Hi Everyone,

We are at Disneyland right now! We are taking a break from the parks and lounging at the Grand Californian! Disneyland is crazy packed today! We got here at 10am and Space Mountain had a 75 minute wait! You can barely walk around the place! We are having fun though. Had lunch at Blue Bayou and will see the fireworks tonight!

Just wanted to say hello!

I was there last night and it was "crazy packed" as well. I got there around 7:45PM and Space had a 60 min wait. It broke down when I got there so my friend and I decided to have dinner at Pizza Port where we watched a giant crowd gather for Space while eating. When it reopened around 8:30, people ran in and the wait time went from ---- to 60 mins in a matter of seconds. The Fast Pass stayed --:-- all night though. The hub was impossible for fireworks so I watched from the Rivers of America (I really liked the fog effect there for the HM portion) and managed to grab myself a nifty front and center spot for Fantasmic! We got in 2 Haunted Mansion Holiday rides and it was time to go home!

Wow... that turned into a mini trip report... :p

Hope the weather is holding out for you. I know there was talk of thunder storms!

I bet the week will be less crowded for you. In my opinion, Fridays/Saturdays are always crowded. I hate busy park days.

I was there on Tuesday and yesterday, both days were usually crowded for this time of year. It must be the 50th.

Give us a report and don't forget Screamin'. I'd love to hear some details about the re-open.

KI hope when we get there in January that things settle down a bit. Most of the locals should have experienced all the 50th stuff several times by then... Or, am I just fooling myself?

i was there on friday too!

we had fastpasses for 8, and then it broke down before we got there, so we came back after the fireworks, and it was open again, and thats when they changed the time from 90 to 120 minutes! fastpass was about a 30 minute wait at about 1015. While we were on it, it broke down AGAIN!, but this time it was fun because they had to turn all the lights on and we got to see inside space mountain, its really cool when you get to see everything.

just thought i would share

We need some way to identify other Mouse Planet people at the park. It would be nice to meet more of the people who post here.
