I love to spend time browsing in the stores, not necessarily buying anything, but I love to browse in them. Now my kids Nerdy Cookies especially likes to get her souvenirs on the first or second day. I think because we are going during a peak time and we normally go during the non-peak time I do not plan on going into the stores except maybe the hat stores and a candy store or two, until Friday or Saturday. Except for DTD, as I think the only time I actually plan to shop there will be our first afternoon and evening. Of course that is subject to change.
I want to make sure we ride the busier ride on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I am a person that loves, loves, loves, New Orleans Square. To me this is my favorite place in the whole park. The feel of the area, with the jazz music playing and the shops, rides and places to eat in that area are my favorites. My must do rides are in this area, my all time favorite Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Haunted Mansion. Now those of you who have never been to Disneyland I have been told that both of these rides are different here than they are in Disneyworld.
I would like to on the first day ride on Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Haunted Mansion, and Splash Mountain. Because it is a Monday we may be able to fit them all in in the first half of the day. I don't really know, I do know that I was looking at attendance records and I don't think it is going to be much busier in June than it was in March during SPring break but that remains to be seen.
In the past we have visited every land every day, but I think maybe this year we may attack the big rides Monday-Wednesday. And then meander on the other days. I do know that I want to save DCA for Thursday.
