Holidays Around the World: United Kingdom

If you know me, you know that the United Kingdom pavilion is my absolute favorite. I HAVE to go in all the shops every single time we visit Disney, even though I've seen the same exact merchandise inside a million times. But I have to, because I love it so much.

My favorite shop, The Tea Caddy, had my favorite Christmas tea from Twinnings. If I didn't already have more boxes than I could drink, you know I would have bought more. Their display of Christmas teas and accessories was selling fast. When we came back by about an hour later, a team of cast members were rushing to make a display of non-Christmas things on the empty table because they had quickly sold out of all their special holiday merchandise!

Father Christmas was in the back providing a fun and entertaining show for everyone. We sang traditional Christmas carols with him and learned a little bit about Christmas in the UK. We actually stayed for the whole show because we were standing in the front, and we were having a really good time!

Cute girl helping out with the show!

Did you know that the tradition of Christmas cards began in the United Kingdom? So did the tradition of mistletoe! So cool!

At the UK Beer Cart, you could get Hot Applejack Cider. Doesn't that sound amazing?! It is mulled hot cider with whiskey and a blend of seasonal spices. Mmmmm! If it wasn't sooooo hot in Florida, this would have been perfect! Back in Tennessee, I would probably enjoy this drink daily! Haha!

I love the cute UK stamp. How cute is it?!

Next stop is France, so stay tuned!!
