So, hubby and I are very seriously considering doing a trip just for MNSSHP this year. We can get cheap flights and a great deal at Beach Club for a short stint the last week in August: we'd be coming in for a couple days at Stormalong Bay and the party only, no regular park tickets. The girls don't start school until after Labor Day, so this would be our end-of-summer celebration.
My concern: the party that fits with the cheap flights/room is the 8/27 party. Given the timing of SWGE opening, do you think that party will end up super crowded? Any other year, a late August Tuesday is your best bet for low(er) crowds, but I'm worried that folks will come in a few days before SWGE and start their trip off with a party. Or, are the parties so crowded in general these days that even the lightest day of the year is still going to feel congested, so it really doesn't matter?
