Was at WDW this week and had a great time. The parks wern't crowded, the weather was great, and it definatly seems that there's plenty of "Disney magic" left in the parks. A few observations:
* The parks really seemed to open in sections now. At MK, only the mountains and Haunted Mansion opened at 9 am in Frontierland and Liberty Square.
* Not as much Christmas decorations as in past years. Very minimal at World Showcase and barely anything past Main Street at MK with the Christmas themed shows as the only exception (Country Bears being the only one that ran weekdays).
* Characters were everywhere. Saw about as many in one day as I did in a week last summer. A couple were rarer ones I had never seen doing greets before such as Malificent, the Queen from Snow White, Big Al, and Little John.
* Did the Candlelight Processional package which was great. The show was wonderful, dinner was great, and the 15% off merchendise was a real plus.
That's all I can think of right now. All in all, a great trip.
