We are flying in to San Diego on a Saturday night in May. We have 4 days planned at Disneyland, and also plan to do the San Diego Zoo one day and the Safari Park one day. We are flying back out of San Diego early on the following Saturday morning. We are renting a car.
Right now, we have the option of doing Disneyland Su/M/Tu/W, or M/Tu/W/Th.
With plan #1, we would get a hotel about halfway between San Diego and Anaheim, and drive to Disneyland first thing Sunday morning. Then, leave early Thursday morning and hit the Safari Park on the way back to San Diego, with the Zoo on Friday.
Plan #2 would mean doing the Zoo on Sunday, then driving up to Disneyland first thing Monday morning, then doing the Safari Park on Friday after leaving Disneyland early that morning.
From a traffic standpoint, what is the best option? I would guess it would be doing Disneyland beginning on Sunday, since I'm think Sunday morning traffic isn't nearly as bad as Monday morning.
But, I would like advice from experienced Disneyland left-coasters who are much more familiar with this than I am. How bad is the traffic on that end of town, and what is my best option?
From a crowd standpoint, I'm guessing M-Th is better at Disneyland?
