We were at epcot yesterday and was also very manageable, wasn't quite as slow as HS was but was still alot lower crowd than last year at this time. Did have some rain but nothing a poncho couldn't stop, mainly light rain. TT did get up to 145min but alot of that was due to rain delay but outside that everything else was 70min or less. Last year was alot different. TT at 210min , Frozen 180min, Soarin140min, this has been the norm now during xmas over the past 7yr or so. This year has been very pleasant so far. Literally no lines at the qs food and drink. For someone who hasn't been in 10-15yr, then yes the crowds probably seem crazy compared to the last time u were here but I can tell u, the past 10yr has been insane at xmas, almost every year MK has reached capacity on xmas eve and xmas day by 1pm and gates closed. I know cause I was here. Crowds are definitely down compared to recent years. It could just be the crowds are starting to equal out and spread out more evenly throughout the year, this would be good for all, us and Disney. I'm sure we'll get some official analysis after the holidays.
