    Are we talking summer crowds, or something much worse?

    Please, any info. would be appreciated as i would hate to take my whole family and have it be a miserable time with insane crowds.

    I cant imagine they are any worse than the crowds at DL during the 50th week, if they are, then I am out.

    This does not mean you will go to Disney and have a bad time! Just make your plans and be flexible and you can have an awesome time anytime of the year you choose to go!

    Sometimes I don;t want to fight crowds and stay away from any venue at the most crowded periods -- other times I like to be part of the action....just depends what you want.

    The week of the 50th celebration, you basically couldnt walk through the park.

    It was, by far, the worst crowd I have ever seen anywhere.

    It was insane man.

    I have been to WDW during summer, and on Spring break, and it wasnt anything even remotely like what DL was like for us that week.
