  • Glenn’s opinion: Good effort, but not a replacement for Osbourne Lights
  • Chris is looking forward to seeing it. It may be a new tradition for them.
  • Epcot should be the center of Disney’s Christmas effort. Decorate World Showcase with the Osbourne lights.

  • Chris just renewed his. The “Disney Tax” in October
  • Should Glenn buy Annual Passes? There’s a [special deal](http://blog.touringplans.com/2016/10/14/questions-disneys-latest-annual-passholder-offer/) if you purchase before 1/3/17: get 13 months for the price of 12
