12/17 Downtown Disney, Magic Kingdom, Contemporary and More

Hi everyone!

I can’t believe next week is Christmas, I’ll have a bigger photo update coming up in a few days – but here are pictures from Downtown Disney, the Contemporary Resort, Magic Kingdom and more!  I also recently put up over 200 Very Merry Christmas Party photos!

A sign in front of the stage (by the Marketplace Tree):

Some photos at Saratoga Springs.

 

2010 Merchandise is now arriving, as well as Phineas and Ferb shirts I’ve not seen before (I have photos from last month when Phineas and Ferb visited the Magic Kingdom with Alyson Stoner!)

 Donald Duck signs autographs:

Scrooge McDuck takes Donald’s place:

 

In the back of Toontown, characters such as Goofy and Stitch were signing autographs (I was told that it was a “surprise” autograph signing).   I’ve not seen J Worthington Foulfellow from Pinocchio in the park much, so I have photos of him (he was also the easiest to get close to).

 

Some merchandise items, including Vinylmation (I like the Piglet):

 

The flag flying at half-staff for Roy Disney:

The wreath outside the Contemporary Resort during the day:

Here are some of the gingerbread treats available.

When I previously took photos of the Disney’s Hollywood Studios Christmas tree, there weren’t any characters below.  Now there are Mickey, Minnie and more!:

And I missed seeing the test at the Rock and Roller Coaster for the queue (with the DJ, etc. while guests were waiting for their Fast Pass times).  Here are a couple of photos after the test was completed, including the DJ booth:

 

Look back in the next few days for more Christmas photos at Walt Disney World!
