There is also a story in the Mickey Monitor about the Christmas decorations.
I can't wait to see the castle all a glow!

Is this the first time they have put Christmas Lights on the castle?

Ooooh. Ahhhh.
I can't wait to see those in person.
Very Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant-esque.
I'm not too keen on the blankets of snow though... I hope those aren't coming to Cindy Castle. The way they placed it on the castle is too organized to look real...

I kinda wish I could go this year to see this. Looks like they moved some of the Osbourne lights over from MGM. or just bought more specially for the castle... looks good, though...

Disneyland Paris have been doing this for a few years now with their castle. They have a special "lighting ceremony" each night for it.

They left the frames for the lights over the turrets this year, since they use the strobe effect during Candleabration for the 15th anniversary, I'd imagine they'll still light the castle in that way though.
Is it me, or does DLR's castle look.. strange.. with the snow on it

(I LIKED THE CAKE - especially since it was only temporary!)
This new lighting looks awesome - almost like an ice castle you'd see in the North Pole or something.

The Disneyworld podcast talked about that a few months ago... They showed the wearhouse with the palets of christmas lights.
