Which day for MM?

[mothwoman]

We have a 4day hopper pass and are doing this coming Saturday as well as Monday through Wedensday next week. I was thinking of doing MM on Saturday as I have three kids 8,5, and 2 so they will be less tired on our first day out than later next week. Will it be better to wait until Tuesday or since it is Spring Break it is always lots of people?

I would do Saturday in that case. IME, every MM is about the same crowd wise except for Thursdays, which always seem to be lighter. I think it's because a lot of crowds come in late Friday and are more likely to leave Tuesday.

accounding to 10 years of research for the Unofficial Guide and found on ww.touringplans.com, DL will be slightly less busy by Wed (6.7 out of 10).
The first number xx out of 10 is for the resort in general. Then the DL number and then DCA. SL, SC are pass blackout days.

Sat, March 12, 2011 10 out of 10 DL 8.6 DCA 9.3 SL SC Spring Break Season Begins
Sun, March 13, 2011 9 out of 10 DL 7.3 DCA 9.5 SL
Mon, March 14, 2011 9 out of 10 DL 7.9 DCA 8.7
Tue, March 15, 2011 8 out of 10 DL 7.2 DCA 8.5
Wed, March 16, 2011 8 out of 10 DL 6.7 DCA 8.4

We have always experienced much less people on both MM Sat. and Sun. than during the week.

Wow, Sandysue, this will be much different than last time we went with no crowds. I guess if you know in advance it is easier to deal with.

I'm thinking I should probably do a character meal since we will not want to wait in any more lines after rides to see characters. Is there a meal that has a princess and Mickey?

Thanks for replies.

Doing MM the first day offered is pretty good advice for everyone visiting DLR.....but if coming from the Central or Eastern Time Zone it's most DEFINITELY best to do your MM the first day.

Very easy to get up (5:30am seems like 7:30am) the earlier in the trip.
