November 2024 Check in Thread

Checking-in to see how everyone's November trips have gone so far?! How have the crowds been this week?! I will be at Disneyland on Saturday. It's my 1st time visiting during the holidays. Super excited but a little nervous for the bigger crowds! Most excited for the parade and the treats!
Currently here. Crowds were good Sunday and Tuesday. Insane yesterday. Today they are back to ok. It’s definitely crowded, but if you rope drop, you can get quite a bit done in the first few hours. We haven’t used lightning lanes at all…. I refuse to pay that 🤣. We’ve been on everything multiple times and we are lugging around a group of 10 people.

That's awesome that the crowds have been doable and you haven't had to rely on LLMP! I hope your group is having a fantastic time! Have you watched the evening Christmas Fantasy parade? I am hoping to get decent seats on Saturday but wasn't sure how soon people start camping out for the prime spots. It's just me and my 2-year-old but I am not sure how much of sitting and waiting he will be willing to do for a good spot. Have fun!!!

We keep missing the parade just because the kids we have with us have been wanting to do rides instead. We’ve been many times at Christmas , so the parade isn’t a top priority this time. But for Fantasmic and fireworks, we have just been walking up about 20 minutes before. Town square has been really busy around 5ish just before the parade most days this week. The 5:30 parade starts from there. Maybe try and get a spot further down Main Street or near small world. It’s also been really chilly at night, so bring warm clothes! Yes, our trip has been great so far. We have Friday and Saturday left and then back home to Canada, where it has apparently snowed while we’ve been gone…. And not the kind like on Main Street that smells like gingerbread 🤪

I think taking down the construction walls in NOS helped. When I was there last week, they had tape on the ground for where people could stand and watch Fantasmic. It seemed better organized than it had been in the past.
