( I have been there on 4th of July before) Candleight procession review ? MVMCP review ? and the must sees etc..-- any input appreciatd --
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey Hey vbdad- I didn't do a formal trip report, but I'll give you a quick lowdown. -We visited in late November/early December, so I couldn't tell you about the crowds right around Christmas. They were very manageable when we were there, though. -We didn't get to see Candlelight Processional. We got in line later much later than I wanted, so the show filled up before we could get in. The CM managing the line told me that the only way you can really guarantee yourself a seat is if you book a dinner package. I was really disappointed because I wanted to see it so badly, but that just means that I have to plan another Christmas season trip (darn it!). -MVMCP costs a lot of money, and personally I didn't think it was worth the price. You do get to see the Christmas parade and fireworks, and you do get free cocoa and cookies, but other than that I didn't find it was that big of a deal. I'd rather spend the money on MNNSHP, personally.

I would also like to go at Halloween but the kids schedules have never allowed it... I enjoyed the Pirate & Princess for the lighter corwds at the event- and the fireworks show

We had one done and it came out beautifully. It's a really nice memory to have. I'll share ours if I can get it scanned.
