Just booked our reservations for Nov 17-20. We will be celebrating my birthday and DS's birthday, can't wait!! Hopefully the decorations will be up and ready. Is it to early to make a countdown calendar?
I enjoyed a nice few months of reasonable, cool temperatures here in Southern California -- and now that is all coming to an end, as the sun is getting harsh and the temperatures are climbing. Right around now, when the heat is getting hotter and the days are longer, is when I start mentally jumping ahead to fall, Halloween and the holidays. I am excited for and eagerly looking forward to the holidays! I hope we get the Winter Castle back again!
I think we're going back to holiday season this year, so I sure hope so too!
Sherry, it was way too hot today! When I got to church this morning for Bible Study, a friend recommended I turn my car around so it was facing toward the shade instead of the open parking lot in the sun. Maybe I should have listened. Poor car was a sauna less than 2 hours later. I need to start looking for shorts!
I sure vote for the Winter Castle.
Meantime, a little later this evening, I will finally make my picture folder so it's ready for the start of this year's Christmas picture threads on here
Looks like we are in too...maybe we'll be there at the same time? Can't wait to explore DCA more!I think we're going back to holiday season this year, so I sure hope so too!
Send some of that heat back east, please! It was nice and warm and sunny over the weekend, and now it's cold again! Spring needs to stay putOh really? Back for another holiday season at DLR!
I hope everything is back to its usual holiday version/format once November gets here, although I fear that the garland/Mickey-shaped wreaths will never be hung over Main Street again, if Paint the Night sticks around. Those might just be gone forever. But to have those gone, have the Winter Castle gone, and the holiday fireworks too -- all at the same time -- is just too much. Something has got to return. Even if it's only the Winter Castle that returns, it's better than nothing. There is nothing that can replace that glowing, shimmering light that beckons us all from afar, as we walk down Main Street.
It's definitely too hot for me today. It's funny because, right now, the weather forecast I check is saying that we are going to have temperatures in the upper 60s and a high percentage of rain from Thursday of this week to Thursday of next week. Some days have a 90% chance of rain. And yet, I would bet that by tomorrow there will only be one day with a high chance of rain, and then it will be 80 degrees and dry on every other day!

We are going for the rundisney weekend..I'm hopefully getting a spot for the 10K and dh will do the infinity gauntlet challenge, assuming we get spots next week. We'll probably leave the Wednesday after the races.No settled dates here yet, but looking at the week before Thanksgiving. What about you?
Nevermind, I found my answer very easily in post #1 - Thanks @Sherry E for an awesome resource of infoWe did get in for the Superhero RunDisney weekend...DH is lined up to run the Infinity Gauntlet challenge, and I'm doing the 10K. We haven't totally decided on our dates yet, though. We have a hotel booked,but need to alter either the arrival dates or departure dates depending on when Disney decides to start Christmas this year. I can't remember from last year (and I'll confess I did not go back and read page 1!) - does anyone remember when the announcement of the Christmas season dates happened last year?
So now my question is slightly different. With Veteran's Day being Friday teh 11th, is Disney likely to start the holiday season that day? Or would they move the start date?
