Thanks for returning to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Michelle! The Christmas Tree Trail at Disney Springs is a super festive way to capture a bit of complimentary magic!
2017 was the second year for the trail, and it grew in size which meant a change of location. Located in the Marketplace area during this past season, the 2018 trail may be in the same spot, or it could change again depending on a few factors. You can watch the
Disney Parks Blog in October and November for the announcement of the trail’s return or you can ask your Disney Hotel Concierge for updates on the holiday offering. As far as your water bottle during
runDisney races, I always either wear SparkleSkirts with plenty of pockets or a Fitletic running belt, with pockets, water and gels sections. Running with a shoulder strap would be terrible for me with the jostling, so I would look into a belt. I have seen small body harnesses (flags, etc) being worn, but do what is comfortable with you. I urge you to practice running in whatever gear you plan to bring for the race!
If I can help you with any other aspect of your upcoming vacation, please let me know. You have a friend in me! ~ Lindsey P.
