There were a few different things to choose from. Can anyone either post the list or tell me where to find it? I couldn't find it through the Disneyland Vacation Planning site.

    Thanks!

    It sounds like it will look lovely. :)

    I sent in a request for information for this. The response I got said they will get back to me with an answer in 3-5 business days. If they do send me a price/options list, I will be sure to share it with everyone here.

    Yes you can find a tree in Target but for us and other's travelling from overseas, we don't have the time or room to get a tree from elsewhere, so this tree is perfect for us and has been each year we are there. It's makes our room feel Christmasy and it's always of a very high quality and just makes you smile when you see it. :)

    We got the tree 3 years in a row and LOVED having it. One year DH surprised me and ordered stockings and we had a blast taking out one little gift each day of our vacation (not looking into the stocking of course:) We put the trees up in our home each year. We've run out of room to set them up or we'd still be ordering one :)

    Now I bring the little lit Disney tree with us each year :) Doesn't have the punch of walking into your room and having the tree set up for you though. Hmm, maybe I can find some room after all ;)

    I really want to get the tree (it sounds amazing), but I want to make sure I will be able to get it home before I spend that much money on it.

My 11 year old step-daughter will not be excited about the offerings in either the child or adult bags.

    We usually have a wait to get our room, and we have them call us when it is ready. I am going to make sure that I am able to get away right when our room is ready and lay them out before the kids get up there.

    I have eight trees now and rotate them around our house year after year in December, so I don't the tree as that expensive, when you consider how much use you will get from it.

    I did ask VP about shipping and they said that they are not shipping this year. I don't know why?


    We manage to get the tree back to Australia every year, on our international flight. We always take some cling wrap with us and take the ornaments off the tree ( VP puts the ornament packaging in your room wardrobe, so you can pack the breakables up ) and then tightly wrap the tree in cling wrap. You will be surprised how small you can get it to go, if you tightly bound it up. Then it just fits into the suitcase.
    Don't forget to take a photo of it, so that you can duplicate where each ornament was. :)
