This was too hard - I had to go backwards

1. The abundant holiday spirit!
2. Billions of lights
3. The Homestead Pickers
4. It's 5K race time
5. Walking around while the park is illuminated
6. Holiday food and drink offerings
7. Photo opportunities like no other!
8. Dickens Christmas Carol
9. The BIG tree!
10. Parade

I couldn't fit in the train, shopping, warmth where you can find it.  Hope to add "It's A Wonderful Life" to the list after I see it.
