April or May

[Leleluvsdis]

DH and I are looking at booking a mexican rivera cruise for late spring 2010. In doing so, I am hopeing to add in 2 or 3 nights at DLR seeing as we def want to come out at least 1 day early just to make sure we are there on time. We have never been to DLR, only to wdw. We are from VA, and the furthest West we've ever been is Louisianna. How is the weather and especially crowds in April and May. It would be anywhere between the 2nd w/e in april and the 1st w/e in may. TIA

If you do April, I'd wait until the last week. Spring break crowds are usually in full force through mid-April. I think beginning of May would be great.

We were there April 27 - May 4th and other than the weekend the crowds quite low

Be careful about late April and May. These are off-season times and DLR has more downsides than WDW in off-season. See "What You Should Know About Off-Season at DLR" www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=18462889

Here is some info on typical weather:

Hope you make the trip. DLR is awesome!
