We're AP holders and planning on taking a short 3 day drip to DLR in July for my daughter's 3rd birthday.
I have a few questions. We've never gone during peak season. Normally I'd avoid it at all cost, actually. But we figured we'd go ahead and take advantage of the AP as much as possible. Right now we're looking at either July 11-13(or 14) or July 18-20(or 21). Both are T-Thur(F). My daughter's birthday is the 13th so I'd sort of prefer that week, but was wondering if one week would be slower than the other? I'm assuming it's going to be crazy busy b/c it's peak season and the 50th is going on, right? I have 3 toddlers and I don't want them to be miserable waiting in lines all day.
I've been looking at hotels and they are rather expensive those weeks. We've gotten pretty spoiled with off-season rates I guess. Anyway, any suggestions on how to get the best deal? There will be 5 of us going.
Lastly, does anyone know if any conventions are going on either of those weeks? I went in Feb. when the cheerleaders were there and it was sooo crowded! I'd like to avoid going during a major convention again if possible.
