My girlfriend and I are going from Dec 26 to Jan 2. We were originally going to arrive on the 27th, but I want to see Edward James Olmos do the Candlelight Processional.
This is the first trip I ever have taken during December and especially the holiday season. She has gone to see family before, but I was always in retail which meant mid Jan the earliest for vacation. She is in retail and while I manage a church, we both got permission to cut out the day after Christmas.
I haven't been since the Millennium celebration in early 2000 and the last time she was there was in the 80's right when Epcot first opened, and even then, it was a day trip.
We are both big Christmas people so I thought a surprise trip to the parks during the holidays, especially with some of the specials we saw last year, would be a great vacation, crowds and all.
