Isn't August here yet? Man I'm really in need of a vacation.

I stopped posting on this thread because I saw another that was started last year but have not seen it since. I have done this the last couple of years along with a day by day blog when I am in the park with pictures.
I would be glad to continue if there is an interest, if not I will let it go.

You should keep this thread going.

We are pretty excited for our August trip. It's a long haul from Edmonton Canada, but we hope to be able to spread stuff out and relax durin our 10 days. Our first trip to DLR last year was a bit chaotic trying to get everything done in 5 days.

You're is the only thread I've seen for August. I would love to see pictures and such. I've been lurking around learning all I can.

Mid 80's day, this line went forever and the queue's were kinda dis-organized due to the WOC FP's.

I notice some of these tend to slow down, but will pick up once the trip starts getting closer. Also headed to WDW in December. For now that one is a little slow as well. Wait til next month when we can start making ADR's. I'm waiting for next month as well to make ADR's for Steakhouse 55. DW's and my anniversary trip.

Can't wait to try this ride. We love the water rides.

So Jack doesn't desert us, any crowd predictions for the last week of August? I've looked at a lot of school calendars, and this seems to be the week most schools start back up again. Hoping it wont' be as crowded. This is our main reason for picking this week.

You will run into the locals starting on the 20th, many school districts will not be back in as of yet. I love SS55, food is excellent and the atmosphere suits what you are looking for. Have fun.

We'll be there from the 8/25-9/1, but of course you already knew that. After all, you're the one that put it on the list on page 1.

According to school calendars, most schools start back up on the 27th. Then we're leaving before the Labor Day crowd comes in.

Keep the thread! Since we have APs this year I just booked a quickie trip with just myself and DD for her 7th birthday. We will be at HoJo's from August 15-17.

1st time visit for us.. we'll be there 7/31-8/2; candy cane is the plan for now.

5 nights at the Grand Californian 8/26-8/31 with the wife, kids and another family. We usually do WDW. But, decided different this year.

Keep the thread going. I am usually on here once a day. Getting so excited for August. We have now decided to add a princess lunch to our Itinerary, since I decided I would rather not wait in the PFF lines with my 3 year old in the hot summer. (anything above 70 is hot to me) We will book this in June, along with the Minnie & Friends breakfast!!

I come from the other side of the state where it gets well into the 100 degree weather and love the heat when we are at the parks. Thanks for your input and have a great day.

This was the second week, when all the local passes were blocked. Average morning for mid week August last year.
