I think the Epcot Tree was up in the beginning of November this year.
So if everything is the same in 2008, you probably should be able to see it.

It's been starting earlier and earlier every year, so you might get lucky. It just depends when the decision comes down the ladder...

The Osborne Lights and MVMCP both started in 2007 within the time frame you're mentioning. I think MVMCP's first run was Nov 12 or 13 and Osborne Lights was Nov 9, so you should have Christmas decorations at least part of the time you're there.

I am so fighting the urge to say, "As far as I know, it will be December 25 again this year, even in WDW." :p

In answer to the ?, though, some things are decorated and begin immediately after MNSSHP, so with your time frame in Nov., you should be able to see many Christmas decorations. And the World is gorgeous at Christmas!

You might get lucky and be able to do MVMCP and see the castle lights and Osbourne lights. I went Nov. 11th to 17th last year and it was all available. Not all the decorations were up though in all the parks, but the main stuff was.

We went Nov 16-24th in O7. Nov 12th was starting night for Osborne Lights! MVMCP started Nov 12, 15,16! Some of the resorts are slower. The tree at the Grand Floridian was NOT up on Nov 17th for our dinner but the Gingerbread House was up!! That opened Nov 12th also! You will get to see most everything!! Have fun but just know the parks are SUPER CROWDED!! Lower the # of things you expect to get to do! But the whole place is BEAUTIFUL!!!! :xmas:have sooooo much fun!

That's all good news for me since I'll be arriving on the 13th of Nov. (staying until the 19th). I love the Osborne Lights and the Gingerbread House. However, if I miss anything during my Nov. trip, then I'll be back the following month, so all is good either way. :D

This is great news! :xmas: My wife and I moved our next trip to the World in 2008 from December to late November (Nov 17th to 23rd that will include our 25th wedding anniversary!) and I was worried that it might be too early for the Osborne Lights and MVMCP. We are so looking forward to all the decorations... to make an already special occasion even more "magical".
