November Trip - Need Recommendations?

[DHM]

My DH and two DD's ages 17 and 21 will be there Nov. 19-24. We are staying in a pool home/villa. My 21 year old has been three or more times. My DH once a long time ago and my 17 year old and I have never been. Will the Christmas decorations be up? Is there anything holiday related to do at this time of year? Any specific recommendations for us, since we don't have small children, etc.? I have the Unofficial book, DVD and CD and am reading these boards religiously. Thanks!

We visited over Thanksgiving 2005, and when we arrived on November 18th, the Christmas decorations were up. If your into xmas lights, dont miss the Osbourne Lights at MGM... They are great.

Thanks. We are originally from AR and have seen the Osborne lights at their home(s) in Little Rock, so we will be especially interested to see those. Any other special holiday shows, etc. that we should see?

Although most holiday decorations should be up in the parks and hotels, I don't think most holiday shows don't start until after Thanksgiving. The Osborne lights will be up (I believe they start putting them up on August if not earlier) but not sure what is the first night they light them. Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party does not start until after Thanksgiving. Epcot has Holidays Around The World - each county puts on a little show (about 15 minutes) a few times a day about how they celebrate the holiday in their country.
