We will be there the same time - staying at the Residence Inn Maingate. We will look out for you!

Anyway, we are having dinner at Storyteller's on Christmas. Although I don't have first hand knowledge, everyone tells me that they have a special holiday buffet on Christmas Day.

There have been quite a few threads recently about Chirstmas visit recommendations. Maybe someone can help with a link?

Call Vacation Planning to ask about the tree-in-the-room. Illuminations has lots of pine cones and garland to further decorate your room.

HI and you picked a great time to visit DL. We stayed at the GCH during Christmas last year. We called vacation planning and got gift baskets and a tree for our kids in our room, they loved it and the look on their faces was the BEST! You can ask when you check in if they still do letters on the door from Santa on Christmas, although your kids may be to old for that:p. We ate at Storytellers for dinner and it was delicious, the service was great! They even had a cute dessert table decorated like a Christmas village. But make sure you have PS because the line for other guests to get in was long. I think there was a family who had to wait one hour and a half to get in. Also make sure you get Christmas fudge, candy canes and gingerbread cookies from Main Street! YUM! Make time for the fireworks show and stay after for the snow. Look for the black light towers on Main Street near the pub and stay there. The black box under those lights do the snow. And remember to do Haunted Mansion and Small World! Beautiful! Have fun!!!! Oh and go early - the rides were not longer than 10 minutes at best and use the FP. By mid morning, it was busy, so we went shopping, took a break at the hotel, went to DTD, swam at the pool, lunch, then went back in mid afternoon, it wasn't as busy!
