Part III - Shots of a nearly empty park yesterday, 1/20/10 at post #44 (Page 5)
Part IV - Empty, Empty, and more Empty... (Post #45)



First of all, I just wanted you to see the best wait time board I have ever seen:



Virtually all rides in both parks were walk ons this morning, and when I arrived last night around 4:00 PM, it was pretty much the same.


This first batch is from today. I started in DCA and even though it often isn't very crowded on weekday mornings, I have rarely seen it like this...


































It seems that only the brave and poncho clad folks were out this morning in Disneyland as well...




How empty was it? You know how crowded it can get in the Blue Ribbon on cold as wet days? Check this out...




When the Blue Ribbon is a "walk on" on a rainy day, you know the park is pretty dang empty.

I'm still uploading, but yesterday at about 5 pm was the first time in my life that I have ever seen it as a walk on. This morning may have been similar, but I didn't make it over that far. I do have a shot of the empty line queue from yesterday coming up...

Post away! The more shots, the merrier. I had to leave earlier than I wanted to today as I had to get back to pick up my kids from school. It's coming down in buckets again as I type this, so I have to wonder if Main Street flooded again after I left.

I would love to be there right now. The parks look pretty in the rain!

How was Peter Pan?

Yesterday around noon peter pan was almost a walk-on. The line started on that final straight away that runs adjacent to the loading/unloading platforms.

Yep, they are shutting down early tonight. No peeps to enjoy the place.

Darn, I went on Monday, and the queue was half full! What a joke. It was the longest line all day. Space and Indy were walk ons...

More more more!!

[itsxxdomoxxkun]

Peter Pan had hardly a line at all, consisting of 2-6 people.

It was crazy.The Matterhorn had no line. They kept asking of we wanted to ride again.

I took some pictures from the ride.



Space Mountain was a walk-on too.

Yes...in another thread, they are stating that DL will close at 6pm and DCA at 5. I can't recall when they closed that early for weather and lack of crowds. This may be the earliest closure due to weather in the past 10 years or so.
