Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

[Marijil]

I know we are crazy but we are doing it this year....looking for the benefit of anyone's experience on these two days.....

We had to experience it too...we found Christmas Eve fairly workable, not a big deal on crowds, etc...Christmas Day early morning was pretty okay in MK, because so many people had lined up to see the parade (it ran early in the morning) and then again later. We went to the 2nd parade; a lot less crowded. During the first parade, we rode a lot of rides. After the second parade, we had to be selective on rides and since our kids were at two very different height 'restrictions', we split up for awhile. DH took DS to Space Mountain (2 hr. wait) and DD and I stayed in Fantasyland. We had a great time, even with the waiting. Enjoy!!!! I don't regret it one bit. The kids are 26 and 23 and still talk about Christmas at WDW...and how the couldn't believe that Santa found them there and left a note telling them that most of their gifts were at their home.

We'll be there this year again too during the same time. We hit MK in the AM and Epcot in the PM on Christmas eve then spend all Christmas day at HS.

I love going on Christmas morning, cool, crisp, not at all crowded. We have been several times on both days, always with older kids who knew all about Christmas. The last time we were there is my all time favorite, Christmas night at MK, watching the fireworks, all together. Great memories!
