    Super crowded. I’ve been coming every week and this is the first summer crowd…all the lines are long.

    Radiator Springs is stopped right now. The ride is being “fixed”. The Disney App said that it would initially take 90 minutes to wait on the app for standby, but we’ve been here 3 hours. Just giving everyone an update.

    Very busy! Food & Wine Festival is partially open.

    There’s not as many rides as Disneyland, so the popular rides will have long waits (up to an hour or more) even on days that are not very crowded. Use Fastpass and Single Rider.

    Insanely busy. Booked a fast pass for radiator springs racers at 10:00pm for use at 2:40pm. I thought everyone was supposed to be back at work???

    Avoid Grad Nite days in the summer (May-June). They can get pretty crowded!

    Less crowded than Disneyland, so you can get all of the park done easily in one day.

    California Adventure is anything but a ghost town. 60+ minute wait times for everything. It looka like the middle of July. 🙁
