DH and I are WDW fanatics and since his office is located in San Diego and will pay for both of us to fly out, rental car and we can stay in the company apt, we figured it would be a good and inexpensive mini-vacation to do DL.
How are the crowds usually in the third week of May? Are schools out yet on the west coast? DH wanted to work half days for 4 weekdays (M-R or T-F), spending the afternoon and evening go to the zoo, beach, etc with DD and me. We'd then go to the parks two consecutive days after. I'm worried that the parks are going to be crazy on a Fri, Sat or Sun.
I'd prefer to have him work 3 full days and then spend 2 weekdays at the parks. Like we'd go Mon & Tues, then he could work Wed-Fri. Basically are the crowd levels all that different on a weekend vs a weekday, are we debating this for nothing?
Any tips for the parks? I've been to DL once, 11 yrs ago, DH has never been. The ILs might be coming for the two days we're at DL but we might be solo, which means no MIL to watch DD so we can ride
. Is there a child swap? Any can't miss attractions that are very different than WDW? The only thing I remember is that space mountain is pretty different.
Thanks!
