What to pack for mid-November?

[MJwritestuff]

I'm sure it's been posted here before, but I couldn't find it anywhere. If you were going November 15-22nd, would you pack mainly pants, shorts, or a combo of both?

We have three kids under ten, and try to minimize what we bring. I plan on packing some shorts, but a majority of capris and light pants with short sleeve shirts, with jackets for nighttime. Does this sound right for this time of year?

If anyone has been to the parks in mid-November, I'd love to hear what you think about the weather conditions. We're planning some pool time at the Poly, and a trip to Typhoon Lagoon. Thanks as always for the help!

Capris, clamdiggers and light pants are the way to go normally for that time of year. My mom also always had us bring one pair of jeans and one pair of shorts just in case. T-shirts still came but a light jacket and sweatshirts did too. I remember the first year we went for Thanksgiving, we ended up buying another sweatshirt at the parks so bring two if you can manage to fit it. Just look at the weather reports before you go and try to judge if you need to change your packing job. You can always do a quick load of laundry if something comes up like a heat wave or cold front. Hope this helps!

I think you've got it planned right. Watch the forecasts - we went in mid-November once and there was a cold snap, it was only in the 60's most days. Of course, right after we left it jumped back up to the high 70's. We've gone in early December and it's been low 60's to low 80's, so it's a variable time of year.

I say just bring the bare essentials and buy a bunch of whatever you need with Mickey on 'em
