October or November?

Hi

Its me again forever asking questions. We just cant decide now when to go.

We both loved the MNSCHP this year and wouldnt mind seeing this again in October. We would also love to see the lights in November or seeing MVMCP.

The reasons we cant decide is because of crowds, weather etc....

Which month is better for crowds? We know October the weather will be much better than November. We wouldnt want to go in November and see the MVMCP or the lights if the crowds are overly high and the crowds are less in October. We only went in October this year and some days the rides were 15 mins tops even for the bigger rides, but some days an hour. It was a hit and miss. When I came back people said it was much busier this year than the rest. People were not sure whether it was the 50th Anniversary celebration or the 50th Food and Wine Festival.

Please help us decide which month to go in. We are terrible at making desicions LOL

Thanks
Michelle

Either time is ideal to go, would say it would probably be more crowded in October but having said that the weather is perfect.

If you have tried October before then maybe go November next time, the weather should still be pleasant.

Depending on when in October you go the flights can be a lot more due to half term.

It will be 9tOctober for two weeks or the 15th November for two weeks.

If it was me, I would do October!

The weather's a little bit warmer, though I suppose you need to factor in the fact that it is still Hurricane Season.

The benefits of the F&W festival, MNSSHP and the weather would make October the choice for me - but to be fair I have not been in November. I have travelled in early December though, and the crowds are very low, and my experience was that the weather was - erm - cold! This was only one year though so could have been an anomaly

I would go the first two weeks in November, the weather is great and the crowds are non existent!! Also by about the 15th of November the Christmas decs should be up. Plus you will miss Thanksgiving when it gets really busy.
