Anyone there right now, how are crowds?

We leave on Thurs and are concerned after reading someone's trippie about crowds. We were told the week before and after easter are crazy, so we decided to go mar 26-apr2.

I am a little freaked out now after reading someone who just got back and said they were insane!

we actually decided to cut our upcoming spring break trip from 8 days to 4 after dealing with the terrible crowds over Valentine's day.

We're anticipating that this trip will be a lot more about lounging at the pool and a lot less about rides.

my birthday was last week - so went then. for that week the crowds were probably about average.

but it is not a good week for visiting the parks.

spring break is in several southern state counties. of course that is true for most of March, April.

now if you aren't just going to the parks - it is wonderful time. the flowers are blossuming and shurbs that only blossum now - are in full steam. It is beautifully and mean beautifully.

go by the wonders of life - the flower/garden shows, demonstrations are happening there.

We just returned yesterday from a five day trip. All parks were busier than I ever remember seeing them (though I've never been during Christmas or Easter). Spring break is in full force. We saw lots and lots of families and youth groups. I was really surprised considering the state of the economy. I guess buy 4 get 3 free is working. The crowds each day were predicted to be 6's and 7's. I found them to be more like 9's.

Have fun on your trip!

We're here now too. Sat. 3/21- MK, Sun. 3/22- DHS, Mon. 3/23-- EPCOT & DD, Today 3/24- AK. We don't leave until Saturday. It's definitely busy. Busier than we've seen in awhile. We always come the last full week of March. I agree that there are a lot of spring breakers---high school and college age kids. Sunday the all Fastpasses for Toy Story Mania were gone by noon. We walked by the ride around 6 p.m. and the wait time was 150 mins!! Who's crazy enough to stand in a line that long?? (Probably those high school/college kids I mentioned earlier.) If you do the Fast Pass thing right and plan accordingly--you'll be fine.

I am hoping for some disney magic that it is at least manageable if we are there at rope drop!
