One week to Thanksgiving and the Disney parks around the world are ready for full Christmas insanity. The MiceChatters have been busily sharing news and photos of Disney's holiday decorations, lights, parades, fireworks, shows and attractions. Disneyland looks spectacular this year, but much discussion is focusing on the dwindling entertainment value of Walt Disney World - where continuous cutbacks have lead to a loss of many beloved details. Join us for this week's Round Up and we'll share the links and summaries of the most entertaining discussions, reviews, trip reports, news and photos of the week. You'll see what it's like to be a participant in Tiana's Showboat Jubilee, meet a Disney author, visit all the Disney parks in glorious photos, and have a lot of fun in the process.

The MiceChat Weekly Round Up is here and it's been fortified with dozens of the week's top Disney news, rumors, pictures, and discussions - NOW improved with 100% more dragon in every bite. What a week it was folks. A dragon false start on Monday, followed by news that Disney had purchased Marvel Entertainment (Spiderman, Hulk, et al), and then last night the long delayed Fantasmic dragon landed and briefly took MiceChat with it. Over the course of the evening, more people visited the pages of MiceChat than were actually sitting around the edge of the Rivers of America to watch the actual dragon. It was amazing - but there were still issues which you'll hear about in the links attached. But the dragon wasn't the only news this week (though it may seem that way) the Round Up is packed full of all sorts of Disney stories and news from around the world. It's a really good week to be a Disney fan, don't miss out on this week's juicy update!
