Nov 13-16 was crazy

[PrettyFlower2]

Monorail, buses and restaurants were insane. (And this is coming from someone who was there in July).
Stayed at AK lodge. Waiting for bus quite a while some of the time. Other times we didn't have to wait more than 5 minutes.
Boma was insane even with a reservation. Packed. Waitress was stressed. Citricos packed too waiter looked stressed.
Rides not so much of a wait though. Weird...

We are leaving on Thursday and from your post and others, I think this is going to be the busiest Thanksgiving trip yet. I'm getting a little nervous.

The restaurants will be more slammed due to free dining. Even though they are busy doesn't mean long lines for the rides, it sounds confusing but many threads on here will explain it out, if you look it up, relating to FD. Free dining means lots of waiting for restaurants and transportation but not to say rides. So don't have too many worries about being too nervous for your up coming trip, have fun

Just got back last night from a week there (11-17th), and I agree completely.

Yep, it was BUSY. MK and DTD were both write-offs for us. We also stayed at AKL and we weren't impressed with the buses.
