Holly Jolly.... Holly Jolly... Holly Jolly Christmas....
Holly Jolly.... Holly Jolly... Holly Jolly Christmas....
two parades each night for two months.....
and Rudolph repeated on a loop every 45 minutes
</shudder>

The one thing I don't miss...

LMAO, Not sure if I dislike this more or that blasted tree going off every 15 minutes. I like most of the Christmas celebration but if I had some explosives that tree would be history.  ;D

I wish they would get rid of the holly jolly parade.  It is not so much the parade itself, but its the people crowding around to see it and suddenly becoming extremely rude.  I have seen many fights almost break out while waiting.

Easy solution, 
do as I do.....  be elsewhere..   LOL

I would love to do that, except the wife insists we watch it.  I will try the FITH area or GE next time

We kind of like the tree but totally agree about the parade.  it's been boring since it's beginning and highly inconvenient.  the one good thing is that it does cut down on ride and show lines and the park is more manageable to navigate since a lot of guests leave after the first parade.  But a lot of the crowd seems to like the parade.

Grinches, everyone.  :D

The parade is a tight fit, but it's very fun and inventive for a park like SDC. I wish they could expand the pinchpoints just a little, and am still scratching my head over the new area that actually added a big pinch point, but oh well.

Don't get me wrong. I love Christmas and I don't even mind having a parade, but for goodness sake, it's time to get rid of Rudolph... or change up the music .. or ... I don't know ANYTHING but holly jolly... holly jolly ... holly jolly Christmas

Kind of like:
"It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small small world..."
<repeat an nauseum>

lol  Yes it gets in your head, but I think more people like it than hate it.  The parade is really popular, and the music fits.  Even if it can be a bit annoying.  :-P
This is a stick up!  Get it? Stick.... Nevermind, it's a train robbery.  I want everyone to get your hands up and act scared.

I like the parade - dislike the Rudolph theme.

If this is referring to the planter area in front of the Time Traders shop, I bet they will find out the hard way and either reduce its size or remove it completely in the off season.

Well if the rumors from earlier this year are true, this will be the last weekend for Lost River and walls should go up on Sunday?  It'll be interesting to see if this pans out or not

That was the hot topic last weekend when we were there.

If Lost River is closing I wonder when they'll tell people that. If walls go up Sunday it will be pretty clear to everyone something is happening to it.
