Right I've decided to stop stressing about this and instead need to get myself organised!!!

I wasn't going to bother with booking many restaurants this trip as I fancied being more spontaneous, but I think I'd better re-think that strategy!

(I'm lying a bit there - it was more that I can't decide where to eat! ha ha)  :D

Some of the sites aren't accurate with non common holidays

Like this week in May is not usual for us .... And looking at the online school holiday calander I have it's not listed in all the sites online ....

But it is listed on some ...someone who lives in said country is likely to know better :)

Ok I am going those exact same dates, so good choice  8) I am tied to going in school holidays unfortunately and the school I am in is closed that week (Ireland).

To answer your question - the Thursday is a holiday (holy day) in France so likely to be very busy. The Monday slightly so and the Tues and Wed should be quiet enough. I don't think UK schools are off until near the end of May for their mid-term.

So my plan is to try and get as much done on Tues/Wed as possible so Thurs and Fri will be catching shows, swimming and chilling out as much as we can. We will use our fastpasses those days to repeat some rides.

Thank all!

I'm glad I found out before I went! Going to move around my plans a bit to accommodate. I wasn't going to book meals for Thursday but will now!

& will also plan to do the shoes then & concentrate on the rides on Tuesday & Wednesday.

i dont know if this helps but we were there over the French and Spanish half term in Feb and to be honest we didnt find it that busy apart from the usual like ratouille and Crusher having silly queuing time everything else was great between 25- 50 mins although on the sat it was heaving so it just depends.
If you plan well and use fast passes, i would suggest doing the studios late afternoon as this appears to be the quiet time and plan your meet and greets well you shouldnt have too many issues.
whatever you will have a brilliant time!
I've checked your dates again and it is only a holiday in Spain on the Monday! have fun!
