AKL 11/28-12/7 What to expect?

We are going during the Christmas season for the first time 11/28-12/07 just wanted to get feedback on crowds and weather. We have gone the last two years in early Oct. and it was great.

We were at AKL from around 12-4-12-10 last year. I don't think I wore jeans at all....Maybe a jacket once or twice at night, but the weather was really nice esp compared to MI.
The decorations at AKL are lovely. They are not done in bright reds or greens, seems like there was muted browns and such..
All around the world the decorations are beautiful.
One thing we did was eat a late dinner at Kona and then go to the beach and watch the fireworks from mvmcp. It was cool.
We also went to MVMCP but it certainly isn't what it was in the past.

The crowds were managable and I would guess less than early October. I can report that for sure after our trip the second week of October this year!

We are planning to be there for similar dates to yours. Our travel agent told us that WL and the monorail resorts are fully booked. With Pop Warner beginning Dec 3, I expect the value & moderate resorts to be hoping by the weekend. The parade taping at MK is on Dec 2-3. I think the weekends are going to be busy and the weekdays manageable. I am not expecting a "slow" period at all. Get those ADRs sooner rather than later and get to the parks by opening!
