Christmas 2012 Shop Window Displays at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

At Walt Disney World it is all about story and theming. So as you might imagine all the shop windows at Disney’s Hollywood Studios are decorated for the holidays. Most guests just rush right past headed for the rides and attractions. So to share some extra magic we decided to post a few photos of

Details from The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights in 2012

Today we will look at some details from The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights. The lights were originally owned by the Osborne family. Walt Disney World pays homage to the family members every year by “hanging” the family stockings over a fake/light fireplace. The patriarch, Jennings, has his stocking at the top – and

The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights 2012

 

I will not go over the story of the Osborne family again. If you are a Walt Disney World fan you probably know the story. If you don’t, nora wrote about it in our 2010 review of Disney’s Holiday D-Lights. Instead, I will just share the best photos I took during several visits

Nora and I may have seen two New Year’s “in” by staying up past midnight twice since 2000. So we will be early to bed tonight and early to rise on the 1st. Hopefully, we will go out to a yummy breakfast – maybe Earl of Sandwich? On Thanksgiving

Art of Animation Resort – Christmas 2012

Art of Animation Resort opened in May 2012 so this was the resort’s first Christmas. Thus, our first time to see how it was decorated and in fact, our first visit to the resort. The lobby area is very tasteful and nicely modern. Even with all the animation cells and line drawings, the style could

It is all in the details – Christmas, Site 1204 – Fort Wilderness, 2012

Dave “The Castle Guy” at Fort Wilderness

Dave, “The Castle Guy”, has been a favorite at Fort Wilderness since 2008 when he first “debuted” his Castle and Christmas light show. We were lucky enough to being staying in a cabin at Fort Wilderness and saw Dave’s display that first year. We overheard some of Dave’s conversations and he remarked a couple of

Christmas Lights at Fort Wilderness 2012

No matter how much we try, we do not see all the holiday decorations at Walt Disney World as often or in as much detail as we would like. This is especially true of the guest/camper decorations at Fort Wilderness. Today I will share some photos from an evening walk we took around the campground
