I'm contemplating buying AP's (again 
) and was going to go through Costco. They are offering $50 back on the deluxe pass. The only catch is the first date used must be by the end of May. So if we did that, I think we'd likely go May 25-29. I know the 25th is a holiday, but we'd arrive later so I'm not terrible concerned about the holiday crowds for that day. What I'm wondering about is the crowds the rest of the week (We'd leave on Fri, so no weekend days on our trip). I've been in early May before and it was great. Last year DH and I went alone for 2 days in mid June ( I think it was the 10th & 11th.. somewhere around then) and it was insanely busy! There were school groups galore. It was really miserable. My kids are younger and I know there is no way they can handle those kind of crowds. I'm just wondering if we'd be missing those SoCal school trips if we went that week or not? I know that AZ schools are out then so I'd expect some crowds, but am hoping for less than what we had in June last year. If it's going to be similar, I'd personally just as soon skip it.
Anyone have any insider info on that time of year?
