November it is! Anyone Going Week Before Thanksgiving?

[WaltD4Me]

Finally decided on November 13th this year for my next trip. It feels so good to be planning again. I was thinking about holding off until early March, but it's just too far away. Tried for Disapalooza, but can't swing those dates at work so November 13-18th it is. Same time I went last year. Excited to do Festival of the Masters again. I hope it's a tad cooler this year though. Anybody else for the 3rd week of November?

Wish we were going! Hopefully it isn't crowded for you!

 

[scrappinDW]

We will be there!!!
My sister (first trip) my brother (third trip) and me (eleventh trip). My nephew and his girlfriend might be joining us.
We will be at the Yacht Club. Can't wait.

Just booked a trip two weeks ago for November 13th through the 18th. Trying hard to get ADRs and the parks planned out. We (DH and myself) are staying at POP, how about you?

 

[todd222222]

We will be there Nov 12 - 20th. Plan to check out the Festival of the Masters as well. Very interested in this.

Myself, DW, DD(9), DD(7) and Exchange Student from Norway (16). Staying at Pop Century and looking forward to a great trip with "small" crowds.

Going to try Akershus for Dinner for the first time. Should be fun to have to our student give us her opinion of it.

Nov 10th to 20th at Caribbean Beach (just changed from POFQ to save extra coin). See you 'round the world.

That might be my next trip but it would be next year, not this year. I am considering making the Space Coast marathon in Cocoa Beach my fall 2012 full but haven't decided yet.

When I lived in Clearwater I would head over that week quite often because we were pretty slow at work the week leading up to Thanksgiving and I could get out of the office for a day during the week which was rare. The weather is great, the crowds were pretty small early in the week, and the Christmas stuff was starting to go up. I believe in more recent years more of the Christmas stuff has been up the week of Thanksgiving but at the time (2003 and 2004) it was kind of a process that ended on the night of Thanksgiving.

I think you picked a great time to go. October and November were my favorite months when I lived in FL because the crowds were lower, the weather more mild, and it was such a different feeling than Halloween and Thanksgiving in NE Ohio as I'm sure you can relate to.

We will be at OKW nov 13-19!

BLT baby, Nov. 12-19. This will be our 2nd year at WDW for that week. It was lovely last year. The only crowded place was the Osborne Lights but even they were not too bad. I love the weather, low crowds and Christmas decorations then.

Is anyone going to the Food and Wine Festival??? The only day we will be able to go is the 13th, the last day.
Do you think we will still be able to try everything?

 

[MinnieDiva]

AKL the 16th-20th!

Good question. We will be there too that day (I still think Sunday is better than Friday or Saturday, even if its the last day.) Honestly, I would think that they will for the most part not run out of food, but I suppose it could happen.

 

[TinkerChelle]

Yes we will be there, too. 11-6 to 11-19 @AKL.

That was our plan too! I did make an ADR just in case we get there at noon and they're closing up.

 

[basketlacey]

We'll be there! AKL the 12th - 19th. We are doing F&W on Sunday!

So dumb question - but what is the Festival of the Masters?

 

[Brook1099]

Nov 4-19th, I week at timeshare outside and 1 week at AKVillas. 25 days and counting, love this time of year @ Disney !!!! I wonder how many of us DISers we pass on a given day in the parks.

Hey all, I will be wearing my Lime-Green Mickey Head tag with my name "SkierPete" on it on both the front and back of my backpack. I will likely also have a Buffalo Bills or Sabres baseball hat on. If you see me across a crowded park - yell "HEY SKIERPETE"! I promise I will not glare or scowl at you.

 

[jrmartinez]

Will be at the Pop Nov 16-21st. Anxiously counting down the days.

 

[Buffman]

We'll be there from 12-19 Nov at OKW. Wish we had the next week to miss only 3 days of school, but oh well. Hope the night temps are better than 2 yrs ago...wasn't prepared for 50's.
