    In 2003 we went in early November and I don't remember seeing any Christmas at all. We went the same weekend this year and saw lots of Christmas - so for us the first time this year!

    We did MVMCP, too! Loved it

    Only one of our trips has been during the Christmas holiday season. We're thinking of a future trip at this time, though.

    Only one actual trip for the sole purpose of seeing the Holiday festivities, back in 1995, when they used to offer the Jolly Holiday dinner show at the Contemporary.

    Our yearly trip is in November, so we are usually lucky enough to see all of the decorations..well, maybe not all. The last two years in particular, Disney began celebrating earlier, so we were able to catch the Osborne Lights and MVMCP as well.

    Every fan of Disney and WDW should get to experience the World at Christmas time at least once.

    Our favorite trip...the NEXT one!

    In 2005 we spent 10 days in WDW and left the day after Christmas. It was wonderful!!!

    In Jan 2003 we were there from Jan 3-10 and caught them. It was also wonderful. It is such a joy to see the festivities done to the hilt. Disney does Christmas so well.

    We were down in Oct this year -- what a year to miss Christmas with the Castle done up like never before!!!!

    Enjoy!!
    I'm not bad - I'm just drawn that way!

    Next Trip? Not sure but always planning!!

    Once each year since 2003 - I wasn't going to go this year , but this last Tesday I booked a trip for next week. I live in Oregon so it's not a little trip but I just decided I'd be sad if I missed MVMCP!

    We just got back yesterday from our first Christmas trip. The temperatures were great, we decided this will probably be the only time we go from now on.

    I've been ten times when the Christmas decorations were up, either at Thanksgiving or Christmas/New Year's. Love that gingerbread! Yum! +

    I went a lot as a kid (don't know how many times). As an adult, I've only been once. It was in Nov. '05 with my DH. I'm going again in 5 days, with my two teenage DD's. I can't wait to see their reactions!

    I haven't made it yet to see WDW during the holidays, though I've wanted to go for a long time. I do have Disneyland near me, which is also wonderful this time of year.

    On my most recent trip to WDW I went with several friends who love Disneyland but were making their first trip to WDW. Yesterday those same friends told me they were going to do to WDW for Christmas ... I was so jealous, but happy for them. Should be a great second trip to the world.

    The only time we have been at WDW during the holiday was in 1997 when my mom, sister (my only sibling) and her family went together December 26-January 1. It was great but too crowded for me, I felt panicky the whole time.
    I'll go again during the season, but I doubt I'll go the week between Christmas and New Year again!

    oh, I almost forgot! My first trip was in 1972, during Thanksgiving week, there we no Christmas decorations then!

    We will be taking our first Christmas trip in 2 days, 3hours - we'll be driving down. Hoping to see lots of pretty lights on the way!! It will probably be a long while before we do another christmas trip. I am hoping once I graduate nursing school we will make ressies for christmas through new year's day!
