we always go in april during spring break week, which is usually the last week or second to last week in april. But my school break is the first week in april this year(college) which i actually dont think will be too busy this year because easter isn't until the end of april. Easter is at the beginning of the school vacation week for k-12 in the north east at least. We have never been in november, thinking about going the week after thanksgiving in 2011? but we dont know yet
