Parks are great. Waited less than half hour for mine train, 10 min wait for soaring. Most things are walk ons.

Life is good.:cool:

Hmmm, maybe they'll inject some extra sleeping 'synthetic' hormones into the turkey and everyone will be passed out over the weekend! ;)

Give it a another couple of weeks until the F&W hit then up the numbers go! Over Labor day weekend when we did our vacation it was nice like that as well!! Didn't even use many of the FP we booked because we could just get on right away!

Oh yeah, don't think the Food & Wine Festival starting early this year isn't to bump up September crowds. Disney doesn't want any low times.

With all of the folks posting about being down there next week (me included) sounds like it the crowds might go up. I definitely hope not.

We leave in 9 days also - a little worried about crowds because now they're starting the F&W festival a week earlier. Can't wait!

September has always been a great time for the parks. School just starting back, most families are hesitant to take kids out of school that soon, so you get the bare minimum crowds. Great time to go!

We were there August 30th to September 7th and the crowds were low. We noticed if you hit the parks, first thing, & did the really popular rides you could walk right on. Some rides we didn't even use the FP+ passes.

Later in the day Soarin', Mine Ride, Toy Mania, Splash Mountain (rides like that) had wait times of 45 to 60 minutes in the afternoon.
