Unfortunately for my photos, the lighting was very theatrical and my camera is about to bite the dust, so these aren't great shots. But perhaps you'll get the idea.
Here's our group before we got the parkas.
Still pre-parka, getting a bit silly!
One of the first rooms included giant ornaments...pretty cool (literally lol)!
Posessed Santa with my parents:
Fun gingerbready house:
Ice slides!!! I actually went down one of these.
Ice cavey thing....I liked this a lot!
Mom and the penguins:
I liked the colors in this:
And this just summed it up. They thought of everything...including the tissues.
Fun time for $15 pp. I suggest going on a weekday morning (lot less crowded). By the time we left at around 11 am, there was a line. (Although if you go in the evening they have other stuff going on around the hotel like live shows and light shows.) They give you a coupon for free hot chocolate that you have to walk further into the hotel to get. I suggest taking advantage of it and walking around the hotel. It is beautifully done. They have wonderful gardens and landscaping. The hotel itself is not as well done, IMO as the Opryland in Nashville (their sister resort) but still very nice! Parking is $10 if you get the ICE discount. It was something very different and a relaxing change from Disney and Universal. I'm even considering staying there in the future. They are 5 star-ish and are offering rooms at $139/night...nice!

Awesome!! We talked about going last year and never made it when we were down there. We for sure want to go to the Opryland Hotel one and do all the Christmas Hoopla with our munchkin (or munchkins) in the future though!!!!
Well dang, now that we dont live 30 minutes from there, I wanna go now!!!! Looked really cool....no pun int!!
You know - I normally refuse to pay for anything in Orlando, b/c i'm always hoping to get it free somehow. But I might have to pony up to go to ICE. I've never seen so many cool photos!
