Got back five days ago (already seems ages though) and while I haven't been able to do a trip report yet, I do have something you might enjoy in the meantime - a video I took at Epcot of the best bits of Illuminations.
CAUTION - it is 7 minutes long and over 20MB in size, so I recommend you right-click the link and choose Save As, rather than try and play it straight from the web. It's also in WMV format, so you'll need Windows Media Player version 8 or above to play it.
For first 30 seconds or so of the fireworks, the camera is slightly off-centre, but I do eventually correct it! I wanted to watch the show live, not through a viewfinder, so just before it started I rested the camera on a pillar, pointed it in the general direction and hit record. I only bothered looking down after about a minute to see whether I was getting a picture or not and that's when I noticed!
All that said, if you want to see it this is the link you want. Enjoy!
