I too was in DCA on Saturday. Unfortunately I was also in DCA on Sunday.

At about 12:30 Sunday afternoon the line for Monsters, Inc., was 120 minutes. It consumed the entire queue for Monsters, Inc., flowed out the entrance, consumed the portion of the Millionaire queue between the two show buildings then the flowed out into the general walkway of Hollywood Studios. Then flowed out the gate of Hollywood Studios before stopping just shy of the Award Wieners line (which extended all the way across the street creating quite the bottleneck for people who didn't want a hot dog.

I did not see a ride queue in DCA today shorter than 30 minutes except for the carousel which was 10. Golden Zephyr was 30. Jumpin' Jellyfish was 40. Mulholland Madness was 90. Maliboomer was 80. Soarin' was 100. Screamin' was 70. Tower of Terror was only 60. There was actually a line for the Boudin Bakery tour and Mission had a one-show wait to get through (and then they were only giving corn tortillas on the inside).

It was an absolute zoo. I put a bit in tomorrow's park update but at the park entrance when we went in they had CMs roaming the lines asking people if they were using the second day of a "2fer ticket" and if they'd prefer to go to Disneyland instead. Nobody (of the few I saw) was taking them up on this offer.

We drove up Katella from the 57 to get to the resort and when we reached Harbor the sign was directing traffic from our direction to the Pumbaa overflow lot. I drove to the garage instead (there was no way I was going to walk from Pumbaa) and was able to enter there still. When we showed our pass to get into the garage the CM said "you might want to consider going to Disneyland today since DCA is very busy." I wonder if I might not just go the rest of my life without ever hearing that sentence again.
