Another reason I wanted to go to Disney World at Christmas was to experience the Candlelight Processional, which only runs between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. A celebrity narrator reads the Christmas story from the Bible while a full orchestra plays and choir sings hymns and carols. It was a beautiful way to end our day at EPCOT.
We started our Monday with breakfast at the Garden Grill restaurant. They recently added breakfast, and we were excited to see three of William's four favorite Disney characters: Chip, Dale and Pluto! (Stitch is the other fave.) The lighting in the restaurant wasn't good for photos, but we did have a lot of fun - especially with multiple visits from those silly chipmunks! And the food was good: platters of Mickey waffles, bacon, eggs, ham, and tater tots! And to start the meal is a gooey sticky bun and fruit and POG juice. Yum!

After breakfast we rode a few rides and then headed back to the hotel for a nap. We were smart on our return trip (and all trips to the parks after this) and didn't bring any bags or purses. The bag check lines were just as long as the ride lines! A nice perk of splitting up our days and heading back to the hotel was that we didn't need to take more than what we could fit in our pockets - namely a cell phone and a chapstick. When we came back in the evening, we went to the World Showcase side of the park for dinner in Morocco, a picture of the giant tree, and the show.
