Walt Disney World has many resorts on their property…They range from the lower resorts to the upper echilon of resorts…There is the low end resort of Pop Century and the All Star Resorts to the Contemporary and Polynesian Resorts…but there is one upper expensive resort called The Grand Floridian…Where the people with money stay or if you are lucky enough, you may get an upgrade to this resort…It’s a very beautiful resort with all the inlaid Italian marble with Disney characters inlaid in to the marble…The Fab 5 are inlaid in the main entrance, 2nd floor hallway leading from the monorail entrance…Tinkerbell was found on the 2nd floor by the elevators…
As you come in from the monorail entrance side, there are 2 good sized christmas trees, one on each side of the balcony…This is where you can look over the railing and see just how big the resort’s christmas tree is…
The resort’s christmas tree is decorated with Victorian decorations…There are bird cages, doves, gold ribbon and christmas balls…The tree is about 50 feet tall and is put together in several sections…It is an awesome tree to see in person…
In the Grand Floridian are 2 high-class restaurants…The Citrico and Victoria & Alberts…Reservations are most definitely needed and are very hard to get…I didn’t see any sort of menu to see just what they serve or how expensive a meal can be…but I have heard that they are always packed..
Even the lettering for the name of the restaurant looks expensive…lol
Inside the Grand Floridian is a huge Gingerbread House…You can buy gingerbread cookies and cakes from this house…It is a spectacular sight to see…
One of the chefs who work the gingerbread house was showing the guests how she makes a small gingerbread house…It was so interesting how she uses the royal icing to make icicles and how to make all her decorations stick to the gingerbread house…It does take 24 hours for the small gingerbread house to dry…Then you can eat the house but once you make it, would you want to eat it? All that hard work go in to someone’s tummy…I don’t think so…
At the entrance of the Grand Floridian, ground floor, there are 2 different vehicles…A vintagecadillac and a vintage carriage…I would love to have a ride with my sweetie in this being rode around with a driver and several horses and a warm blanket…Or if one is getting married to be put up in the carriage and driven around to the wedding and/or reception and have everyone look at the bride…How spectacular that would be…
The Grand Floridian is decorated with all the christmas spirit of wreaths and trees all around…It’s a beautiful place to come and see at least once…Richard and I are lucky enough to be able to come every christmas to see these decorations…
