We've been at this time of year.

- Cold. Very cold. Take hats and gloves. Warm ones. and Extra socks.
- Minimal to non existant queues, especially early morning, if you book breakfast in the park you will have a good hour or two with Fantasyland to yourself. We rode Dumbo 3 times without getting off, same with Small World. (punishment I know!)
- Continental Europeans (they are all the same) are rude and inconsiderate, get stuck in and hold your position in queues and when there is a parade. Dirty looks and moaning in English will get you nowhere.
- Definately have dinner in the Disneyland Hotel, Inventions buffet. Splendid view of the park, being dark at 6, spread the meal out and a view of the fireworks whilst enjoying your pud and a drink or two will warm you spirits.

Have a great time.

Very cold we did new year a few years ago and very busy never done november though. The people push and shove you no matter where you are just hold firm and don't let them get away with it, they even pushed my DD out of the way and she was only 5 at the time:angry: Have a good time and the parks are lovely.

I'm thinking of going again this November. Yes it is cold but from 7th onwards it is Christmas and Christmas is cold for us Brits so I think it makes it even more magical. The tree the snow and Mickey in bug woolly jumpers is believable as believe me he needs it.

We went in December last year, my 15yr old son said "These are the coldest days of my life" :pgig:
It was great & I'd thoroughly recommend it, Hot Chocolate stops everywhere, no big deal with the queues really, better for you as it's November.
You'll have a great time, take plenty of warm clothes

We are going in December and I think thermal undies are going to be required!

We are going 6th to 8th November. Just a note to remember. It may not be as minimal as people think. The 7th Is a bonfire spectacular and I know that over the 5th through to the 7th there are very few if any seats left on Eurostar. They have even put on another train on the 6th at 11am and that too is full. So if this is an indication, it could get very busy with us Brits. We went last november around the same time and it was crisp but not freezing. We only wore our gloves one evening and it was damp more than anything (not raining just damp). Its a great time to go as the Christmas decorations are all up.

I,ve another question, we are going to stay at the Santa fe hotel.Do the Disney hotels have list of which characters are visiting the Hotels?.

In the foyer of the hotel is a board which tells you when the characters are coming so you can meet them and get autographs. You can also ask at the desk. Often its Mickey or Minnie, Pluto or Chip n Dale dressed in costumes akin to the hotel. When we stayed at Cheyenne Chip n Dale were dressed as indians! You will get that 'official' photographer trying to move you along so they can take the purchasable piccies.
