Long title huh? My husband and I are ready to book a trip to WDW during President's Week (I work in a school - the time is non-negotiable.) We've been about 5 times before - always with our now grown kids. We're going alone this time. We absolutely LOVE WDW - more so than our kids!!!
I've read how crowded the parks will probably be that week. I'm pretty sure we'll be OK with it. Here's my reasoning:
I'm one of those people who really believes in "the touring plans" - I do tons of research before every vacation, especially WDW. Long before we arrive, I'll know each park we want to visit each day, what time to get there, where the "extra hours" are, what order to hit the rides, etc.
We will be on our own - no kids. Of course, that totally eliminates lots of stuff aimed at little kids. Having no kids also makes any type of wait we do have just a little more tolerable, if you know what I mean.
Because we've been quite a few times, we really don't feel much pressure to "do it all." We've done most of it already.
So here's what I'm looking for: People who have gone to WDW during President's Week and have found the crowds manageable. My husband and I are both in our early-mid 50's in decent shape. We have no problem with plenty of walking across parks, etc. Anyone out there want to encourage me?
And don't take this the wrong way, but I'd prefer not to hear from people who went during President's week and hated it because of crowds. I know it will be crowded and I know that to some people, it would be horrible. What I'm looking for are the folks who have done it and came out the other side unscathed!!
Thanks -
