We're here - crowd pictures included - UPDATED 5/6 in first post

Its great to hear that crowds are down. I was panicking over the 8's and 9's.

Let us know how it goes throughout the week, as my husband and I are going next week and would love to actually be able to ride some of the good ones!

this gives me a small glimmer of hope for our early june trip-the entire month of may is 8-9's on the crowd calendar, and it continues into june, so i was panicking-DH has a phobia of large crowds and we normally go during off-season, but can't anymore due to DD moving up to middle school.

Woo Hoooo...those pics are great!

DH and I arrive on Sunday for a three day mini trip. We would love to get as much in as we can! Have a great time!

This is what the parks always look like for us - we use TGM.

Thanks for sharing - looks like you are really having a magic time in the parks.

Thanks for posting those pictures. I hope those crowds hold up. We leave in 105 hours (LOL - my mom just had me figure it out - the equates out to Sunday morning for those that leave then.)

Thanks so much for posting pics of the crowds (or lack thereof). Looks like May will be the same as it was when we visited last year!!!

 

[MarkinNM]

WOW, is this typical??

Scary in these economic times….

BUT hoping it’s this way when we go in September!!!

We were there on Sunday. EMH til 2am. Walked on everything from 3pm on.
Almost no waiting. HOT for early May but fun!

 

[mdburr]

Do you think its going to stay consistant like this through the rest of may? I hope so! Im there the 19th!

 

[hulagirl87]

we were there 2 years ago right at this time and I remember it being steady but not too busy. We will be arriving on Tuesday next week, so hopefully the crowds will stay just like in those pictures

YAY-- I am so glad! We are planning an early May 2011 trip and I have been scared off by crowd reports and predictions thinking we may be in for huge crowds. I am used to Oct/Nov crowds and your pics look more like what I am used to. Thanks for sharing!

 

[jpolak]

Have a great trip!

 

[beautybelle]

We're leaving Saturday. Thanks for the much needed update. We're soooo excited.

 

[gobraves39560]

Hoping that it stays this way for our upcoming trip! Gettin excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[WelovMickey!]

Fantastic! We will be there in 9 days!!

 

[Rora]

Thanks for sharing!! We'll be there in about 2 weeks and are really hoping for those kinda crowds!

Why can't I ever see the pictures people post? All is see are the captions.

I have this problem when I am either at work or on our company VPN. Also, this happens with different browsers as well. If you are using firefox, try IE.

So do we. Still, though, I thought that it might reassure the UG users out there. We went back last night and had to leave early as I was feeling ill (chronic illness, NOT influenza H1N1), and it was just as empty. Good times!

I'll post more crowd pictures here as the weeks go on.

We were at MK yesterday as well. Great day!

This is day 6 for us, so we are off to a later start as mom and dad are BEAT!, heading to Disney Quest and DTD for lunch and early afternoon.

DH will go golfing with one or two of the boys this afternoon while I hit a park with the rest....not sure which one yet, maybe Epcot.

Great vacation this week! I am already planning our October trip!

Dawn

Ooo, here's hoping it's stays like this till next month!
