Hope to see you there!

    The 13th is a Saturday, so it will probably be crowded, with Friday crowded, but not as bad as Sat and then Thursday less crowded of the 3.

    Also, when does the Christmas parade start?

    CHristmas season and the Christmas Parade will start Friday, November 14th, but I might be wrong, and they might not start until November 21st.

    As for the Candlelight Processional, it tends to held in December, my guess the 6th and 7th (no way will they hold it the weekend before, since Thanksgiving is the 27th this year.)
