! I'm so excited! I'm not even going to DLR in 2 weeks but I am so excited for the season to begin!! Time for peppermint ice cream and cupcakes!! Time for the return of the 700 trees! Time for decking the halls! Yaaaaaaaayy!!!!

Just 11 more days until DD and I head to Disneyland!! I am so glad I found this thread - you all have given me so much more to look forward to. We went during Holiday Time a few years ago and all I really remember is the snow on the castle and after the fireworks and of course all the beautiful decorations, but there's so much we missed. I especially appreciate all the wonderful photos everyone has posted - it's helped make the time go by a little faster!

I'm so glad you found this thread too! I know that a lot of people probably come here and get daunted because it's a long thread (without an overview or Table of Contents - which will change when Part 2 gets started!) - and they give up.

But I think it's soooo worthwhile to scroll through the thread - even without reading it, even though many folks have found that they enjoyed reading it - because the photos are so wonderful. And if you do read it, the descriptions of why everyone loves the season at DLR are infectious! This thread has put everyone in a holiday mood since it began last year and all the way through this year (and has inspired more than a few holiday trips, I might add), leading up to DLR Holiday Time 2010!!

There is so much great information here - and many, many fabulous photos - that I think anyone who doesn't tune in is missing out!

Be sure to share your photos with us when you get back!

Can someone post the phone # that you can call and hear the treats they are making? The one that would have the recorded message about the candy canes is the one I am after. I am hoping it will change with Nov 1st but We are still trying to figure out which day to go and we REALLY want to get a candy cane this year.
Thanks!
Sue

Hi, Sue!

Prettyprincessbelle posted this info last year, in a different thread - I hope the number is still valid!:

The DL Candy Kitchen has a phone number you can call and the automated message tells you what sweets are available and when. The number is 1-714-781-0112. But when I called yesterday, the message hasn't been updated since October.

I just tried calling. It's late, but since it's an automated line, I figured "What the heck!". The last update was the week of August 29th! That was even before my last trip over Labor Day weekend!
