Freeze go gurts and get some uncrustables. Put them in your bag in the morning and eat lunch in line for a ride instead of at a place in the park. Lines will be shorter around meal times. All park water is filtered so bring bottles and maybe even those little pouches to mix in for flavor. Take advantage of a character meal to get pics there instead on waiting on the park lines for them. My best experience was the 7:30 breakfast with Minnie and friends. When you are early like that not many people are there and you can get great pics! Don't forget to pack your patience 👍😃 - Princessnicci  27.0 #4527 6:16PM

We have had great success with using ride software like ridemax (I am not affiliated in any way). And I think the biggest key is to get there EARLY, as in an hour before the gates open on a non-early entry day if you aren't eligible for early entry, especially if attractions are a priority for your family. Hope this helps! - Disneylights  225.2 #1304 8:07PM

We'll be there too! - LaPearleNoir  574.4 #192 8:13PM

I am going during thanksgiving too. We would always bring packaged tuna. Then just find mayo, relish packets, and a spoon and mix it in the package while in line or just stop and eat. It save money and all you have to pack around the park is a small packet. - Belleslibrary  230.5 #1239 8:29PM

I haven't gone to Disneyland but I've gone to knotts like 50+ times. - chris.  2507.3 #24 10:01PM

welcom3 lurkers!!! or watchers or what I really call you ---MW family we don't know yet!  One request, even if you are too shy to meetup or post, when you are at the parks, please post wait times, it helps everyone else and keeps MW the most accurate.  I met a lot of watchers at glow with the show, so many use the app but forget to post wait times so I thought I would remind everyone.  And at the next "event"  i plan on planning a "first time or shy person meet up." to help with the jitters!!!  Hope to meet you all sonn! - secretagentangel  679.9 #152 10:50PM

Please add me!! My favorite thing about the Haunted Mansion is the credits that are put in to honor the imagineers that made the ride!! - GreenLantern  648.9 #165 4:23PM

Please add me and thank you. My favorite part of the ride are the ghost dancing and the ghost playing the organ. Also love when they turn into NBC for the holidays! - SpaceRAYnger  2423.5 #25 3:57PM
