Welcome! GCH will be wonderful all decked out for the holidays!
We will be there Nov 3-10, staying at Candy Cane Inn. I’m hoping to take it slow and steady too. We have 5 day park hoppers with G+. My husband claims he doesn’t like rides (he’s never been to Disney so I plan to change his mind lol) but I definitely want to plan a slow-paced well-rounded trip with a combo of rides, shows, shopping, sit-down meals, and breaks.
), and my husband has never been. I’m super excited but also feel so out of my element as a Disney World veteran.
I'm so tempted to do WOC dessert party! I haven't seen the new show. My only hesitation is being a party of two, and likely being sat with another couple. They didn't realize it was shared seating for small parties and were clearly upset. It was awkward!
Oh, this is good to know! I’m tempted to do alllll the dessert parties/dining packages (which I realize means 2
) and that would be an unpleasant surprise to find out then and there. They used to seat multiple smaller parties together at the big tables at Biergarten in Epcot (but not sure if they still do that- our family of 4 had our own table in December), so we’re not completely against it but definitely prefer knowing ahead of time.I registered just for this thread. 11/18-11/25 staying at Suncoast Park Inn. Probably going to USH one day for nintendo land. This will be our second year in a row of going during Thanksgiving week, we're considering doing it every year. We too are very excited.
Welcome! That's exciting about USH. I haven't been in ages...I always end up picking more Disney days over Universal. One of these days I will have to be strong and resist the Disney urge!
We live about two hours from WDW and had so much fun going last November we are genuinely considering doing it every year. We absolutely love the vibe at DLR and that puts a lot of shine on it from WDW in our opinion. The sheer amount of attractions in such a small area along with how close and cheap offsite hotels are compared to the tourist trap that WDW hotels essentially are really make us love it. We find the people there just so much more relaxed, even at Thanksgiving. Whereas WDW during holidays can feel like Mad Max. We also think the food is just so much better at DLR that it's almost embarrassing eating at WDW now. You will go back to the Magic Kingdom's adventureland and get a craving for Bengal Barbecue. You're going to love it, not to mention you can walk streets that Walt Disney walked, and even see some cool park history like the test bricks and the employees door of the lumber company. It figures we would love it so much when we can drive to WDW and DLR is a 5 hour flight.My husband and I are going (without the kids!) to celebrate my 40th! November 12-17, one night at Candy Cane Inn before moving to Disneyland Hotel for the rest of the trip. I‘ve only been twice, with the last time being when I was 7 (you do the math!
