    And... how are the crowds in early November?

    Thanks in advance for any info/input :)

By the last day there the big Christmas trees were up, they were filming the Christmas Parade, and a lot of the garlands and decorations were up. Neither the lights on the castle or the lights on Small World were finished though.
