You are right, Sherry. I remember seeing projections on IASWH last year. So it can be done.
We like our holiday celebration too, we would watch the parades/fireworks one time on our visits and the rest of the time, we like to absorb the atmosphere! We had so much fun taking photos of all the Christmas decorations and noticing all the little details.
Yes, exactly -- and all of the themed decorations in every land add to that atmosphere. I don't want the themed décor left out in favor of some bunting that says "60" on it! I want the wacky décor in Toontown. I want the rustic décor in Frontierland. I want the Mardi Gras masks in New Orleans Square. I want the wreaths of different countries in front of IASWH. I want the honey pot décor in Critter Country. I want the teeny tiny decorations on the Storybook Land boat ride. And Main Street! It has to have some decorations and holiday window displays, even if it is lacking in garland hanging overhead, as it is the entrance into Disneyland. It sets the stage for the season!
As I mentioned, I think that Halloween Time will be very telling. If it seems that nothing is going to interrupt the Halloween Time festivities and that the season will carry on as usual, with very few changes (if any), that will be a good indication that the holidays may not suffer too many more blows beyond the losses we already know about. On the other hand, if Halloween Time is basically turned upside down or left as a shell of its former self, the holidays could be in trouble too!
Oh, by the way, DIS'er and photographer extraordinaire, Bret/mvf-m11c (also one of the gift card winners of last year's Theme Week Countdown) has been at DLR this week, enjoying the new nighttime entertainment (and the popcorn buckets!). He has posted a few photos on Facebook. Stay tuned to his trip report in the DL trip report section, as I'm sure he will be posting some amazing shots of Paint the Night, Disneyland Forever and World of Color - Celebrate!
