DH & I are visiting DL, staying at the GCH from 5/1-5/5 and will rent a car on check-out to head to LA for a week. Never having been to DL we are trying to wrap our brains around trip planning because we are so used to the "WDW way" of really planning out things well in advance.
We have PHs so I think we need to pick our first park for each day and are concerned how the crowds might be for the Star Wars Nites on the 3rd and 4th. Should we start at DL on those days so we can then move to the DCA for the evening? I'm assuming with the crossover starts around 6pm, DL will get significantly more crowded.
And then if we want to try to get on RS, ROTR or Spiderman we have to join an online queue first thing in the morning, right?
We've been reading about Genie + and LL and our travel agent asked if we wanted to add on Genie + for the whole trip. I'm thinking most people would wait but then there is the Photopass and since its our 30th anniversary that might be a good thing to have, right?
I guess I'm trying to understand if we wanted to see and do all the rides/shows/attractions do we really have to plan a ton in advance if we have 4-5 days there?
My husband and I are a little overwhelmed looking at a lot of sites to try to glean the most updated info. Would using something like a trip planning site (for a fee) make sense for us?
