That's the only time I've ever been to DL where there were almost no kids in the park.

There are still kids around (especially those young enough to not have a school schedule to adhere to), but between the timing of the event (first weekend after New Years break) and the demographic that it tends to attract, it's a much more adult-oriented time to visit >>Of course, by now, I'm sure we scared the orignal poster away, so this discussion is likely all for nothing.<< I think he's just trying to go viral on Instagram... <a target="blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://instagram.com/dilfs_of_disneyland/">http://instagram.com/dilfs_of_...neyland/</a>

I am thankful he has help at the parks, I am sure he needs it. It seems like he runs people into the ground dumbo or die style!!! LOL!!! Anywho we will for sure be going, I am excited. I am sure we will make lots of memories. At least I will. The teething thing will be over, and we will be set! Maybe familyguy should stay in Quohog with Stewie and Brian! LOL!!!!

Observing/watching kids at DL is kind of a pastime for me since I don't have any and I live in a city where I can go days, maybe even a week, without ever encountering one. Seeing them in the parks so big eyed and excited makes me love the place even more. The only thing I dislike is when babies at the park start screaming or I get rammed in the ankles with a stroller. I almost got mowed down by one on Main Street the last time I was there.

With no stroller, he'll be forced to leave the park to take a break! One less brat for me to endure. ;-) "and it's a great place to take a nap." Maybe I'll start bringing a stroller in case I need a nap. They're big enough for an adult nowadays, aren't they? "I think I've discovered what the third gate in Anaheim should be... Grumpy Manland for those who prefer their theme parks without kids." I am there!
