We took our first family vacation to WDW 1/19-1/25. All in all, it wasn't bad. now I dont think that I would have considered the crowds to be 2's and 4's on the days easyWDW said they would be but using some common sense and packing a little patience it was manageable. When we managed to get there at RD or right after, things went well. We did RD at DHS and did ToT (walk on) RnRC (with FP and rider swap DD rode it 3 times in a row), several character meets and a snack all before NOON! On the other side of the coin, we arrived on Saturday, tried to hit the MK at about 230 and it was a NIGHTMARE. We basically walked in a small circle around the castle and left and that took 2 hours. Granted, we arrived at parade time so that was some of it, but the crowd was unreal even off the parade route. I really think, in my limited expereince, that hitting the parks early is the way to go. No matter how forboding the crowds may look, it's really the only way to do it and truly enjoy youself and get the rides you want.
