Crowds and the rest of the park

[nymomof3]

I am a compulsive worrier and all of you have been so great with all my questions, i was just wondering when your there during a busy time(easter) how are the rest of the parks, can you walk around, can you enjoy the shows, and the water play areas or is it just unbearable with people all over. i want to be able to enjoy the parks also. we will have fotl. is that also good for shows and other stuff. please forgive me for being annoying. but a big THANK YOU to all you

don't worry u can ever ask too many ?'s fotl access works for all shows as well and with fotl u can enjoy the pay areas etc as u have no reason to rush about also the best part is when and if u feel its too much u head back to hotel pool and enjoy that just remember with shows u need to plan getting there about 20 min before show to get seated etc, also u must ask at Shrek for fotl its not advertised to park guests

In USF there is a play area with nerf balls the kids can shoot from guns. There are about 4 of them on the upper level.
In IOA in the Jurassic Park play area in Pteranondon Flyers, there are water guns the kids and squirt people below.
On Me Ship Olive Boat above Popeye, there are squirt guns.
If you go to these little side attractions at a busy time, your kid will have to wait for a gun.

The other reason to go early is to get front seat rides on Hulk and Deuling Dragons.

Depending on when you go, it gets hot in the afternoon. So even with FOLT, it's still a good idea to visit the parks early, come back to the hotel in the afternoon when it's hot, rest, change cloths, and go back late afternoon as the tired leave.
