Christmas Day Ideas?
 
Anyone have ideas what to do on Christmas Day. We won't be celebrating til later with kids sooo

I know we can always go to a movie but wondered if others had other ideas.

Also for eating out we have only found Luigianos, Amelias or Katie Belles. For us Katie Bells is out because I don't want a breakfast buffet. Are there other options? (I know Chinese fa ra ra ra!!!)

Would Amelias be better or Luigianos?

Any thoughts would be welcome.

Since we are alone here....... last Christmas we went to Disney Animal Kingdom. It did not get too crowded until about 2:00. This year we are going to Universal and will be eating at one of the restaurants in City Walk. We get to spend the holiday with happy families even though they are not our family.

TooJays and Perkins are also open. Free golf if you are a player.

This will be the second annual Christmas Day for singles at Kitty's....
We will have an all day open house startng with brunch.
It spunds as if there are plenty of couples who prefer not to be alone on Christmas Day...
Maybe next year, someone will start a tradition of a holiday party Christmas Day for couples.

thanks
 
I am sure someone will benefit from these ideas.
My husband decided he wanted to go to Disney. Epcot has santas and traditions from around the world but they also have 3 shows with a choir, candlelight processional, christmas carols and someone reads the REAL Christmas story.... count me in.

Good for you, and yep, it will always be ok somewhere and somehow to remember the birth and Incarnation of Jesus Christ.

Enjoy your day there! :)

Just about any place you name would be better than Luigianos.

We've made it a Christmas tradition to s pend the day at Disney as well. Since we're not spending the day with family we try to make it as magical as possible.
