We were at the parks in March during Spring Break and the crowds seemed reasonable. What can we expect next week during the Summer? Twice as many people? Ten times? Should we rethink our travel plans and go later? We have two kids, 2 and 5. Thanks for your advice

Summer is more crowded because many schools have different spring breaks.

The Spring Break crowds are squeezed into a two to three week window of opportunity, while the summer season lasts ten to twelve weeks. I think you may find the crowds comparable to or even a little less than Spring Break.

Your biggest challenge, however, may be the weather. It has been HOT and MUGGY here this week, with forecasts for HOTTER and MUGGIER this weekend. If the weather holds through next week, be sure to plan your hot weather strategy, i.e. afternoon breaks, dips in the hotel pool, drinking plenty of liquids.

Thanks for the tips. How is the weather now? We have until Sunday to postpone so I'm checking the heat wave info every day. What is it really like down there with the fires and heat?
