Hi all - Where's your favorite spot to watch Illuminations at Epcot, Jammin Jungle at AK and Stars & Motor Cars at DS? :)
 
For Illuminations, there is no one best place. Its most important to determine the direction of the wind and position yourself so you are not down-wind.
 
I like watching the Stars and Motorcade from in front of the information/dining booth at the corner of Hollywood Blvd and the other main street. I find that I have time to see the floats as the come around the corner and then take a good picture.

I have only watched the AK parade once but found that it was pretty good to watch it right near the Safari enterance, after you watch it the line is really short if you want to take another ride or you can wait about 15 minutes for the parade to be back around and then take any pictures you missed.

Illuminations definatel depends on the wind- I have enjoyed it from China, France, and from behind the World Showcase enternace shop.
 
I just saw Stars and Motorcars for the first time in awhile, and by the main entrance on Hollywood Blvd, there are benches that go right up against the curb. Stake it out early enough, and you don't have to sit on the ground and no one can sit in front of you!
