Snow

How often does it snow on Main Street during the Christmas season??

Starting to get very excited now... 5 weeks today we will be on our way down to Ashford! I've never been on the Eurostar before so am really looking forwards to it! Woo hoo.

Hi,
We were there for christmas last year and it snows while the the christmas parade is on. It also snows at random on Main Street. You could be walking down admiring the castle then all of a sudden the music starts and you have snow. To be honest with you that was one of my favourite things about being there at christmas. I am like a big kid! I start shouting "look its snowning" as if everyone doesent know. It is just magical!
It also snows in the Studios. There is umberella like singing in the rain where it normally rains over it but at christmas it snows over it!

They have fake snow machines if it doesn't snow naturally but if it's too cold they don't use them as it can be dangerous, apparently. The two times we've been during the Christmas season it hasn't snowed naturally but the fake snow has been in full effect and it's magical.

That fake snow in Main Street provided one of the best photos my other half's ever taken IMO - and he's a photographer! It was just after we'd come through the gates for the first time, 2nd visit, and those bells started and the snow fell. My son Joe, then 3, just started jumping up and down, grinning from ear-to-ear. We hardly ever get snow on the Welsh coast so it was a real treat for him. If I had any chance at all of working out how to post this picture, I would

The only word for it is magical.

ohhh.. makes me go all tingly just thinking about it! lol.... i'm sure there was like a little tinkling noise, like tink, just before... then this kid infront of me looked up, jaw dropped... and you could see everyone on the street clocking this snow... OH-MY-GOD... seriously... mouths open... eyes welling up... and this was the parents! lol... pure magic, seriously...

Wow - that's a fantastic photo. It's what I feel like inside whenever I'm in DLRP - thanks for sharing, DLRP should use that on their publicity material for the Christmas Season.

Great photography.
We loved it when the snow came on without any warning
We all just skipped when this happened

What a fantastic photo Joesam. That is what I feel like doing everytime I think about Disney at Christmas! I should really edit that to say everytime I think about Disney full stop!
