Need Opinions - Halloween Party on Labor Day?

[riversend22]

Hey all. My husband and I are headed down to Orlando for a relaxing trip before baby #2 is born. We aren't doing any parks, we'll just be hanging at the hotel, eating at the springs and doing some mini golfing for the most part.

We have one day where we don't have any plans, and being pregnant, I thought it might be fun to hit up the Halloween Party. I'd be able to ride a few of the smaller rides, and of course the food, fireworks and parade are all stellar.

It appears though that the only party that week is on Monday which happens to be Labor Day. We usually go in September, but we've never been for that holiday. I'm looking for opinions on how busy that day can get. Do you think the party that night will be crazy? Would it even be worth it for us to go with me being 5 months pregnant? I can handle some crowds, but since this is meant to be a "relaxing" vacation, I don't want it to be a madhouse.

Thanks for the help!

There's also one Friday next week. We opted for the Monday one. Even though it's a holiday, we theorized it might be less busy than the Friday one, when there's no school the next day for locals to be concerned with. We'll see how that turns out. While we didn't do a party on Labor Day last year, we were in the parks and didn't find crowds to be an issue.

I tend to agree with PP. Even though its a holiday, many people go back to work the next day. Here, most people take this week off with Tuesday being their first day back to work. Also, those with kids up here in the Northeast will likely have ended their vacations by Labor Day as most schools here go back the Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday after Labor Day.

Thanks guys. I guess my husband surprised me and bought tickets already so we are definitely going. I'm so excited!!

Crowd calendar shows 2/3 for Tuesday, so I expect the crowds to be lower for Monday. We will be going also.
