Santa's at Hotels/Parks

Not quite sure where this thread should land, so please feel free to move it....

We are headed to Disney next Friday and my DW and are were talking about trying to get some pictures of our DS (6 months) with a Santa because we remember from our Xmas trip that they had some of the best we have ever seen, especiall the one at Wilderness Lodge.

Our question is, will there be any around for picture taking this early????

Usually they aren't out until Thanksgiving week or after. The one at DTD might be out that early. Not sure about that. The one at MK is another possibility. I don't remember seeing any at the resorts in November.

I con't ever recall seeing Santa at the resorts during Thanksgiving, and we've been a few times. Santa did visit WL Christmas week last year. For some reason I've always been under the impression that Santa only visits the resorts during Christmas week.

for some reason i recall santa a few years ago at america in world showcase the week after jersey week. the past couple of years we have shifted to early december but i am relatively sure that he was at the america pavilion some where in early to mid november. and it was pretty cool, beautifully set up.

We usually go every year in early December and I have not seen Santa at a resort. When we have been in November, the resorts usually start decorating Thanksgiving week.

Santa will be starting at Downtown Disney on Nov 16th.

Holidays around the World starts in Epcot on Nov 23rd. I'd expect that would be when Santa shows up but I can find any confirmations.

Mickey's Very Merrry Christmas Party starts Noc 9th. Santa is in the parade, so perhaps they will start the Santa meet and greets at the same time.
