View Full Version : Easter 2004
Only 2 weeks until we go[msnsmile2]and I,m starting to worry about the crowds.
I,m expecting it to be busy but will all the parks be as crowded as each other including Seaworld and Universal.
Will the whole 2 week school holiday be mobbed or will it get progressively busier peaking over the Easter weekend and then start to drop again.
I,m sure we will have a great time anyway but just want to have a rough idea of what to expect.
Thank goodness for Fastpasses.

We normally go at Easter and July/August and I don't think its THAT bad, yes it will be busy but as you say you can use FastPass.
You will have a great time stop worrying!

and the weather will be wonderful:D
I'll be there (and I've been there befor eat Easter) and I am not worrying at all! Just get to the parks as early as possible, and go til you can't stand the crowds anymore, then go swim at the villa, and go back at night again til you can't stand it anymore, then go out to eat dinner w/reservations! We are taking a few days to do other things besides the parks in btwn. the days we go to the parks, to keep the frustration level down and stay relaxed.
Don't worry, be happy.
we are going in two weeks and will be just over the seven bridge at this time then on our way to Heathrow, two weeks five hours and fourty min we will be on the plane, not that I'm counting. Last time we were over in Easter 2002 we found it fine in the parks arrive early leave lunch time and return in the evening, wonderful then spend the next day relaxing by the pool. Have a good trip. roll on 3rd April.

:)It also explains why we are both going at one of the most expensive times.
Whereabouts are you staying? we are at Cumbrian Lakes.
Caseyd,
Nice to hear an American perspective as I found a forum on another site which made Easter sound like a nightmare.
Hope you both have a great time.

Yvonne and Beryl - I am also a teaching assistant and tied to school hols. We are going over at easter too. It is our first visit to our recently purchased villa on Eagle Point just up the road from Cumbrian Lakes. We were also worried about the crowds going at this time, however after last years hol in Orlando in August when they had torrential rain nearly every day I think I'll take my luck with the crowds.

I'm staying at Grand Reserves, will be looking for a villa to purchase,I might be able to afford a garden shed if the prices rise anymore. I work with reception and the nursery unit only 48 of them bless.
