Yesterday (Fri) was at MK, MGM and Epcot. All parks had what I thought was normal size crowds. I don't go on attractions hardly at all, but went to Philharmagic and spent only about 10 min in line to give an example, but things change from day-to-day so take it with a grain of salt.

The parks are empty. I went on the 16th and we barely hit any lines. Get there early in the morning and you can basically ride all the major rides with little or no wait. We went right when MK opened and rode: SM, SM, BTM, Buzz, Haunted Mansion, all with less then 5 minute or no wait. It was toatally awesome! We stayed til closing and experience very low lines late at night as well on rides like: Pooh, Snow White, Philharmagic, Peter Pan. Do fast pass for Test Track that was our longest wait 60 minutes! The ride isnt that great for that long of a wait. Also do FP for Tower of Terror and Rock N Roller Coaster. PM me if you have other ?s i love to talk disney

Here now and outside of MK in the afternoon on Thursday, the rest have been great. 20 min waits on the popular rides.

My son and I did MK this morning. I didn't think the crowds were bad at all.

When I checked into PC this morning,(at 2:00am) I was told that they were completly booked.

Cape May Cafe started turning away walk ins before they even opened for dinner.

We came to DisneyQuest after dinner. The lines here are pretty short.

Last week was school holidays for much of the Northeast and WDW was crowded. We were told that the hotels were very full. The parks were extremely crowded for walking around, but oddly the attraction lines weren't too bad. (do people go on attractions anymore or just walk around?) World Showcase for example was crowded at all times of the day - restaurants were packed - probably due in part to the flower festival. It was difficult to walk five feet without bumping into someone. Attractions were actually a break from the crowd!

Epcot was VERY crowded today. I was surprised at just how many people were there for this "quiet" time of year.

The parking lot was relatively full.... when we arrived around noon, they were parking in Discover, the last section of the parking lot on the right... the last section on the left had not been used yet.

The wait for everything was long! We even tried to walk into a late lunch in Canada, and had to wait 45 minutes. Shortly after, they began turning people away as all PS's were taken for dinner for the night. I watched the CM at the podium try to find PS's for another restaurant in Epcot, and I think the family got their fourth choice!

The park cleared out quickly after the rain began around 2:30, but the evening crowd was pouring in as we were leaving around 5pm.
