Is one better crowd wise then the other? As a general rule is it better to get up early or stay up late to enjoy a lesser crowd?
If there is any way you can do both, you'll beat the crowds all around. We don't usually go in the summer months anymore, but when we did, we'd get up early for the early EMH park, go back to resort for a NAP (saved pool time for down day or no late EMH day), then went to the late EMH park for the evening and closed the park down. This does require the parkhopper option. That nap in a cool room in the afternoon during the hottest part of the day was the only way we could burn the candle at both ends, but we loved the relatively emptier parks.
That is is how we did it and it was perfect. Kids really enjoyed the pool time midday, we had lunch by pool and a refreshing swim. We enjoyed the evenings in the park after that. One day we did a ADR at Kona late lunch to get out of the sun and sit.I like this strategy! Rope drop in the morning, afternoon nap, then go back at night! It's hard to stay in the park without a break in the summer anyways. The heat zaps energy and your body just craves that rest/nap out of the sun!

My DH is a teacher so we are left with summer and Christmas break to fit in our Disney fixes! WE will be there the first week of Aug. We RD and then head out of the parks by noon. WE go back, hopping to a late park if possible, around 6. It had always worked out for us!
