The Christmas tree is now in place on Town Square, greeting guests as they enter the park. The large wreaths have been installed over Main Street, U.S.A., and holiday background music is playing throughout the park, setting the tone for the start of the season.

Since the show was revised I feel like the narrator plays a much bigger role than they used to do... Especially because they now have a much larger section in which they can speak freely, instead of reading a particularly fantastic poem that was suddenly offensive.

It's all good...especially when it gets my wife in the mood for another trip just for Candlelight and Christmas decorations when she doesnt like the cold and swore she wasnt coming this year. I know Florida doesnt get really cold, but with blood thinners cold enough to be miserable. Remember its the reason for the season that's most important for observant people, not the trappings.

Well Darn! Jennifer was the one I wanted to see on 12/4. But in a way, the Grandeur of the CP is why we go. The narrator is just a part of it, a grand part, yes, but not the only part. Seen a lot of different narrators over the years, some good, some great, but the grand spectacle of it, IS the show!!! IMHO.

Imagineer Daniel Joseph on the new Prototype Cookie available during the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays: I am beyond thrilled to share our labor of love project; a new edible illusion! Disney’s holographic chocolate is debuting in Epcot at the end of November! It’s amazing to see what merging illusion development and foods can do!! Thank you to all the amazing people on our small but mighty team that helped bring this “only in a Disney park” creation to our guests!

Well, that's a loss... Unfortunate. Susan's a friend of a new acquaintance of mine, so I may see her narrate. Haven't decided yet who I'm seeing this year, or if I'll see more than one narrator (I've seen up to 4 some years). Guess I have to update my narrator spreadsheet now as well.
