And this has left me with only the option of visiting in the first two weeks of July. I have notice American Independance Day falls in between these two weeks. How are the crowds during July the 4th and is it still worth visiting to check out one of the special Fireworks displays. Also has anyone stayed at the Marriott Anaheim before. Interested in some feedback? Thanks

I'd guess the crowds in the days before and after would be pretty large, too. There is always a HUGE crowd of people outside of the parks watching the fireworks on the 4th. They fill the plaza between the parks, and stake out spots all along Harbor Blvd. If you can get into Dl earlier in the day, don't leave, as they may not let you back in!
