My husband thinks I'm crazy because I always want to go to DL. As soon as we get back I'm on the phone checking the AP rates at the hotels and checking the kids schedule for school. We are planning a trip for the end of Nov. This will be my 22mo old's 13th time there (I only know that because I write it in his babybook). We have four kids my oldest is 10, when he was 2 we took him there and I've been hooked ever since. We live about 4 hours from DL and if I had my way I'd be a lot closer. I was just curious how much other people go there, I know I'm not the only one. RIGHT? LOL

At the minimum I go twice a month if I am lucky I go every week. One can never get enough of DLR.

I have been either 8 or 9 times this year, lol. And I have 3 more trips planned before the end of the year.

You are perfectly normal. If it is as they say the happiest place on earth why wouldn't you want to be there as much as possible?

I've been going 2 or more times a year. So far, I've been 3 days and adding 2 more this week. So, I finally bought an AP since now I will have to go a lot more! (Darn, I am so disappointed.)

Just buy an AP and tell your hubby you need to get your $$ worth!

The past four years I have been lucky enough to go once per year, for about a week to ten days at a time.

For what it's worth, I would be there MUCH more frequently if we weren't a four and a half hour plane ride away! ;)

I'm of the belief that there can never be such a thing as too much DL!!!

I take one long vacation every summer and a couple of day trips during the rest of the year, making sure I dont miss Halloween (although I did this year:crying:) and Christmas.

I've been lucky enough to live so close all my life and have had a pass for about the last 12 or so years. Before I had kids, I used to go with my husband or friends about once a month for dinner and to hit a couple of rides. Now that I am a stay at home mom with a 3 year old, though, I find myself there more like once a week, sometimes more, sometimes less, whenever the mood strikes us. We don't do summers either, or Spring Break, but I could care less about the crowds at Xmas time. We usually hit the park either right at opening, or around 3pm - after naptime- and stay for 3 or 4 hours at a time.

We visit the park about 4 times per year, and spend 3 days each trip. We supplement that by bringing student trips to DL. Those usually get us 2 more days per year.

We'd be there every weekend if we lived nearby. It's an 8.5 hour drive though, so we have to limit ourselves.

In the past 6 years I've only been twice. :(

I live an unfortunate life despite my great love for Disneyland.

3 times a year for about 4 days each time :). I've got a trip coming up in November that marks my 40th trip in just around 19 years of life. About a week after getting home, my mom and I are ready to go back. We get what we call "Disneyland fever" where we just can't stop thinking about it and are dying to go back! Glad there are others out there like me!

We usually go once a year for 3-4 days, but the last three trips have been every 5 months or so, with our next trip in Jan.

We're thinking of getting APs.

We'd go more, at least Piglet and I would, if we lived closer. The 7-8 hour drive can be tough, and we don't fly to LA much.

we are trying for 2x per year. Living in Idaho makes it tough, but we managed it this year, and should be able to next year as well. Can't get enough of Disneyland. If it were affordable for us to live down there, my wife would move in a heartbeat.

Back when I was little... From when I was 4 to 15 years old, we would only go once a year (with maybe a year or two skipped in between.)

Then I started doing the school trips with LeapforJoy :) That boosted it to twice a year. Then I convinced my mom to go for my birthday, then I made her fall in love with the Fall facade and Haunted Mansion Holiday, and we started going so often that she finally broke down and bought us annual passes this year. So much so that I'll have gone 4 times by Thanksgiving. I believe it came to 5 last year. Around that range.

Not bad for someone who lives 8 and a half hours away ;)

When I move to San Diego next year, I plan on going at LEAST every two weeks.

I live in SD. It is such an easy drive! An hour 20:D

Ooh, I'm so jealous! :) I can't wait.

I'm moving there once I have my two-year degree in vet tech so I can get my bachelors in Zoology at SDSU. It'll be my first time living on my own with a whole apartment to take care of no less :eek: So I'll definitely be needing my Disneyland every so often to feel at home.

I am a guest at DLR about once every couple of years. That's okay though, always something new to see!

Let's see from the age of 1-15 at least once a year, then from 16 - 23 at least twice a year, from 24 - 31 at least 4 times a year (day and overnites only) and from 32 until now we take at least 2 - 3 night stay trips a year and I'm in the park at least once a month if not every two weeks.

When my kidlets were in grade school they got out early on Wednesdays so we would run down jump on a couple rides and be home in time for dinner.

We usually average about 3 trips a year. We live in far west Phoenix and it's only a 5 hour drive. We only made it to Disneyland twice in 2007 but have at least 4 trips scheduled in 2008! Can't wait!
