Hello everyone! We will be at WDW from 17th November until 8th December and I would like some advice about the week of Thanksgiving. I have read that the parks start getting busy from the Wednesday (day before Thanksgiving) and are insanely busy until the afternoon of the Sunday after Thanksgiving. With this being our first family holiday and my husbands first ever time at WDW I am happy to make Thanksgiving and the Friday, Saturday and Sunday non park days (although I think we will check out a park on Sunday afternoon to see if its manageable or not with the stroller) What I would like are some suggestions for these days please. For example, would Thanksgiving day be a good day to do some resort hopping? Should I book our Cirque Du Soleil tickets for one of those days? Will Downtown Disney and Disney Quest be busy over these days? Would Animal Kingdom be quieter and a possible park option for us with the stroller? I know in reality it will be a case of being there and checking things out but even just the tiniest heads up would be greatly appreciated. After it taking me nearly 2 years to convince my hubby to come to WDW, I am not wanting him to be put off returning by running into huge crowds and as much as we would happily relax in the resort on these days, I do not think our 3 year old princess would be up for that! (after going in March last year at only just over 2 years of age she still asks me when we are going back on 'the pirate ship', 'Jasmine flying carpets' and 'the tree face boat ride' (Maelstrom ride) in Florida again!!) I guess I am looking for suggestions of things to do that will keep her amused and keep him away from massive crowds (he gets 'the panic' in overcrowded places) on these days. Thanks for reading my 'wall of text' and any suggestions will be most appreciated! xx
