What have the crowds been like the past few days in WDW??? what are some wait times you've seen throughout the park, and the overal crowds in the parks. Thanks!
 
Just got back last night, was there 10 nights. While it was crowded at some times in the walkways ect. wait times were very reasonable. We never waited more then 15-20 min for anything and we rode all the big rides, most more then once. Lots of the time rides were walk-ons. We used fast-pass alot but even in mid-afternoon at magic kingdom on friday the 18th, we walked onto Buzz with no wait as well as a few other rides. Stand-by times for rides like Peter-Pan, Pooh ect. were usually anywhere from 20-40 min. mid afternoon. I did see long stand-bys for Soarin last week but we walked right onto to mission space in mid-afternoon. on Wed. The weather was beautiful too.
 
We just returned from a 4/25-28 stay. MK on Saturday (Grad Nite) was great. We got there at rope drop and were able to ride everything using "late" fastpass. We rode Peter Pan twice!!:goodvibes

On Sunday, DHS was really crowded after noon. At rope drop it was better, but still quite crowded. Same day, Epcot wasn't that crowded at all, Soarin fastpass return was for 5pm when we got ours at 2pm.
 
We've been here since last Wednesday, but today was the first day we actually visited a park. We went to DHS and it was packed. Most packed I have ever seen it, for this time of year. We are hitting MK tomorrow and Epcot on Wednesday. Hoping for lower crowds, but regardless, it won't stop us from going. :thumbsup2
 

It was still fairly crowded today (We were at DHS today as well :thumbsup2 )

However, I did overhear lots of people with the last day blues... so perhaps many people were reaching the ends of their vacations. Guess I willf figure it out tomorrow as well. :)

So were there less people today? We leave tomorrow morning:banana:

We rode everything we wanted too -- used a lot of Fastpass and utilized EMH (both AM and PM) ... the longest we ever waited was 30 min in standby for ToT -- and that was because we had just gotten there at 4 pm and one of the kids wanted that to be our first ride -- everything else 20 min or less.

The best was Sunday (4/20) we stayed for pm EMH at MK. We had Fantasyland to ourselves ... no joke ... walked onto every ride and there were several characters out ... the kids had them all to themselves -- even caught them riding the carousel. There was nobody there. We stayed until 2am when it closed. That was the best move we made the whole trip!

The only day I really felt it was super-crowded was on Wed 4/23 at AK. I don't know if the walkways are narrower or what, but it was a constant mob of people -- shoulder to shoulder. We saw the shows and rode the rides we wanted to, and left by 4pm. The crowds and heat were more than the whole rest of the week.

I was really planning for the worst, but it wasnt too bad.

You should be good for this week -- any spring breakers are gone, Passover is over ... good luck!
 
we were there 4/18-4/25. We were at the parks at opening did most of our TP but I thought all the parks were mobbed.
