(Note: This was for 2005. They didn't yet have a DL brochure for 2006.) Is mid-March to early April truly "peak" season for DL? Will it be "peak" in 2006? If so, yikes! We were tentatively planning to be at DL for a couple of days in early April next year. Will we be facing Christmas-like crowds???

Originally Posted By Neverland I found our late march trip to be a complete pain two years in a row now. DL does a 2 week 'spring break' schedule, but schools no longer consistently put their breaks within that period. Both times we have ended up with mid week crowds more substantial than a summermid week crowd. We ended up with the worst of both worlds- off peak rehab schedule, off peak hours, peak crowds.
