When are all the spring breaks?

[mckymama]

Hello everyone. We are headed down there on 4/5 and will be there until 4/12. I can't wait to get away from this ugly weather in Indiana!!! This is our first time to go to Orlando and not do anything Disney. We are visiting US/IOA, Sea World, Aquatica and Kennedy Space Center. It seems that our spring break is kind of late this year, and I'm trying to figure out how big the crowds will be that week. I have read on these boards that when the parks close early, 7 p.m., the crowds are smaller. We are not staying on-site because there are 6 of us, and the condo price was too good to pass up. So FOTL is not an option. We will have fun no matter what, and am looking forward to NOT keeping that frenetic pace that we always do at WDW. I'll make sure to post a trip report and plenty of pics when we return. In the meantime, thanks to everyone for all the great suggestions here.

Welcome and I'm sure you'll have a great time at Universal. The crowds should be gone by then so you probably won't need the Express Passes during that week...Sea World should be easy to deal with too.

Yeah by the time you go schools should be back in session cause I know where we live thier break is 3/31-4/4 so I think your safe

Me and my family will be there the 5th to the 7th as well since our spring break is late also

Orlando schools started Spring Break yesterday (March 28) and will be on break all next week (March 31- April 4).

Much of Illinois had breaks either the week before or the week after Easter.

Just from another part of Indiana (hi neighbor!!) we are on Spring Break right now (thru April 4) as is all the surrounding area.

Have fun in the FL sunshine
We are headed to Cincinnati for opening week for the Reds (go every year) and I am just thrilled it won't be 20 degrees and snowing this year!!!

 

[mckymama]

That's why I love these boards. Kathy, have a great time in Cincinnati. I love that city. I'll let you all know about Kennedy Space Center. I've never been there, and don't hear too many people talk about it, but I know a couple people who have been there and they loved it. Now if the weather will only cooperate . . . weather.com is showing thunderstorms the first few days when we arrive. So we will pack ponchos, good attitudes (I'm going with DH and 4 teenage boys, so they don't care), and maybe enjoy smaller crowds on rainy days. Take care everyone.

Many parts of Georgia are on spring break from April 5th to the 12th.

We're in Georgia, and most of the schools in this area have that same week for spring break. It's usually the first full week in April and is not tied to Easter.
