It's all so good in all of the parks, but I see you are there just a short time. My personal favorite at Christmas is Epcot. You can go around the Worldshowcase and hear all of the holiday stories. And in the USA, you can get a really nice picture with Santa and Mrs. Clause! It is also neat to see all of the different decorations in each country. The evening is the best part with the tree lighting ceremony and the show with CM's and characters that goes along with that. There's also the Candlelight processional with the choir that is so pretty.

The other thing that is just amazing to see is The Osbourne Spectacle of Lights at MGM.

You will enjoy Christmas at WDW no matter what you do!:santa3::tree::santa:

Lighting of the castle at MK... We didn't do the MVMCP since it was extra. In fact, we avoided MK on the days that it was held, and the park was VERY un-crowded (it was a Wednesday too, so that helped). People are amazed when they see our pictures of the castle, and there are no families (other than us) in the photo.

Osbourne Lights at MGM... must see for sure!
