Hello all, I'm a newbie planning my first trip to the Del Rey on the week of New Years.
What can I expect this week? I've read the week of Christmas is dead. What about the week of New Years?

Things start picking up after the first of the year...

the time you are thinking about is not ideal - especially for a newbi

While I personally don't care for the Delrey, you are probably in the right spot - reach out to some resident vetrans - like Bangbang57, EsposodeBarbi, and see what they say

You are a paid member so you are entitled to the map with places marked (good luck using it)

On a positive note, the time you are in San Jose will likely be much better than where you are coming from

(You know, believe it or not I hate to write a downer post - but did you do no research??? You post suggests you did - was this time period the ONLY time you could get to CR?

If so you did the right thing - if not you should have choosen a different time to visit, especially as a new visitor to CR - again, its a better time to visit vs Easter and Holy Week, and some of what you are seekng is available - but you are not seeing San Jose at its best, if you take my point
