We are going to LA b/w Christmas and NY with the ILs, and during this insanely popular time, with zero prep, we're making our first trip to DL. Yes, we're crazy, but this is MIL's idea. She only wants to go one day and doesn't want to stay anywhere near Anaheim, so it's going to be that much more insane and frenzied. Can you tell how much I'm going to love this?
So I know it's a good idea to buy tickets ahead of time so you don't have to wait in long lines. But is there a risk of DL tix being sold out on a particular day? In other words, if we want to go on, say Dec 26, do we buy tickets for that day specifically? Or just generic tickets to DL to be used on any day? I have heard people say "buy tickets ahead of time as they sell out" but looking at the DL website, it doesn't look like you buy tickets for any particular day. Or am I missing something?
I would SO appreciate any tips and pointers for this newbie, including time of day to go, strategies for getting the most out of a single day visit with 6.5 and 2.5 yr old in tow, cost saving suggestions, etc. Oh, and DD2 really wants to go to Cars Land but if we're there for a day, it doesn't make sense. Is there any Cars stuff in the main park too?
THANKS!
