We've done the "typical summer day" at DL many times, and we can easily tolerate that level of crowds. I'm just worried about CRAZY crowded. But maybe I'm worrying about nothing. You're right, DL is always great -- crowded or not.

If you have never been during December or January with all the decorations I would go. Even though the parks can be crowded, I would go again just for the decorations and atmosphere. Although Christmas is over, the decorations will still be there for a few days. The amount of people always changes though. The second time I went there were more people than the first time I went.
