At Disney now....

[JodiR]

I am here now. We arrived Friday 8/8. Friday night E-ride night was packed. The weather was great. Saturday and Sunday it rained most of the day. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday...no rain all day. It was great! Monday we did Fantasyland..all rides and saw Ariel in 45 minutes. No crowds at all! We arrived at 9:10. By noon the crowds picked up, but not bad. Epcot on Tuesday...it was hot but no crowds at all. Just thought I would give an update. It has been fun so far.

LUCKY DOG!!! Any day in Disney, crowds or not, is better than any day at work.
Enjoy your trip!

Well I like the no crowds outlook !!

Can you tell me how long were your waits for rides on e-night and what time was your e-night? Also are you doing Early Entry into the parks? Thanks for the update, have fun!!

On E-ride night (Friday) I waited 25 to 30 minutes for Space Mountain. It just seemed so crowded that night. The E-ride night was from 10-1. I did no early entry days. Overall, for my first trip I have had a blast. Staying at AKL...I love it!

I am glad you are having a great time! Isn't AKL the best? I absolutely love staying there!!

Hi there!

I'm curious about your MK day on Monday. Did you mean you did all of Fantasyland and saw Ariel in 45 minutes?

I'm hoping, for our October trip, to be able to do Fantasyland, Tomorrowland, Splash Mountain and maybe Haunted Mansion before the 3:00 parade (on a Monday, also).

Thanks for your insights!

Hope the rest of your vacation goes great, too!

Burleygirl...yes we saw Ariel and all Fantasyland rides in 45 minutes. This was Monday 8/11 and the time was from 9:10 to approximately 10:00. We got on everything...no waits at all. Other people there were so surprised about the lack of crowds. But of course by noon things got busy, but I didn't mind since I had done almost everything I needed to. I was planning on doing MK in two days but didn't need to...got it all done in one (plus E-ride night).

I will give a full trip report when I get back.
