Martin Luther King Week

Does anyone know what to expect in the parks during MLK week. Are they packed?

I have been there during Presidents week and swore never to go that week again! I hoping that MLK week will be much better.

Thanks!

We were there this year on MLK weekend. It was just fine crowdwise. Never had to wait when we had a PS. Never had to stand on a bus. It rained on Friday and we went to MK for morning EMH. It was absolutely deserted. We rode everything we wanted as a walkon. Probably because it was cold with rain & lightening. LOL.

I wouldn't hesitate to book again due to crowds. I would not go back that weekend however because of the weather. Our 1st 2 days were 80 degrees...the rest of the trip we wore 3 tshirts, a fleece sweatshirt, jeans...and froze. And we're from PA. The weather is too big of a gamble for us.

I just realized that the picture in my signature is from that Friday.

Bizeemom4: Thanks for your reply. I am curious, was it the Friday before MLK day or after. We are going the Friday before and staying till Tuesday. I hope that weekend isn't too busy. We love to go in January because of the light crowds, but have never gone on this weekend. My kids are starting new schools so we have to take them out during this weekend so they don't miss anydays. They have Monday and Tuesday off, so we are making it a long weekend.

By the way, we too are from Pennsylvania!

DW and I went last year over MLK weekend and it was not very crowded at all. Most everything was either walk on or minimal waits.

We did MK on the Saturday and it was no different than the weekdays.

It is another good time to go IMHO.
