i have just looked at the forecast for next week and it seems to have taken a turn for the worst. the cold i am prepared for but i hate rain. seeing as i cant avoid it does anyone have any tips for making the most of dlrp while raining

thanks
 
Use the arcades to walk up mainstreet,
use the secret passage which goes from the end of Liberty arcade virtually all the way to Chalet des marionettes
spend time watching shows (animagique is great and Ash will love it)
ride POC lots
ride IASW lots
 
Sonya, the forecast for us was rain on Monday, Tuesday and then on Wednesday it was forecast snow! We had one light shower on Wednesday morning and that was it. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. I bought some cheapo macs from Matalan (think they were about £1) to take with us and cover their coats but we didn't need them.
 
Its also likely to be quieter if its wet as day visitors tend to not bother
 

Do make sure you have macs with you even if the weather looks OK in the morning. We were caught out once on the day we got there, we were only going to be in the park a couple of hours and it was sunny when we left the car but it absolutely tipped it down and we got drenched.

I would pack your wellies too. There's nothing worse than wet feet when you've managed to keep the rest of you dry. When it rains, DLRP is FULL of puddles.

I noticed that too! That was my one criticism of DLRP - the state of the pavements, so full of cracks. I must have walked around with my head hanging down like Eeyore.:lmao:
 
Something waterroof to sit on!!!

The outdoor rides (especially dumbo, agrabah etc) get very wet seats! So even if it wasnt raining i'd put on my poncho to go under my bum!
 
Remember to roll up your trousers legs!! esp jeans , nothing worse than them even slightly hitting the heel on your shoe they will slurp up the water and it will work its way up to your knee before you know it!!:rotfl2:

What looks like the wettest day go to studios loads to do indoors:)

This is a must! It rained twice when we were there and the first night I was wearing waterproof boots and a poncho but didn't roll my jeans up :crazy2: didn't think of that :lmao: . And my legs, up to my knees were drenched! And I got very cold because of it.

The next rainy day I noticed so many people and children walking around with soaked legs up to their knees.

Anyway the first night, when it was wet it was sleet and it was horrendous. It was freezing cold and windy, we had soaked legs (dry feet :lmao: ), were wearing poncho's but the sleet hitting us in the face actually hurt.

Next wet day, better prepared, no sleet, kept dry under poncho and much more pleasant, just kept to the arcades, rides under cover as much as possible. We did have a damp morning another morning, but didn't even wear ponchos that morning, it was just a light spray that came and went so wasn't too bad.

So, wellies are a fantastic idea to keep your legs dry (and warm) and a poncho or raincoat, its still fun in the rain, it's Disneyland :cheer2: .
