I agree. I was also looking forward to a crowd level of one, which I got in March from the Unofficial Guide, and that's why I planned this trip for early December. I looked at the Unofficial Guide updates at touringplans.com, and now the levels are 4 and 5 for the time I'll be there. I guess that's not so bad (I've been there during 8's and 9's), and I'm sure I will still have a great time. I'm going solo, and it's certainly easier to navigate through crowds alone than with the family in tow! Of course, there's something to be said for having the park almost to yourself...
Can't wait; less than 10 weeks to go!
