Originally Posted By lori6421 I also would like to know how busy we can expect it to be in March. We will be there the 16-31. Also do they extend the park hours to deal with large crowds like they do in Disneyland?
Originally Posted By Labuda The time of year you'll be there is super busy, lori - be glad you'll have two weeks. And, yes, park hours will more than likley be extended to midnight for the MK, and around 10 or 11 for D-MGM, and 8 or so for DAK.
Originally Posted By lori6421 Thanks for the warning, maybe we will spend the mornings hanging out at the pool (if warm enough) then head to the parks in the afternoon. We are keeping our fingers crossed for warm weather this time of year. I know it's not usually all that warm but we can always dream : )
Originally Posted By Labuda Actually, you'd be best off hitting the parks at opening, leaving around 11 or noon, and returning around 4 or 5 pm.
Originally Posted By Mickey4President We went in 2004 at that time of the year. We wore sweatshirts in the morning and rented lockers to put them in when it got warmer. Also, the day we had planned to go to Typhoon Lagoon my DS7 (he was 5 at the time), got so cold his lips started turning blue. To be fair though, it was 62, and the CM's said the weather was unusual. The water was freezing, but that could have been due to the weather. I didn't think the crowds were too bad, and I really hate crowds. If a place gets too crowded, I can have a panic attack. For example, I can't take my kids to Chucky Cheese without having one. Have a good trp!!
