I'm really thinking it would be nice to go back in 2009.


Since Kyle will still be 9 then.

Good to see you! I think the earlier in June you go, the less crowded. Now, less crowded is relative, but some schools don't let out until mid-later June, so that's something to think about. We're leaving the Thursday before Memorial Day and staying through the 2nd of June, and I'm hoping for less crowds than the middle of summer. I know it won't be empty like Sept, but hopefully better than 4th of July.

When does school start again? We went the last week of August in 2005 and the crowds weren't terrible. More than when we went in the end of Sept, but not bad at all. The longest waits we had were around 15-20 minutes.

Hope this helps,
Steph

I'm not sure what the schedule will be then.

That probably doesn't help you much then. We usually go back to school around the 20th or so of August, depending on when the Monday is, of course. We were able to catch one last trip before Trevor started kindergarten in 2005, he was still in preschool and I had no problem missing 2 days of that.

I think the earlier in June, the better.
