until our annual Disneyland trip, (Dance Competition). Memorial Day weekend.. yes, I know, you don't have to tell me.. BUT..this year maybe, JUST MAYBE... we'll catch a break.

Star Wars Land is opening the week AFTER we'll be there. We are hoping, fingers crossed, the big crowd will hit THAT weekend instead of our weekend.

But, even if we don't catch a break we are experts, having been so many times. We stay at the Disneyland Hotel which allows their guests early entry... only an hour but it works. We can ride all the major rides before the big crowds hit. Then when the big crowds hit and rush to the major rides we hit the lesser attractions.... by noon we've usually seen and done it all.

There is also an 'art' in knowing the 'order' to hit the rides.... and I would tell you but then I've have to kill you. - JamesJM
