Don't get me wrong, we are having fun! Beats cold VT! It is just incredible to be around so many people all here for the Mouse!I'd much rather be at a packed Disney World that in cold Michigan. From me to all of those complaining--Pretend it is a snowball.
the bulk of Spring Break crowds are still to come. Prediction calendars had 3/11 through Easter as a lot more crowded than last week.Are the crowds there now expected to lessen in the next few weeks? I know they will ramp up again the closer we get to Easter/Patriot's Day.
We were there during the same time. We were very surprised at the crowds. It didn't matter which park we hit, it was the same at each of the parks.I was at Magic Kingdom on Tuesday 02/07 and the wait time for 7DMT was 150 minutes. Who thinks that it is a good idea to even get in a line that long? We went about 5 years ago the same week and crowds were pleasant. This trip was elbow to elbow the whole week no matter where we are. It was not our most enjoyable experience.
Not what I wanted to hear...
I thought early march was lighter crowds lol
I think there was a lot going on at once this week. We had Mardi Gras, Feb breaks (some schools had last week of feb into march), Epcot's garden festival, people who did the marathon then stayed the week etc. I think it was just kind of a perfect storm.
Ha! He was on the Disney Blog yesterday, too. I'm kind of surprised he's famous enough to get PEPed through the rides.\Our reward? Riding it with a celebrity who was taken through a backdoor. Granted I didn't know WHO it was at the time but my 7 year old thought it was cool because she has an after school teacher who likes the band. Ha! (It was apparently Josh Dun from 21 Pilots.)

True. I guess I've just revealed I'm the correct age to start yelling at kids to get off my lawn.He is in a pretty popular band right now so it makes sense. They are on the top 40 and selling out arenas so it isn't like he is the front runner of a garage band.
Except I wasn't responding to an interpretation, I was responding directly to what a pp poster said.Mardi Gras is not a a blip on anyone's radar here, so I agree with the sentiment of you forget about it unless you're from the area where it is celebrated.
