Spring Break Survival Thread

[Dinglehoper]

It's mostly been in the late 60's from what I've noticed the last couple weeks. We had a bit of rain last week but it seems to be getting more springy and less winterish. When we were at Disneyland Sunday there was a flock of baby ducks running around in the grass in front of the castle. I'd say that's a good sign weatherwise.

Exciting! Hopefully the weather will be nice!

got to be better than what we are having today...very windy and LOTS of rain! I'm happy with 60's in DL!

and we get to do the single digit dance today

We are two days away from leaving for our road trip, and five days from our first day in DL! We are only going to be in the parks a day and a half though, which is making me really worried

It'll be great! Just bring a good touring plan and hit the parks early. Congrats on being so close!

My first post to this thread. Our family leaves on Monday, 4/1! DH and I visited as youngsters over 30 years ago. I still have my ears!! This will be DS (10 years old) first trip. Tonight at dinner, we were dreaming out loud about "what will we be doing this day next week at exactly this time?".

We fly PDX to LAX, take the shuttle and are staying at the Fairfield Inn. Our trip is from 4/1 to 4/5. We are prepared for busy crowds, but a dear friend shared a helpful/kind observation - he said when he visited Disneyland with his family, it was really busy, but he doesn't remember the crowds, he remembers the magic and the special time with his family.

I have read books, on-line resources and bought a touring plans subscription. We want to be prepared, but expect to "wing" it a bit as necessary. We don't have any dinner reservations. We plan to arrive at the park early, rest/swim/etc. at the motel in the afternoon and return for the evening.

Any suggestions for which park-which day for Magic Morning is appreciated!

Thanks!!!

Welcome! I'll add you to the first page. Unfortunately this is my first trip, so I'll have to leave good advice to the veterans

Getting closer for us too!!!! We are already very excited! I am wondering what the weather will be like at the end of April. I hope for some nice, warm weather.

pnwsurfer, when you come back please post about your experience. We will be staying at the same hotel, so I would appreciate any tips you will have to share!

Counting days!!!

 

[aroundtheriverbend]

2 days for us!!! We fly out at 7:45 Friday morning, 2 days on the Queen Mary, then off to DLR!!

 

[elphie101]

2 weeks for us!! Crazy to think we won't even have landed for another hour and half at this time, blegh. I keep wanting to start packing but it's just too early!

The only thing left to do is book the airport shuttle - I'm leaning towards Super Shuttle but I just don't know! any recommendations?

 

[sophies*mom]

How exciting! Its getting closer for all of us, finally!
