We can watch the monorail go by and hear the train whistle at MK!!!

This is my heaven!!!!!!

Your room is awesome! That monorail view is sweet! Did you book CL lagoon view?
I am looking forward to your parade pictures. I have such great memories watching the parade on Main Street while the "snowflakes" showered down on us.
Have fun!

We are just standard outer building club level (Sugar Loaf). They don't offer any view categories for booking.

We had a great time at MVMCP! It wasn't crowded at all, in fact it felt very empty! Last year when we went to the last party of the year it was packed, not this time. We had no problem at all finding spots for the two stage shows, parade, and fireworks. The kids rode every single ride they wanted, no waits. The only lines we saw were for the characters and SDMT. But even those were much shorter than MNSSHP a couple of months ago. Where is everyone????

My camera pics are uploading now, I'm excited to show them to you guys!

Wow, that is great! We've gone to sold out MNSSHP two years in a row and both were packed. I would love a guaranteed uncrowded party event. Maybe everyone was at the new Star Wars movie, instead.

Great news about the crowds! It sounds like a great night. I can't wait to see pictures.

Our bus made those stops in that order, and we also scanned all of our MBs too. For the most recent trip and when I went with hubby. I guess they make sure they account for everyone maybe

I LOVE that view, and I miss it so much. Awesome news about MVMCP being not crowded. Sounds like quite a magical trip so far!!!!

 

[Dentam]

How awesome that the crowds were light for the party! I may have to keep this week in mind for a future trip!

 

[KNJWDW]

Thanks so much for sharing your trip with us! We usually go to WDW in June, but my dream is to go sometime during Christmas. For the time being, I will live vicariously through your report.

Good morning everyone! My photos finished uploading sometime last night, there are over 800 already! LOL

I will try to sort and share a few good ones this morning

Coming back last night from MVMCP it was a great opportunity to see the tree and gingerbread house without a crowd of people around:

 

[Dentam]

I'm listening to Christmas piano music on Pandora and imagining myself sitting in the lobby hearing it live next to the gorgeous tree and gingerbread house!

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Our party night was great as I said before, not crowded at all! Reminded me of an old e-Ticket Night.

I think I took a picture of every wreath!

It was mass exodus at this point... about 6:00 PM.

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

We thought about dinner at Skipper's Canteen but we were too full of lounge snacks and anxious to get started with the party events

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

The castle was gorgeous last night as usual

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Celebrate the Season was definitely a highlight!

 

[disny_luvr]

Great photos! The GF tree and gingerbread house are beautiful! I love all the Christmas decorations at the MK!

Great photos of you and the boys. Really looking forward to your Narcoosee's review - I was there for dinner ages ago. In recent years, the boys always make last-minute dining requests, and I end up sacrificing Narcoosee's. They are lobbying for California Grill or Artist Point instead this time, so I'm on the fence again. (And California Grill is booked at this point anyway, so it's really between AP and Narcoosee's.) Also looking forward to tips regarding all things Star Wars at DHS.

We are doing the new brunch! I'm sure the kids will probably hate it, but I'm super excited.
