You will have a fantastic time. WDW at Christmas is the most magical time to be there. Make sure you see the Osborne Family Lights they are unbelievable. We go almost every night just to see them. Also, if you will be there before Christmas, make sure you go to Epcot and do all the countries. Many of them have their Santa there and we all know that after Christmas Santa goes back to the North Pole. Also, during Christmas Week, there are lots of shows going on at the parks. If you are there for New Years Eve, I would recommend Hollywood Studios. We went there on the recommendation of many cast members. We were told that EPCOT has alot of well partied individuals, to be politically correst. Magic Kingdom has lots of screaming kids. We were told that Hollywood Studios only does fireworks twice a year and they were fantastic. They lasted over 30 minutes. The crowds were unbelievable, but we got out of the park pretty quickly. Also, the parks get filled to compacity on New Years Eve, so you need to pick a park and be there by about 4. Hope this helps. We should be there at Christmas this year too. Can't wait.
We just booked our week at the Fort for Christmas,with a request for the 1500 loop and the 3 daughters don't know anyything about it!! It's a surprise!!! They think we can't go until next year,but we are sprinkling some Pixie Dust and going for Christmas!! So excited hope I can keep my big mouth shut!!!
and normally we would have went at a different time but I work for our local school district
and this year in our contract we will be off of work mon and tues that week for Christmas and then thurs and fri for new years so the only day we would be required to work is that wed. but our district is going to have everyone take a vacation day so the schools can be shut down the whole week and thus save money in our budget
,so for us it's perfect timing and we are going to upgrade to AP's so we can go again next year and not worry about paying for tickets again.It is even more important to me now to take this trip as I am part of all this politacal turmoil that is happeneing now in our state with our Gov. and his bill
so in the future I mite not get so lucky to have this kind of time for vacation so even if we don't see everything and get on every ride we know we will be coming back and can do it then, so don't worry about patience, if MK is too much we park hop somewhere else, if that park is too much we enjoy the Fort, still gonna be trip of a lifetime no matter the crowds.
We did see the Osborne lights a couple of years ago and loved it!! Also can't wait to see the campsite decorations which is why I said if too crazy in the parks we will do looping in the Fort, that's just as much fun as the parks to me.
