My wife and I are new to the board and we will be both be posting time to time. We have booked a trip for 11/21 - 11/28 this year. A few questions:

When do the XMAS decorations go up (in the parks and at Wilderness Lodge)?
Any suggestions for Thanksgiving Dinner (we'll be with two kids 9 and 6)?
How about timing for the Epcot events and the Osbourne lights?

Our thanks to all...
 
Based on last year's events:

Although the MK's will be up much earlier (Nov. 10th or so) most of the WDW decorations will be up by about the Monday before Thanksgiving.

Osborne Lights go on at 6pm begininng Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.

Same day for the start of the holiday events at Epcot.


:welcome: to the DISboards, coolieworm!
 
yup Robo hit it pretty on target.
except for my upcoming june trip, we always go thanksgiving week(including the upcoming 2009.. two trips in a year! I'm like a kid in a candy shop!).
MOST decorations are up by Thanksgiving (thanks to Regis and his ego you'll miss the MK tree). Also about 80 - 90% of the table services offer a thanksgiving meal on TG day. Crowds are poretty managable until TG day. Best thing to do on that day is hit one of the less popular parks (we hit HS last trip and it was perfect).

I've seen that mentioned before.

But, what would Regis' ego have to do with MK not setting up the tree near the castle, then moving it after the parade (as they used to do before 2008?)

I have no idea Robo. There have been a few speculations why they won't just place it elsewhere. I'd rather them hire someone else with less vanity to do the parade and have the tree where it belongs.
