Hey guys! The title really says it all. I'll try to answer any questions that are asked.
Where did you go for Thanksgiving dinner? How was it?
I am trying to gather information and recommendations for next year's trip. TIA
I ditto the above question...
thinking of avoiding the parks on actual Turkey day and eating at one of the resorts.
other thoughts:
what were your dates?
How busy was it leading into Thansgiving and afterwards (ie crowds, bus service, dining, anything esle you can think of)
Were you there for any post Thanksgiving things like Osborne lights at DHS or the Candlelight processional at Epcot?
any good tips would be great too!
Going as well next yr! TIA
What resort did you stay at and was it convenient during a busy week in disney?
How was the weather during your stay? Cool enough at night to wear light jackets/long pants?
Thanks.
We just left today also. We were there Nov 22-29. Ft Wilderness Cabins. 4 adults and 2 teens. We had Thanksgiving lunch at Trails End. It was OK. We are from a huge family of southern cooks so I was not impressed.
We went to MK late Sunday night and it was crowded. The wait for SM was. 90 minutes at 10 pm. This could be bc it was officially the first day it was "open".
Mk on Monday was crazy busy. All the e-ticket rides were very long. We had breakfast at 1900 PK Fare. It was the best meal by far of our whole trip!! YUMMY!
There were plenty of buses and boats running in anticipation of the large crowds.
DHS was crowded even in the pouring rain!
Epcot on Fri night was freezing!!! I had on two shirts, a sweatshirt and a jacket with gloves and a scarf. I was perfect! The park stayed open til 1230 but was practically empty by 1030. I think because it was so cold. 49 degrees. For a Georgia girl, that's cold.
We went back to MK on Saturday and it was not as crowded as it had been earlier in the week. We waited standby for sm twice. 30 and 40 min wait time...no fast passes available.
Also saw some BBall players.
I have tons more infor if anyone interested. We did CP, rode all coasters mutliple times, went to all 4 parks several times and visited several resorts for dinner.
Oooh, do you know what team it was?
Did you see any characters? If so,where?
I have only been to Disney in the spring but am watching a special on the Christmas Holiday at Disney and all of the magic that goes into it. It looks incredible! Were all of the parks decorated for Christmas? Not sure when it all goes up.
thanks!
