Last summer DL opened right at 8:00 when we were there (week of July 4th). We got there before 7:30 thinking that they would open Main Street earlier. DCA opened a few rides at 9:30 rather than the 10:00 stated time.

Can anyone who has been recently tell me what they have been doing? We will be there the week of 8/10. I don't want to wait outside DL for almost an hour if we don't need too!

The general rule on rope drops is this: If Disneyland opens later than 8am, Main Street will be open 30 mins. before the posted opening time, with a rope drop at the actual opening time. If Disneyland opens at 8am, don't count on a rope drop.

As for DCA, they usually open Sunshine Plaza and Condor Flats 30 mins. early, with Soarin' frequently open (and empty ;)) during that time. I'm not sure how they decide what days rope drops happen at DCA, though :)
