While vacationing at WDW we always leave the park and take an afternoon swim/rest. It often takes quite a bit of time to travel round trip to our resort (whether onsite or off). We find that we enjoy our park time so much more when we can get away for a while and come back in the early evening refreshed (instead of worn out). We are soon to be visiting DL/DCA. I am planning on employing the same strategy in California as Florida. Is there any reason not to continue our break from the parks? We are staying off-site and driving 15 minutes each way to the parks. Is it going to be tricky to deal with parking when we return? I have visions of finding our morning parking lot full and being redirected to a different parking lot (which might be confusing/time-consuming). I know that the simplest way to pull off an afternoon break is to stay on-site or stay at a nearby hotel that is within walking distance to the parks. That is not possible, in our case.
