Hi All,

Discovered this PR release from DLRP regarding the Christmas 2008 Season. This appears to be slightly different to the English one that DLRPToday/Magic covered in early August.

This was dated 15th September 2008 and was in French. The below is in English thanks to Google's Translation Service.

Some Highlights:

Season - 8th November 2008 thru to January 6th 2009
Christmas Minnie Show - Every Saturday and Sunday from December and then every day from 20 December 2008 to January 6, 2009.
Christmas Market - December 21 2008 to January 6, 2009.
(Does this just get later and later each year? - I'm really gutted about these dates, I'm visiting late December but will miss this)

Thanks for posting, Iain. :)

I love the 'post office of Father Christmas' idea. :thumbsup2

My DDs used to do this when they were younger (either with the royal Mail or Asda) and they used to love getting their replies. Even better doing it at DLRP!! :santa:
 

Strange question but can the Young at heart go meet Father Christmas?
I haven't had my picture taken with Father Christmas since I was little and I sooo want it done.
I'm also planning on dropping him my 2 yr old Nephews christmas list for a reply from santa.
 
What on earth is the Dingo Father Christmas ?!? Slight blip in translation I think.
 
Is it me, or do there seem to be more cut backs again with everything starting closer to christmas and the upcharge parties. If we are not careful, it will soon be as bad as WDW.

Everything is having cutbacks - at the end of the Disney is a business and needs to make money like the rest of us!

Normally I would concur, but DLP is having a record year so far. I suspect this is because a lot of the current management team were former WDW drones. It was not that long ago DLP would celebrate Christmas from Mid November every day, and it was only a few years ago where they would even have fireworks for the Christmas season.

For these sorts of resorts, offering more is even more important to encourage people to part with their money.

Of course you can! I had my picture taken with him twice in 2005 ~ once with my DDs and once on my own!! :rotfl:
