So, since I discovered the magic of Disney parks about 6 years ago - we've done DLR about 4 times and WDW once.
I personally preferred DLR (WDW felt, to me, a lot more hectic - I'm guessing because of more overseas planners rather than locals going on a whim. I do like planning, but the general vibe I guess with everyone there being there for certain / determined reasons gave it a bit of a more intense vibe to it than the more casual DLR - 100% just my opinion, and I understand my age / family situation / time of visit & expierneces may alter my view)
We've always wanted to go to Japan, and I was considering a remote, but wishful (so possible) chance of visiting Japan for the first time ever in December this year?!
I love Disney so much, I cant visit Japan without a trip to TDR!!!
But, I've never been to TDR, and I was looking online, and it sounds a little - intense.
EG: running on open to headliners, arriving 90-120 mins before park opens to queue, general SB headliner wait times 120 to 180 minutes, and FP lines being almost as long as SB lines, stuff like that.
Im one of those people who would go to a DL park in USA during low season as I would prefer to deal with construction / refurbishes / shutdowns, just to avoid big crowds.
I know there will be crowds that Im not used to, but I guess Im just a bit daunted at the moment from a few of the above examples I read.
So, I was planning mid week, to lessen crowds? December - either Mon 5th to Wed 7th (or possibly 8th), or, Tues 6th to Thurs 8th (possibly Fri 9th)
I chose this week because I think it should be before most holidays?
Even with those taken into account, it sounded like the above examples of busy seemed to be the standard level.
I guess, I'm just trying to get an idea from people who know TDR if this is the case. Is it really like this?
Just so I can go with the right mind-set is all
