How many HOURS for you? (Sleep!)

[draybook]

I want to thank the sleepy heads in this thread for minimizing my waits in the morning!!

 

[KLinder7]

My last 9 day trip would say the average was 4-5 hours. Sleep when you are back home!

Just got back on Tuesday. 6 hours a night...and it wasn't enough, but it was worth it! I forced myself to sleep at midnight every night, but I was up like a shot at 6 am every day. I'd realize I'm in Disney World!!!!!!, throw my clothes on, get some coffee and sit outside for an hour before waking up the family.

Those early mornings to myself were some of my favorite parts of the trip, and I'll never do it any other way. I'm still so exhausted I feel drunk, but it was worth it!

It usually ends up being about 6 hours a night or so, which is what I average at home. We usually go to whichever park has evening EMH so we don't leave the parks until after 11pm, sometimes midnight or 1am. And we're there in the morning for rope drop. The bus ride in is enough time for us to wake up and feel energized, because like @LAM378 said, I'm in Disney World!!!!!!

And I'd like to 2nd what @draybook said. Thank you, sleepyheads. You enjoy those expensive hours of shut-eye while we enjoy the empty parks.

12am to 6am max for us.

Three things we do well at Disney... excersize, eat and sleep. Usually up around 7:00 and lights out by 11:00-12:00.

4-5 hours usually. I'm a rope drop until I get kicked out type! I'm too excited to sleep most of the time anyway!!

 

[melmel89]

between 6-8 hours for me. I'm pretty lucky with flying over from the UK with the time difference even if i have to get up early it feels like I have slept in late, its just when i get the effect in reverse when i get home that's the problem!

9. Walking exhausts me and let's just say I'm "cranky" (I'm using the nice term) if I don't get about that.

I guess your name fits then, eh, princess?
@draybook and I thank you for the minimized waits in the morning while you sleep the grumpy off.

Hah yeah right? It's funny I'm pretty easy to please and barely complain but when it comes to sleep, I'm more of a villain than a princess, really.

More than usual .. 8-9 hrs I think. All the walking, sun, standing and added attraction stress

 

[disney4life2008]

Average about 5 hours each trip at night. But I also get 2 hours in during the day time.

 

[PAW PAW 70]

Usually average around 6 hours. It all depends on park closing and grandkids calming down.​
