Hint: Their price varies sometimes day to day. The price you arrive at is what you pay during your stay..  We planned and arrived at $35(which was less than 1/2) and stayed a week.  Was at valentines. If you take parking and getting into park early ( 1 hour) plus travel time into consideration it can help offset high price; even at full price. For those who are lucky enough to live in a tropical setting it probably is less attractive.  For this lazy snowbird it was a pleasant experience.  Bob

This is prime time for them, Heck we have had our reservations for 18 months now and its been payed for almost a year also now. Like bob said if your from the north its good to go south and get some warmth, plus the kids are only little once. This will probably be our last time to disney at least for quit a while there is to many other places to see also. Jason

If you are going to do Disney then staying on property is the only way to go. No traffic. No parking. No hassle. Disney is expensive. But staying inside is a great treat, Nobody frowns at you or says a cross word while there. That is also a cost consideration

Jason,
Something we discovered, by accident on the first Disney trip in 19899 (first trip for youngest at five and a half), wasto  enter the whichever park early. Leave about lunch time. Lunch in the park can be inexpensive with careful checking. Then a water park for a few hours. Or the pool at the campground. Then back to the coach. Cleanup/rest/supper then pick your evening entertainment and enjoy.  That change of pace from rides to water is relaxing. When everybody else is exhausted in the late afternoon your family is rested and ready for the evening. Thunder Mountain is great during the fireworks. No lines.

I, too will be at Disney during Thanksgiving. Planning to stay with my SIL for a day at one of the parks hotels. My alma mater (University of Dayton) will be playing a pre-season basketball tourney at the ESPN center.
I will get the exact location and get back to you all.

I do not anticipate a problem parking my 35er in the parking lots, just anticipate a long walk.

Experience is something you get Just after you needed it....
