EEH has been added for the first time for Animal Kingdom on Nov 8th from 7pm - 9pm.
Just the one date so far……
Definitely worth it IMO for AK after dark, especially Pandora.

We did a couple of after dark safaris. I wouldn't want them to be the only safari I did on a trip, but they were still pretty cool.

Very cool. We arrive on Nov. 8! However, we arrive 4:45PM, have to get the car, groceries and check in. So this may be a stretch. We shall see.
Cheers.

I will be there during that timeframe. How do you go about booking. I know there is no cost, but do you need to reserve a spot or something?

And have the groceries delivered. The only problem with that is that I believe you now have to meet your delivery driver if you order alcohol. Disney have reportedly stopped accepting alcohol deliveries. |

And I am, but what do they do, just check your MagicBand when you go in or if you try to get on a ride during that time?

Yes. They’ll scan at each ride entrance. |

Disney have reportedly stopped accepting alcohol deliveries. Thanks. But we want to get what we want and may not know specifically what that is (we have general ideas, but make game time decisions), so personal shopping is the only option for us. And there might be wine 
We've done delivery at home occasionally, when it's specific Walmart-branded (Great Value) or similar items. But not for cases like this. If I'm getting avocados or onions, I want the ones I want.
Cheers.

No DVC trips in November for us. But I am always happy for extended park hours, especially for my Christmas/NYE trip!

We have a large family group that will be there Nov 8th.
Most of us will be at Boulder Ridge, but some family members will be at FW campground—-1 brother and wife in their motor home; the other brother and wife in a cabin ( so they can bring their dog).
We do not have the max booked in our villas at Boulder Ridge.
Any way to show them as guests in our villas so they could attend with us?
2 bedrm with 6 and 2 studios with 4 each ( 1 child is only 2).

Plus it's fun (for me, anyways) to browse a grocery store in a different area than my own...find new cool stuff. And even at home, if I'm shopping for alcohol, I usually don't know what I want until I see it on the shelf. |

Their selection here in Cali is excellent, both Kirkland and name brands. And the prices are unbeatable.
When traveling it's only wine. And I find that the $15 price range in varietals I like yields very good results if I buy from areas I know.
Cheers.
