Week of 5/23 - How Busy?

[GJM]

I'm thinking of taking my DS the week of 5/23 M-F - Can anyone let me know how busy it may be there this time of year, I won't be there for Memorial Day weekend.

Thanks,

Well, I was there last May from the 11th to the 21st. The 11th to the 20th were great! I noticed the day we were leaving (the 21st) it was EXTREMELY more crowded than the week before. Then I found out it was because the southern schools had gotten out the day before. I don't think it'll be as busy as peak times, but it's definitely busier than the first 3 weeks of the month.

I have been in late May several times, and it's usually a lower attendance time. Most people still have their kids in school.

We were there in 2004 at that time and it was crowded in our opinion. To make things worse it was very hot for May with temperatures above 90. Don't get me wrong, it was a fantastic trip, but we had to plan, use FP, and get to the parks early to avoid long lines. You should enjoy it just fine, but know what to expect when you get there.
