    Place is so crowded right now that most of the lines are overflowing into general traffic. Almost everything in the main park is multiple hour waits, not counting the zombie herd style crowds.

    When will it ever be a good time to plan a trip to Disneyland? It seems to get more crowded every year. There used to be lovely off-season and we would plan our yearly visit then, and take the kids out of school. Now it’s packed year-round.

    Not worth the effort, Radiator Springs had a wait time of 150 minutes when we left. Which was around 2:30 PM on a Wednesday. Space Mountain Haunted Mansion and Pirates had an average wait time of 90 minutes. Even Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train in Bugs Land had a abnormal wait time of 20 minutes.

    Yesterday Oct 11 2016 (Tuesday) was one of the most crowded days I have seen in several hundred days I’ve spent in the parks – totally unexpected. At noon the view from the monorail showed long lines to get into the esplanade from Downtown Disney and at the ticket booths. Disney reportedly raised prices of same day tickets to Disneyland park to discourage entry and employees were also saying they didn’t expect the crowds that day. I’ve only seen it that crowded on leap day and on days of the candlelight processional (but I don’t usually go summer or holidays.) This on a random Tuesday in October. Yes, it was a day between Halloween parties — but does anyone have any idea why it was so crazy full? Half hour wait for Small World at 10:30 pm?!!!! (Half an hour before closing.)
