It's just 8 am and it's already been a great day! Left WL and came to GF for an early breakfast. I can't think of two more beautifully decorated resorts! Spending time in WDW at this time of year is amazing!

Loving this! Just one question, I always thought Thanksgiving Day week meant insane crowds - is that not true?

In just over 90 minutes this morning in MK, we got a lot done! It's getting crowded now. We have been here 4 of the last 5 thanksgivings and find the crowds no different then summer.
