Osbourne Lights

One of the cool things about living in Central Florida is that Denise and I can head over to Disney World any time we want to.  Tonight we went over to Disney-MGM Studios' theme park after work to see the Osbourne Family Christmas Lights on the backlot movie set.  It was AWESOME!!!  Not only were there over 1 million lights decorating the street, every fifteen minutes they'd do a "dancing" light display.  Everything would go dark, then the lights would "dance" in time to the music of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.  Disney techs used over 1200 lighting relays that they custom built in order to make it all happen.  Anyway, it was quite a spectacle and really put us in the Christmas mood.  Oh yeah, they had fake snow showering down from the tops of the bulidings onto the street.  It's as close to a "white Christmas" that us Floridians will ever see!

Man, that is one thing that I miss about being in C. FL. Those lights are SWEET! I miss the old backlot tour with the Golden Girls house, though. The lights were even sweeter back there.

I was watching Top Chef last night and they made it snow in LA, reminded me of that soapy snow they have on Main Street, USA, MGM and Celebration.

I'll send you a snowball..if it ever snows here.
