New to DL...

[MaggieMollyMom]

We are planning a DL trip for the last week of April. we are WDW vets but thus will be all new!! How are the crowds typically at the end of April?

Disneyland crowds now come in two types: Crowded and very crowded.

The main differences are FastPass (DL still uses the old paper tickets and no pre-reserve).
The ease of staying off-property.
The food at Disneyland generally SUCKS!
Everything is so much closer at DL. Back, back edge of DL, to back, back edge of DCA is a shorter walk than going half-way around World Showcase.

A few of our rides are pretty different than the WDW versions. WDW's Space Mt is more like DL's Matterhorn. Most are pretty much the same.

Thanks for the advice. We are used to summer and Christmas crowds so I'm thinking it will be similar?
