I wish I could tell you all everything but I'll try to make it short. The weather was incredible...80's each day with clear skies, sunny days, and very comfortable.
As for crowds....wonderful! Mon., Tue., and Wed. we had nearly no wait at all for anything! Well, maybe 5 min. for each attraction. We did utilize fastpass when needed which wasn't very often. On Thursday, we did notice crowds picking up a little but still waited no more than 15 minutes. By Friday, we were using fastpass quite a bit. It seemed like there were tons of school groups there. We did Epcot early morning (crowded) and then went on to MK which was also crowded but not as bad as Epcot. Later that night went to see Fantasmic at MGM because we missed it early in the week due to EMH. Fantasmic wasn't busy at all until about 8pm when people really started packing in.
The EMH.................ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!!!! We had more fun in those 3 hours than we had all week. It was fairly crowded but each attraction moved very quickly. They allowed fastpass for that too. In 3 hours this is what we rode (well..2 1/2 because we watched "Wishes" at 9pm). ... Big Thunder x2, Splash Mountain x2, Space Mountain x3, and Buzz x1. Vendors stayed open for drinks, etc. We also did AK on EMH which I thought was only going to be 1 hr. but it was 3. We got nearly ALL of AK done in those 3 hours.
My biggest gripe for the week....Disney Bus Transportation! When we did park hop, the wait for some of the buses from WL and Ticket/Transportation were awful. We waited or Epcot bus from WL for 45 minutes one night. Also waited for MGM bus from WL for 25 min. and finally gave up on that one. Also, from Ticket and Transportation we waited over 1/2 hour for buses. Granted, there were times we only waited 5-10 minutes but it was frustrating when the really long waits happened. Especially, because they have posted that buses will run every 20 minutes.
Any question....I'll try to help so you all have as magical of a vacation as we did!!
