It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas At Walt Disney World

So, although I write about it every day, Disney continues to be an escape. SO, when my own trips to Disney Parks lapse, I rely on (live through) luckier friends. Enter Greg Antonelle, MickeyBlog.com.

Queen Elsa from “Frozen” uses her incredible powers to transform Cinderella Castle into a glistening ice palace for the holidays. Joined on the Forecourt stage by Princess Anna, rugged mountain man Kristoff and Olaf, the summer-loving snowman, Elsa bestows this gift onto the people of Magic Kingdom with colorful snowflakes, fireworks and a special effects spectacle bathing the castle in 200,000 shimmering white lights. Magic Kingdom guests are treated nightly to the dramatic “A Frozen Holiday Wish” stage show. (Matt Stroshane, photographer)

Over the last couple of days, our fearless leader (and Elyssa from MickeyTravels) has been on the ground bringing the latest and most fabulous views from the Magic Kingdom.

A Frozen Holiday Wish

Greg had a little bit of trouble with the interweb. THANKfully, Elyssa from MickeyTravels was on the spot! She captured the first lighting of the Castle for “A Frozen Holiday Wish!”

But Greg booked it to the front of the Castle and got a GREAT view of the lighting!

Happily Ever After…

So, thanks to Greg and Alyssa for sending this guy to bed with visions of “sugar plums” dancing in my head.

Or are those fireworks? You tell me.

Anyway, I can’t wait for my own trip to Walt Disney World’s holiday celebrations (thanks to some terrific planning by MickeyTravels, thank you very much). I’ll try to reciprocate the favor when I walk through the World in December.

Extra-large ornaments, colorful garlands, and a giant Christmas tree centered on the water make Echo Lake the merriest of places this holiday season. Even Dinosaur Gertie is dressed for the occasion with a dino-sized Santa hat. (David Roark, photographer)
