How busy will Disneyland be March 18-22?

Forgive me if this is in the wrong section...

I know it will definately be relatively busy as it is close to Easter Week, but relating to an average saturday at WDW, how bad do you guys think it will be? We tried to plan the trip so that we arrived on a tuesday and left on a friday, just to dodge those mad, swarming crowds.

The closer you get to Spring break, the more crowded it will get. You made a good decision by not going on the weekend, it'll be horrific then. I don't know what a saturday at WDW is like, but I don't think it's going to be completely mad. Crowded? Yes. Crazy mad crowds? Probably not. But remember, DL is smaller so it holds less people and when there are a lot of people, it can feel very crowded.

Use fastpass wisely and get there at opening, and you should be fine.

Nicole's right. It's the week before Easter and several California schools have their spring break that week so it will be crowded. But with fastpass and arriving early you'll be able to do most everything. Good call avoiding Saturday though, it would have been even worse!
