Tue 10/30/2007 11:35p | Just got my latest copy of the AP newsletter Mickey Monitor... The cover features the nice artwork for this year's castle lights for the holidays.
Inside.. this is what it reveals...
-Most Xmas festivities at WDW will begin on November 12th.
-The new castle light display is called "Castle Dream Lights". there are 200,000 lights in the display.
-New floats and costumes for the Christmas Parade... The Christmas parade floats will be themed to the "Many JOts of Xmas Time", with floats designed around winterwonderland themes, family and friends, Fairy Tale Xmas, Xmas sweets, and North Pole.
-New song written for the parade this year..."Once Upon a Christmastime".
-The "Harlem Gospel Choir" comes to DHS for the season with nightly shows, from Nov 30th thru Dec 25th.
-New Candlelight hosts this year..Dennis Franz, Monique Coleman, Isabella Rossellini, plus old time favs like Rita Moreno and Neil Patrick Harris (go! sisterhood, go!) I know what nights I will be there..
-New spanish speaking version of Candlelight Processional with Edwars James Olmos. Can we make spanish the official language of the USA please? I mean.. c'mon!
-Nothing new at DAK, but the same old Jamming jungle parade in it's holiday version.
Start planning now kiddies!

Thanks for the report TDLFAN. I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures of the Castle when it's all lit up. |

I'm malso excited for the "new" parade- Not sure if I want to be there at 2am when they have cast preview this week...

Wed 10/31/2007 11:12a | I hope the lights on the castle are on every night, but everything I've read says for MVMCP. Can any one find out for sure?
I am ready for a new Christmas Parade! Hope to see it all the first week in Dec.
Christmas at DW is always so special! |

Maybe they could just sing the Posadas and break a traditional piñata (the kind that's made out of a clay pot) instead?

You should be. They have been doing the same at DLP for the past three years and it is absolutely breathtaking, especially the illumination ceremony, which I hope will be a part of the MK's production as well. |
