WDW's Getting Ready For Christmas!

As the central Florida temperature approaches 90 degrees outside, Cecil Gordon of Walt Disney World Holiday Services touches up the face of a six-foot-tall angel tree-topper July 30, 2008 inside one of the resort’s holiday warehouses in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. The angel will be placed on the top of the giant Christmas tree at the Epcot theme park during the holiday season later this year. Gordon and his colleagues are currently on round-the-clock schedules behind-the-scenes at Walt Disney World Resort, decorating more than 1,500 Christmas trees, unpacking more than 15 miles of garland, testing dozens of snow machines and repainting hundreds of animated and static holiday scenes that will be seen by guests all across the 40-square-mile resort. Gordon, from St. Mary, Jamaica, has worked for Walt Disney World for 19 years. (Garth Vaughan, photographer)

As many of you know that I am very happy to see this because I'm a HUGE Christmas fan.

That's the job I want!!! My thanksgiving break is spent planning, preparing, and decorating my house house and my grandparents house for Christmas. Imagine doing it almost year round at Disney World! Perfect job for me!

We have so much in common Matt! That would be the perfect job for me too! I decorate my room in as early as October sometimes!

Only 147 days until Christmas! Just thought you all would want to know!

I love Christmas too! That's why I've started going to Disney World around Christmas time. I get to combine my two favorite things!

I can't wait to see it all the first week of Dec! Nothing better than combining Disney & Christmas!!

I try to wait til then but usually I can't. A local radio station starts playing in the beginning of October.

I agree!

I'll be there the 2nd week of December -- I can't wait to see all the decorations. I may just take 200 pictures of the castle lights alone!

[disneyfanatic101]

I took tons of pics of the castle with the lights on them!

[bety]

I'll be there December 13!

Ditto. It just doesn't get any better than WDW at Christmas! Thanks for this photo!

I haven't been to WDW in Dec. since 2005 but I'll be back this Dec. and staying a full week! I always go to WDW the first or second week of Dec.

Wow, almost hard to believe they're preparing for Christmas all ready. But you know the folks down there, they have it all down to a science.
