I fell in love with the special Christmas lights on Cinderella Castle a few years ago. We try to see them at least two or three times each season. The changing colors and the "iced" effect is awe inspiring.
Now Disney has made the holiday celebration even more special (I didn't think it was possible) with the addition of the new "memories" show.
The castle literally changes before your eyes in brilliant colors and effects. Honestly, you can hardly believe your eyes as the castle transforms.
Following the amazing transforming castle, of course, is the grand finale of the "Wishes" fireworks.
Our only "complaint" is that it was cold. Well, cold for us. We literally dressed in long johns and multiple layers with hats and gloves. How cold was it? An embarrassing 62 degrees. Let's just say that we have become acclimated to Florida's warm weather.
OK... so I'm having to fudge a little on my weeks and dates matching up. We learned our lesson a long time ago to avoid the Orlando theme parks during peak holiday times. So... we avoided Disney and the other parks during the weeks just prior and after Thanksgiving.
After our short "break" from the parks, we headed back to Disney Studios for more of the Osborne Family Spectacle of Lights.
In between light shows, we dropped into the bookstore to warm up with some cocoa and desserts. The carrot cake sandwich cookie is awesome!
The dancing lights are our favorite. We'll be back before the Disney World holiday season ends!
