What about right after new years eve? We are thinking about going for a week, new years eve and the following week. I know new years eve is going to be packed but what about post new years eve?
Okay, I totally misinterpreted the title of this thread. I thought it meant "how is it right before Christmas," as in "how is it October already, and how is it that Wal-Mart already has Christmas items for sale?" You know, that kind of thing.
In 2005 we went from Dec. 17-23 and the crowds weren't too bad. It didn't matter which park we went to, each day got a little more crowded, but not horrible.
We were there the week before xmas last year and it was good, but don't go to any early opening park and you'll have a blast. We're looking to book a discounted group trip this year for the 19-23
