    We are trying to decide between coming to DW on 11/20/09 or 12/26/09 and staying for 8 days. Is Thxgiving that much more crowded that the week after Xmas? Also, we will save about 700.00 because my daughter will still be 2 in Nov. she turns 3 on 12/20.

    Without a doubt I would come in November Rodney!  The first few days of your vacation  you should find the parks very easy to maneuver around with small to moderate crowds. As you get closer to the actual Thanksgiving holiday you will find the crowds build up.  I always recommend that families need to tour the parks in the early days and get a good visit to all the attractions.  When it starts to get busy they can take their time and return to do repeat rides or use that time to enjoy the resort amenities and swim or other types of recreation.

    The week of Christmas is very busy!  And why not save that money on a ticket for your little one unless you felt it was important she be there on her birthday.
