We went last year Mon and Tues before Thanksgiving and it was the same thing by 1 or 2:00. We'd just go back to the hotel until night time because we couldn't deal with it.
Bummer about your camera ~ I hope it turns up and soon. As for crowds *our days were Thurs-Sat and we had a great time, arrived prior to park opening, took a mid day break and went back late afternoon. A CM Thurs. evening told me that that day had been the least crowded of the week *so far*
We were there the Fri and Sat after Thanksgiving. I felt like it was much more crowded on Friday and Sat was more manageable. Still too crowded for my liking though. And it was coooooold. We went the first week of January this year too, and wore shorts! We have made three trips recently- last week of July 2009, first week of Jan 2010 and now after Thanksgiving 2010. The after Thanksgiving crowds were def the worst. Jan was slightly less crowded than July, but it was understaffed and wait times were long. Dh is a teacher and unfortunately we go to DLR when everyone else does too. One of these years I will convince him to take off some weekdays.
