Hi guys,
Where does everyone watch Illuminations from?
We've always watched it from the bridge between France & UK, as on our first trip back in 1988 a cast member said it was the best view.

We watch it from Italy and it is great. It also means you get to enjoy the long walk back afterwards. I especially like walking back through America cos they have the lights in the trees - very nice :)

The balcony of the Japanese restaurant Matsu No Ma lounge. Great for photographs of the fireworks with the Japanese sculpture gate sillhoutted against them.

We watched it from the bridge between UK & France in 2001, this year it will be from the Rose & Crown terrace!!! :thumb:
We watch them from the Rose and Crown pub in the UK. It is best to get there early though, as we usually lose our space running around to have on more go on the ride in Norway.
Only 10 more weeks
..we've just done it from the left side of Mexico, and the view was superb - no trees or buildings, and about as close as you can get to the fountains and Globe.
If you can get a seat by the railings in the cantina opposite Mexico the view is superb. Mind you it means getting there early and buying something to eat or drink, well worth it though!

We always seem to end up near Mexico too.
However, this year it will be watched from a boat on the lagoon!!!

Ditto even earlier :D
Always watch it from just near the big Gift store at the entrance to World showcase about a 100mtrs from Mexico. Stand right next to the ropes for the restricted Wheelchair area and the view is great.

We're watching it from a boat too with Ceejay and his family !!
Sounds like at least 1 boat each night is likely to have some Dibbers on ??
