DL or WDW for next trip?

[VandVsmama]

DL felt "off" on our visit earlier this month. Food cart lines for churros and popcorn? Forget it...6-8 people in line at each cart and it seemed to take forever. Mobile order? Sure, no problem, we did that at WDW earlier this year, but at DL right now, not all of the QS locations are doing mobile order...so you have to look it up every time and then adjust accordingly. It made things stressful.

People seemed more, how to put this, frustrated, angry, and there was a frantic vibe about the park. It was NOT relaxing.

The merchandise for sale was generic, lackluster, uninspiring, and boring.

Ride lines were crazy long. We skipped a lot of things.

Fireworks? People lined up for fireworks over 2 hours ahead of time...I thought I was at Magic Kingdom for a sec.

Also, DTD was insanely crowded. Like, MOBBED with people.

If they had fireworks every night, there would be less pressure to get there early. I was surprised at the number of people 2 hours before and am not taking the risk with Christmas season of arriving that late for fireworks. I'm hoping 2.5 hours before will be enough since I don't like to do 3+ hour waits in the US parks.
