Question about Illuminations.

When Illuminations first starts what is said right before he blows out the "candle" and it goes dark? I always get chills but can't remember what is said!

This might be it:
"We've gathered here tonight around the fire, as people of all lands have gathered for thousands and thousand of years before us: to share the light and to share a story. An amazing story, as old as time itself, but still being written. And though each of us has our own individual story to tell, a true adventure emerges when we bring them all together as one.

I hope you enjoy our story tonight: Reflections of Earth."

It's more than just the words, though; it's the way he says it!

I can close my eyes and hear him!!! Yes.....there go the bumps!!! Thanks! When we go in August, I'll have to tell DH to listen to the voice since he does the best impressions and then I can have him do it when we get back home for a quick Dis fix!!!

I've heard it on Mouse House Radio too (live365.com) when they play the Illuminations thing...the one that last 68 minutes. I love hearing the "In just 5 more minutes..." thing too!
