We still had a good time on our trip despite the small crowds.

Even Indiana Jones was only 10 minutes, and that's because you have to stop for the safety movie. If there is early entry, don't go to Nemo until later in the day. At rope drop the line was an hour. It cut in half by afternoon and never got that long again.

We actually got to walk on Space Mountain, which is saying a lot. The crowds seem smaller though because the park is not opened as late. You also get AP DIsney hotel discounts until May 31, so I think that this is a good indicator of the lower crowds. I would recommend a weekday in May to anyone. On a side note, hey SleepingBeauty82! You are only a year younger than me! Have fun on your birthday!
Originally Posted By disneymum I would also recommend a week day in May. We were there May 13-16. Wednesday and Thursday were great with very small waits. Friday was busier, but we had planned for that and had mostly done everything we wanted to do the days previous. I am already planning a trip during this time period for next year.
