Who Was there 11/6- 11/12?? Besides me( Trip Report)

[Disney Wanderer]

Im Just Curious , How Many of you were There This week ? If you Werent you Missed out On a Great Week.
Crowd wise Sun Was Not bad At all . I was in the MK Pretty Much Every Ride Had Posted a 10 minute wait Or Less . And On the Big Rides Mabey 20-30 at most. and it was Cold!
>
Mon. I was in AK in the Morning , More Low Crowds, with 25 Minutes on Everest
And Of Course the Kilamanjaro Safari was 80 at one point, as It always is All the Other rides Were 10 - 15 Minutes. and the Character Lines weren't Bad either.... I Later Ended up In Epcot ,Around 4pm Big Difference in Crowds especially In the World Showcase, It Seems the Food and Wine Festival Draws crowds , Especially Later in the Day. But i Was Able to ride Soarin , Test Track ( Single ) , Spaceship Earth, And Nemo All With Minimal Waits, well Soarin had a 40 Minute wait , but thats Minimal For IT
>
Tue. Back to Epcot, to see Everything I didnt See The Previous Night Crowds were Great Most of the Day . with Soarin and Test Track Both Posting A 60 Minute Wait At Best, I should Mention Hanson Was there For the Concert Mon+Tue And that Place was Packed with Screaming! Fans, rest of the park Was Not , thankfully LOL Overall Not a Bad Day
>
Wed. I returned to The MK Crowds Were Definatly Higher , Average waits Were Still only 15 -20 Minutes , With the Big Rides 45 Minutes
Wed. Crowds increased Slightly With Wait times On Average 15- 20 Mins In the MK. With the Big Rides Reaching 45-50, peter pan included, weather wise it Started to Warm up a bit , but I was ready for that it was so "cool" the 2 days before
>
Thu. I was in DHS and It Seemed a Lot More Crowded To me, But it Could Be Its A Smaller Park With Less Big Attractions ( Lets Work on this Disney LOL) Than the Other Parks, but Of Course ,Big Shock , Toy Story Mania Was 110 Minutes Atone Point, yes it STILL is like that, And By the Way If your Hoping For a Fast-Pass youd Better RUN to That Fastpass Machine, they Were all Gone by 10:30.. None of the Other Ride Lines were Bad at all , Mabey 20-30 Minutes at most. that Night I went to tht First Fantasmic show, I got in line at 4:30, for the 6:30 Show. the Line was Already Insane. Im glad i didnt wait I wouldntve Gotten in , that wouldve Thrown the rest of the night off . A lot Of People Got Turned Away From the Early Show And had to Come Back at 8:00... After Fantasmic I Went to See the Osbourne Family Of Lights. It was AAmazing , I forgot it Snowed there , thats A Nice Touch
>
Fri. I Started Off in AK , Crowds were A little more than Monday, Could be that It Was a PM EMH Day , But Overall It was Very Manageable. That Night I Decided to Go to the Christmas Party , I Loved Is , Christmas Wishes Is the Most Amazing Fireworks Ive ever Seen. I Met A bunch Of Characters , Abu, Genie, Jasmine, Aladdin, The StepSisters, and Lady Tremaine And the 7 Dwarves , I dont Know it Seemed Kind of low on Characters this Year
>
Overall I had a Great Time ,Ill Definatly Be Choosing this Week to Go Again in the Future ( Dont tell Anyone ok LOL)

My husband and I were there for only a long weekend. We arrived on Fri., Nov. 5th and left on Monday the 8th, and we stayed at the Swan.

We went to Epcot all day Sunday and were at the Animal Kingdom on Monday. Lines were fine. We were at rope drop each day and used Fastpasses judiciously. The longest we waited to ride in Epcot was maybe 5 minutes, because of Fastpasses.

In the Animal Kingdom, we had Fastpasses for the safari, so while we waited until we could use them, we rode Expedition Everest for the second time. First time we just walked on, the second time we waited maybe 15 minutes.

Yes, it was cold, especially on Sunday evening, waiting for Illuminations! But, hardly any crowds. I'd go back in early November any year!

I was there too. We flew down Nov 5 and I left Nov 10. The waits were great. The longest wait (besides SM because it broke down) was the 20 mins we waited in the fastpass line for Peter pan.We only waiting about 30mins for SM in standby but had FP that we used later that night. But were at the parks at ropedrop and used FP. It was great! We hit all 4 parks on Sat. We even had time for a nap Sat afternoon.I was also able to lay by the pool Mon and Tues. We were able to see Osborne Lights on Mon PM during EMH. We also walked on to TSM 3 times at 1030pm. F&W was going on which we did Sat PM which was really fun. I already want to go back this time next year! My only complaint was it was so cold Sat and Sun I had to wear my mittens. Duffy we stayed at the Swan too couldnt bet the location!

I just wanted to let you know that I have pulled your just back/any questions thread from the board. We know you are excited to share your knowledge about your trip, but unfortunately, we can't allow this type of thread. On any given day, we have dozens of DISers just back from trips, and if we allowed this type of thread, the boards would be hard to navigate if many posters posted this type of thread.

Additionally, the moderators feel that this type of thread is a personal message to the original poster, which is against DIS guidelines.

We encourage posters to share their knowledge and experiences by answering questions, and sharing a trip report on the trip report board Thank You Danny
