I have wondered if my late October timeframe - as compared to most (all?) of the above - will make a difference. Still, if we can do even some of what is described above we will be happy with that, since we will use pre-party time for some experiences, and a few during the party itself.
I appreciate your alternative viewpoint!
I think with that mindset, you will be ok. I would recommend G+ for that day if you can swing it in your budget.
I think based on what my group is hoping they will do, G+ will be a daily thing for us. thanks!
@OBNurseNH what night will you be at the party? I’m considering attending the party on 10/26 
I’m torn between paying for the party or just paying for the day at MK and enjoying lower crowds. We are staying at universal this trip so I want to make sure our trek over to disney is worthwhile!
10/27 will be with my family plus mom and aunt. Won’t really be a meet up situation unfortunately
