I think the Contemporary is Disney's only Resort with a tree on the outside...but this huge plaza sort of wants a tree there, doesn't it?

I was there Dec 2008. It was so pretty at night. All the decorations light up on that tree, so not only did you have a pretty lit up castle but also tree. Very magical.

I am so sad that we aren't able to be there for the beautiful Christmas Decorations. Thanks so much for posting the pictures,so I can 'feel' like I'm there.
