It is the perfect time to go!! Our most favorite. Here's why, you get great weather, usually uper 70's, low 80's, you can still swim during the day, no rain, super low crowds because you come AFTER F&W festival, Jersey Week, Super Soaps weekend, and Vet's day, and you leave BEFORE the Thanksgiving crowds arrive. In 2008 Thanksgiving is later, I believe the 27th, so you should be there well after all the events that take place earlier in the month. I have been taking my kids since they were 9 and 8 months old. Now they are 9 and 4 years old and we love our Nov trips the most. You do need to pack a lightweight jacket for the evenings because it sometimes gets a little cool. I also bring 1 pair of pants for each of us just in case. Here's another plus, you get to see the Xmas decorations!!! MVMXP usually starts the second week of Nov so you could catch that too as well as the Osbourne lights. You get to see the resorts all decorated too, it is really beautiful. We'll be there again this Nov and can't wait. I was able to get all my ADR's for when I wanted and snag great rates for airline tickets too!! If you have anyother questions just ask!!! Happy planning!!
Oh, about a way to present the trip as a present, there has been a lot of threads on that topic in the past I would do a search. Sorry I can't be of more help on that. This trip in Nov. we are surprising the kids. I told them we had to cancel our plans and are going in April. They were upset, but OK with it. I plan to pick them up from school early and telling DD(9) she has to go to the dentist!LOL Then I will video tape her in the car as we tell her, change of plans, we're going to the airport to go to WDW!! I can't wait to see their reactions.
