Hello all!
I will be traveling for Thanksgiving and have most of my trip pretty ironed out. We are Annual Passholders, and have been countless times. Just never at Christmas!! I use to be active with the dis boards, but a full time job and a small child got the better of me. :)

But one thing I do know is that YOU are the experts and I need your help!

SO here's the dilemma. We are traveling in Wed night and my DH will be with us until Friday morning. After that, it will be me and the little one- she's 5 and pretty advanced for her age. When picking out fast passes she wanted TTOT and Splash Mountain. She meets the height requirements so we will see how that goes! I showed her youtube videos and explained the process to her, and she was gung-ho on going. I'm more scared than she is!!

But I digress. We are going to MVMCP, and I want to know what YOU think are the highlights to not be missed. We are also going to be around MK 2 other days, so some of the things we could do on other days, I'd like to leave out the night of the party. I want it make it all about MVMCP. She loves to dance, so anyone have any experiences with the dance parties? Is one better than the other? What unique characters can you meet? and any tips? I would LOVE to meet Sandy Claws. We will def do the parade. Any tips would be awesome!

Is the Jungle Cruise the Jingle Cruise the entire time or just during the party?

Also, we are going to Epcot. Already got the candlelight package. I really wanted to hear all of the different story tellers in the countries, but I don't know if I'll be able to time it right. Which ones would you say are MUST sees and which ones could you do with out? She has a french nanny, so I know we need to go there. She's learned about a bunch of different countries, so I think it would be neat for her to hear about the different cultures. Especially Kwanzaa and Hanukah.
What would you guys recommend?

We're doing some other stuff as well, but I fell pretty solid in those plans. I think I'm going to make a trip journal this time and post it. :)

Thank you so so much in advance for your advice!!
