    We were there on Monday July 24.
    Just to keep it simple... their opinions on the parks.

    Disneyland.
    The Hits: Pirates, Indy, Space Mtn, Splash.
    Good but not great: Haunted Mansion, Buzz Lightyear
    Loser: Star Tours
    "What?": Price of mouse ears

    DL was packed- 9AM-2PM, 8PM-10PM. Fireworks were great but crowds were scary. Kids were nervous from the crowds. Couldn't get on BTMRR, IASW, Matterhorn.

    DCA.
    The Hits: Soarin, Screamin, Tower
    Just OK: Bugs, Grizzly, Animation, Monsters Inc
    Loser: Sun Wheel, Orange Stinger, Tortilla and Bread Factories
    "What?": San Francisco area, no Aladdin, length of TOT, NASTY Fastpass CM at GRR (large hispanic woman about 35 years old - just plain rude!)

    DCA was mostly empty except for GRR and Soarin. We were there from 2-8pm and rode Screamin and Tower several times. Many eateries were closed. Ended up at Wharf restaurants and Pizaa Oom Mow Mow (sp)

    Downtown Disney was a hit.

    That's it in a nutshell.
