Hi Heather. While I can't speak to the reason for your friend's experience with crowds recently, I can tell you confidently that the week you are visiting (November 9 - 16) is a great time to visit. As a frequent visitor to Disney (I live here in Florida so its a bit easier), the weeks in November before Thanksgiving are relatively light compared to nearly all other times of the year. In addition to lighter crowds and lines, another terrific reason for traveling is the weather. November is just beautiful. So worry not -- I think you will find you chose a really good time of year. Enjoy your trip!
