Disney's Enchanted Christmas 2011

[wishuponastar]

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to ask this: What do you all think of the Christmas columns down Main Street. Do you prefer them or the white arches with the lights on that that they used to have before the 15th anniversary?

I think they've been good, but look really tired now. We need something new & different for our resort.

I hate them for various reasons:
I think the LED lights look cold and don't spread the warmth of the arches.
The princess theme goes back to 2004ish when some genius had the brillant idea to put the christmas tree in front of the castle and let the princesses conduct the Tree-Lightning-Ceremony. Now there is no more reason for the princess theme, besides, they look tacky.
And there is no way that LED Chandeliers with pictures of Disney's princesses fit a Victorian Street. I know that this doesn't matter anymore but it should.

How is Enchanted Christmas 2011?
how has the weather been as well, please say not as cold as last yr!

I thought the decorations, the shows, in fact everying about it was wonderful, but it was my first Christmas visit so I have nothing to compare it with. It was thermals weather last week, but from what I hear, definately not as cold as last year.

That's a good point. Yeah, I miss the warmth that the arches had, too. The columns don't make me feel "Yeah, its Christmas!" But at the same time, the arches spoilt the view down Main Street.

I hope Tokyo Disneyland are enjoying them, now that they've got them.

I packed all sorts of warm clothing, but the weather this week was beautiful!
I didn't even have to wear my coat during the day, only on thursday when we left.

I thought christmas at DLP was wonderful, but for me it was also the first time.
Had an amazing time though

Does anyone know what the name of the CD is for the music they play down Main Street at Christmas? I think it was posted here before, but I can't remember which topic it was.

[pfspock]

There is no actual CD, the music ist a collection from various American christmas CDs (like Arthur Fiedler, Bostom Pops etc.). You can find the titles, the performers and ways to obtain them (legally) here. You can get most of the CDs relatively cheap on Amazon.com

Here's an even more complete list, posted just a few days ago.

Thanks. It feels really nostalgic to listen to. It'll be great for our family to listen to during Christmas.
