...the holiday music in the air. And the lights along the archway blinking in synchronization.

Usually, after Illuminations, everyone walks past the beautiful christmas tree...and then turn around and take a last look at the beautiful lake and the different countries.

Then they pause and listen to the wonderful music as the thousands of blinkng and motion lights along the archway.

Then, smiling...maybe with a tear of good memories or joy, they slowly walk through the archway and turn around again to see this beautiful picture.

I just can't wait to experience this moment with all you dear DISer friends at the 2002 DIS-CONvention - "A Gathering of Friends."

Of course, since I'll be staying at the beautiful Disney Dolphin Resort, I'll walk back to the International Gateway to exit EPCOT. And if I wlked the long way around, I might see this glorious picture.

Jared and I were just talking about these lights, Ray! We were at Epcot yesterday, and I was trying to explain them to him. I'll have to show him your picture!

Great pictures, Ray! They bring back memories...! Can't wait for DisCon! :D
 
That arch is MY favorite thing to see in EPCOT in relation to the holidays. I can sit and just watch it all night. The changing of the colors, the way it starts to light up at one end and go down to the other. It's just so awesome and beautiful!!!!
 

Wow - I just got goosebumps - can't wait for another pre-Christmas visit to WDW and for DIS CON too!
 
Debbie: It is hard to explain and this photo doesn't do it justice. And don't forget the dancing light synchronized to music, too.

MdmMim: Great memories for sure.

December99: Very awesome.

Iluvdisney: I can't wait.

I truly cannot wait to see this for real in December. I have once stayed off site around Thanksgiving and saw a lot of preparation for the Holiday season but sadly missed out on it so I'm just sooooooo excited to know that I'm going to be seeing all the decorations etc this year - it's going to feel so chrissamy and dead romantic I really do wish my other half was coming now :(


Oh well...... wotcha gonna do...... I'll get it on camera for him!

:) Quickly got over that

Thanks for posting the beautiful photos, Ray! The Christmas season is my absolute favorite time at WDW, and Epcot is truly beautiful then. I love to take the monorail from the TTC to Epcot at night because it goes over Future World and right through the Lights of Winter arch!
