Just curious how the crowds were. Trying to decide between going tomorrow (Thursday) or on Monday.

We were there Monday and Tuesday. Both days had about equal crowds. Wait times for the bulk of the day were as follows (varied depending on if a parade was running at the time):
Space Mountain: 50-60 minutes
Matterhorn: 15-25 minutes
Pirates: 10-25 minutes
Indy: 45-70 minutes
Haunted Mansion: 15-20 minutes
Thunder Mtn RR: 15-25 minutes
Splash: 70 mins (according to the sign, we didn't actually go on it though so I can't say if that was accurate)

We went in at 8am on Tuesday and that was awesome... it was so empty, even though it was an early entry day. We rode Space Mountain twice around the 8:30-8:45 mark and only waited about 6 or 7 minutes each time (the sign said 15 minutes). The crowds really picked up around 10am.

We just got back home from our trip tonight. We arrived at DL on Sunday and went left today around noon. The crowds were alittle lighter than I thought they would be. Don't get me wrong...it was crowded, but manageable. I noticed a lot of large Summer day camper groups today. I was glad that we had already done most of the rides and today we just went in to some of our favorite rides one last time and do some shopping. I would probably wait till Monday, since a lot of kids will be back at school next Monday.

My suggestion would be to go early (be in line about 45 minutes before the park opens and have a plan for getting your fast passes when the park opens-that way you can ride a few rides later in the day when it gets hot and crowded!

Have fun!

Thanks

We were there from Thursday (8/14) through Tuesday (8/19). Only went into DCA Thursday evening for TSMM and the Electric Light Parade. At 6:00 the line for TSMM was 60 minutes.

Friday morning was great at DL. We must have done 1/2 the park by noon. Even after dinner it did not seem crazy busy. Saturday we went to DCA and had very good luck with the crowds (lined up at 9:30 for TSMM). Sunday and Monday were VERY crowded, we thought. I guess not as crowded as it can be in the summer but very crowded anyway. Sadly, our children wanted to do Nemo so we used 50 minutes of our EE morning Sunday waiting and riding that (we were even on the first sub).

We even thought Tuesday EE was pretty busy at DL. Could be because at least 3 rides were not running so people diverted elsewhere.

Hope that helps!

My husband took my daughter today. He said the lines in DL were not that bad until around 11:30 when it got quite crowded. They skipped over to DCA where the only significant line was for TSMM. Fastpasses were still available late into the afternoon.

I should add the caveat that my kiddo's too short to do many of the rides with height requirements, so he probably didn't even check those lines out.

Pass holders actually opened up this week. That's why I'm trying to get in there before school starts. We don't start school until Wednesday. I typically go on the Monday before school which would be next Monday, i just didn't know how this week would be. I think I'll wait until Monday as I usually do. I also have to renew my son and Husbands pass so at least when I go next year on the Monday before school starts, their passes will still be good one last time.

Thanks for all of your help.
