How crowded can we expect it to be? Thank you in advance for your help.

On the other hand the hours will be long, and there will be lots of special events, like the Christmas Parade and the lights in the Studios and everything else. So it's certainly possible to enjoy yourself. The more crowded it is the more neccessary it will be for you to plan well so you don't spend your entire vacation standing in a line.

I truned and said,: Well the person in frount of me stoped and the person in frount of them stoped and so on and so on. He was not to pleased. I guess what I'm trying to say is expect lots of people, some grumpy some not. Enjoy the Christmas decor and have a good time.
