UEA weekend planning....

[PixiePowered]

Hi DIS'ers!

The DH and I are headed to DL, to celebrate our anniversary on UEA weekend. We'll be driving down Friday morning (10/19), and should arrive around 4p....and we'll head back home Monday AM. The plan is to get 2-day hoppers and be in the parks Sat/Sun. I'm debating on upgrading to 3-day hoppers (and spending Fri in the parks as well) or getting tickets to the Halloween Party. Although DH would prefer to have a nice steak dinner and cocktails on Friday evening

I'm looking for suggestions on which day for which park. We went last in June 2011, so we've yet to see CL. And onside ring it will be UEA weekend, I'm just not sure how to start planning this trip

TIA!!!

.....anyone have tips to maneuver through UEA weekend efficiently?.....

I don't know if this will help at all, but I know that several of the Utah County schools (which tend to be the ones with the largest families!) are out for fall break the week before, so it might not be as bad this year...

We went on UEA last year, and yes, it was crazy. It would not make sense to me to buy a 3 day hopper, because the park will close at 7pm on Friday. I'd buy party tickets instead.

Be at rope drop on Saturday, park hop all day and collect fastpasses. Saturday was definitely the busiest day last year. I did notice that the parks really cleared out Sunday night and I wished I could of stayed later that night. (But I was running back to the room with DD2 throwing up). But, with just you and your hubby, I'd plan on closing the parks that night.

We will be there that weekend too! It is my son's birthday on the Sat and I had no idea about UEA when I booked it! I'm preparing for a busy
Weekend!
