Hmm? Okay, what else did I miss?![]()
You hadn't heard that about Toy Story Midway Mania yet? HydroGuy posted a thread about it not long ago:
http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2417992
Apparently, because of the new Toy Story movie opening this year, all new games will be added to the TSMM ride (I suppose, replacing all the old ones?), and they already have plans to do an eventual Halloween and Christmas overlay (though I would be shocked if they did the holiday overlays this year, so soon after adding the new games). Drat! Just when I had started to get into a nice groove with the games on TSMM and see my scores begin to improve, they are switching them up on me!! Back to Square One!!
In any case, yes, I have a hunch that the already-long line for TSMM will get longer with the new games, because, essentially, it will be like a whole new ride. The line was finally getting down to the 30-minute mark at times, and now it is going to get longer and slower again.

Good Evening!
I have been a lurker on the boards for a while now but now that I am planning my first trip to California/Disneyland by myself I decided it is time to ask some questions. My DBF and I are going to Disneyland/California for a graduation trip (for his undergraduate and my Masters). We are going to be there From October 1-10(possibly 11), 2010. What are the crowds going to be like during this time? We are going to be doing some of the other attractions in LA, Long Beach, Orange county while we are there, but plan on doing Disney for 3 (possibly 4) days during the week (probably Tuesday-Thursday or something). How are the crowds during that first full week of October normally?
I am super excited about this thread and love reading about all the things that we are going to see while we are there!![]()
Hi, chessieiglr8402!!!

Congratulations on getting your Masters (and to your DBF for his undergraduate)!! Sounds like a perfect reason to celebrate with a trip to SoCal!!!

Well, hopefully my fellow DIS-ers who have been helping out on this thread from the beginning will jump in with their opinions/knowledge as well, but my guess is that any time in that first half of October will be pretty crowded, especially based on the large number of AP holders, the growing interest in Halloweentime at DLR and the new stuff coming to DCA (and based on how crowded it was last year in October).
However, I don't know the exact dates of the various Fall breaks, so I am not sure how those will impact the mid-week days you plan to go to DLR. I know Columbus Day is on 10/11, so the weekend preceding it will be crazy. Weekdays will definitely be better than weekends in terms of crowds, I would think. I think that, even if it is super crowded at DLR in the first 2 weeks of October, you should still be okay because you will have 3, or possibly 4, days to spread everything out and get it all done.
Be sure to post some nice photos for us here after you make your trip, and stay tuned to this thread as more info comes in and more photos are added!
