Those should be pretty good dates as far as crowds go. We'll be there the week before and the crowds really start going down then. It will be hot/humid. Try to do as much as you can early in the day since it will rain late afternoon. We were prepared for showers everyday but the rains were torrential last year. So, have ponchos handy. If you get a lot done early, you won't have to worry about missing out on a lot if/when it rains. Try to get some mid-day quiet time. If you are staying on-site, go back to your resort and swim a bit. Then the heat/humidity won't bother you quite as much. Drink a lot. Be sure the kids drink a lot. Plan on 'potty' breaks every other hour. Not a request, a command!!! Just make it part of your plan. So, go and have fun. Hope your trip is a great one!!

We will be there 8/21-8/31. We usually get up super early and do a park until about 1-2 p.m., usually eating lunch in the park then come back swim and about 4-5 p.m. go do another park. We fit dinners and snacks in whenever we have the urge. We don't plan until the night before, and prefer a spontaneous trip rather than every little thing planned. The only PS's we made were for CRT and Fantasmic Dinner Pkg.

We like spending time in the resorts, which is why we always split our days.
