“All the advice says to leave the park during the midday crowded time. And that's good advice. But sometimes that can be less than relaxing, depending on where you're staying. We found that taking some time out IN the park can get everybody refreshed and ready to go again. Whether it's taking a very leisurely lunch at a quieter restaurant or finding a quiet spot in the park where you can sit on a bench or the grass, stop touring and planning, spend some time chatting and just relaxing—you know, like you're on vacation! Afterward, the spring is back in our step, smiles back on our faces, and we are eager to go off to the next stop on our list. Some good quiet spots in Disneyland are near the Snow White and Seven Dwarfs statues, the outdoor area by the Tiki Room, the inner courtyard in New Orleans Square, and Blue Bayou Restaurant. ”
