Which is busier, week before Easter Sunday or after easter Sunday?

[Edina]

This year our schools are out the week prior to Easter Sunday for Spring break, but next year they are out the week after Easter Sunday. Im trying to figure out which week is considered "high season" or peak the week before, or after. Any insights? Thanks.

From what I've saw/heard/read . . .both weeks are pretty busy.

We went Easter 2000 . . .and it was very crowded . . .it was more crowded than July 4th 2002 . . .Not sure if Easter 2000 was real crowded because of the Millenium Celebration or what . . .
