We arrive at The Hard Rock Hotel on the evening of 2nd July and leave on the 10th , with us being English , when we planned the trip we didnt spare a thought for the 4th and all its implications as far as crowds are concerned !
Can I ask one of our American cousins , to give us a better understanding as to what lies ahead for us ! are we going at the worst possible time ?
Will it be manic the entire week or just for a couple of days ?
As well as the 2 Universal parks, my teenage daughters also want to visit W.D.W, Blizzard Beach and Orlando Premium outlets , are there certain days between the 2nd and 10th , that we might as well stay at the hotel or are all things still possible ?
After seeing the queues on the 18th (opening day) , I must admit were feeling a little bit apprehensive as to what lies ahead !
OR, is it like England , and everyone flocks to the beach instead on a public holiday, and in fact it all gets a bit quieter ? (which I somehow doubt)
Any 4th of July survival tips will be much appreciated !
 
We will be a HRH from July 4 - 6 and are expecting crowds. We're WDW pros but have never been in summer, only learned from these boards.
 
I'm expecting July 4th to be ridiculously crowded. I'll be there :laughing:

Hope for the best but if you're that worried just go shopping that day.
