**Official December 2010 Thread!!**

We've been to WDW several times in November, but this year we're planning on 12/1 through 12/7. Based on past experience during the first week of December, should we expect that Illuminations at Epcot and the fireworks at the Magic Kingdom will be going on?

IllumiNations runs every night; in December it'll run at 9:30 due to the Candlelight Processional. (IllumiNations typically starts at 9:00, but the last showing of CP starts at 8:15 and it runs a bit longer than 45 minutes and you don't want two musical shows running at the same time, plus this gives people who do the 8:15 show some time to find spots to see IllumiNations.) Wishes usually runs every night, but there are certain nights in December when the MK closes at 7:00 for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, and unfortunately, they don't do Wishes those nights; instead they do Holiday Wishes during the party, which requires a separate ticket.

Illuminations is extra long for the holiday season... after the song 'We Go On' - there's about 5 minutes extra music & fireworks... it's breath-taking!!

I see you're from NC-which part? My sister and her husband live in Franklin. We live close to the top of SC-10 miles from the NC border!

We live in the triangle, but we have family about 20 miles north of the SC border. It's a small world!

This December we have been first part of December each year since 1991.

Wow, that's awesome! I got some catching up to do!

I am planning a trip for my mother, best friend and I, will be there Nov. 30th-Dec. 5th, many trips there over the years but never onsite, its going to be awesome.

Once you stay onsite for the first time, it's hard to go back!

I'm pretty sure I know where you are! I'm a Viking! Welcome to DISBoards!!! It's addictive!!! When are you going to WDW in December?

 

[scdak]

Nov 30-Dec 6, split stay POFQ and Poly. I know Dis is addictive, been reading it many times a day for weeks and decided it was time to chime it, I have found lots of answers to lots of questions about the resorts, transportation and dining options. I know the parks like the back of my hand!

Ooh, that sounds nice! I love reading where everyone is staying! We still haven't decided yet. I'm trying to hold out for December park hours to be released and any additional offers they may throw our way! Hurry up, Disney!!

 

[Tinker_Tam]

Am I really going to have to wait another month for December hours?????

They released November hours last month, so I'm assuming December hours aren't far behind. Plus, they've already released the MVMCP dates, so they know their December schedule full well. It's just a matter of time!

 

[MickeyLover20]

I am also waiting ever so patiently for the December and January hours to come out so I can start planning.

 

[Tinker_Tam]

I just feel like I am sitting here with nothing to do till the hours are released. Once those are posted I can turn into a planning Mad Woman!!

 

[starstruck93]
