I’m disappointed but not altogether surprised. Let’s hope they decide to splurge on a replacement after all (unlikely, I know, but one can, ahem, dream).Yeah. It would apparently need what basically amounts to a full replacement…
At minimum, the spires where the ribbons are seated will likely need a repainting due to scratching, as well as fading in the areas where the ribbon is not covering vs. fresh looking paint where they do.But...will they repaint the castle??
Makes me miss the 100 Years of Magic and 25th Anniversary levels of effort put into a major anniversary.At long last, our long parochial nightmare will be over.
They started serving booze in the sit-downs so we’d stop noticing sight-lines.Well, if nothing else, the Mad Hatter smoothie thing I got in Fantasyland was tasty...
I know. I had said sit-downs.Actually, the smoothie I got was non-alcoholic.

That wasn't the one I got. I think it was just called an "Unbirthday Shake" or something like that.

Just drill holes in the castle, install LED pucks, call them “seamless”… voila!!Surely not going to happen but they should do what they did with SSE, though smaller lights.
Where will you get Walt’s chili?
Honestly, it's high time Disney got its act together and followed suit of the DL Castle treatment for WDW, with its snowy false-roofs that conceal the wiring for the lights and make the Castle look fittingly festive both at night AND in the daytime. The icicles could use work, but they're still an improvement over the bare WDW Castle Dreamlights.I’m disappointed but not altogether surprised.

I’d be happy with just the existing Dream Lights, but yes, an upgrade would be all the better!Honestly, it's high time Disney got its act together and followed suit of the DL Castle treatment for WDW, with its snowy false-roofs that conceal the wiring for the lights and make the Castle look fittingly festive both at night AND in the daytime.

I'm sure they won't do it, but how magical would it be to see Cinderella Castle with snow drifts on its towers like this?

I know you were joking, but I think it would be amazing to use fiber optics for their christmas lights. Completely impractical from many perspectives, BUT.... they wouldn't have to spend to install/uninstall them every year, they'd last basically forever and how much more of a wow factor could you get?Just drill holes in the castle, install LED pucks, call them “seamless”… voila!!
