Is it just me or does it look like theres a little bit more decor this year, than there has been the last few years in terms of the ws pavilions?

The main tree looked so much better when it use to be up higher, now its just flat on the ground. So much more use to go into that setup.

Do they no longer put the tree with the train around it atop the fountain at The American Adventure? I may be years out of touch.

The train was there last year. The tree is in a different location closer to the new bathrooms. Don't know the reason for that. Possibly with not being able to treat the water for the 2 months.

Norway and Germany look nice. Poinsettias were installed at BW today and gingerbread is on sale in the lobby.

I was at Epcot on Sunday. The decor looks great. I realize I'm not following proper protocol by not bashing Disney, but to me, it looked wonderful.

I believe the Christmas tree in America was moved to closer to the side of the pavilion to be closer to the Santa meet and greet.

There is a new set for the the Candlelight stage. New "stained glass" windows, and a new center stage platform for the cast section of the choir. Looks very nice. I may be in the minority, but I really enjoy the way Epcot is decorated for Christmas.

I would like to see a pinch of decorations around the Fountain of Nations central corridor. It would be great...
Also, when will they put all of the decorations in the planters in front of SSE?

I have to wait 17 days... 10 hours... 52 minutes (but who's counting) till I get to see the decorations!

Oh but you get those horrid blue and purple holiday shrubs on the stage for the lousy, in my opinion, Joyful performances. Yuck.....bring back the Kristos

....That's it?

Let me at it. As a designer I could do so much better, even with a dollar store budget.

Is there at least a solid display of traditional Christmas décor around Germany? I know there's a shop that has nutcrackers and pickle ornaments year round. Any outside theming?

:/ Epcot should be decked out in it's holiday finest. Especially if management wants to help tame crowds at MK... they could start by decorating the other parks just as well as they do that one.

Seems to me they are doing nothing to tame those crowds they continue to grow and get worse at MK. All the attention seems to keep going to MK, while the others are getting left in the dust.
