I don't think it will be crowded but if you're 40 weeks I'd stay close to home, really. [ Reply | More ]

DON'T GO!!! We went- on a Wednesday- 2 weeks ago, and it was swarming with city camp kids. I waited 45 minutes to pee. My two year old could hardly see anything b/c so many kids pressed up against every display. Was with a friend who was 39 wks and she was miserable. Skip it. And Congrats! [ Reply | More ]

if you have a car, why not go to the movies, or to the mall? I'm thinking purely in terms of air conditioning comfort, and of being indoors. Plus, you might not get to go to the movies again for awhile. [ Reply | More ]

update from op: we went around 1 and it was so packed...we have a membership, so we just went inside to use the bathroom and headed to the beach and astroland. the line for the bathroom was super-long (as the 2nd poster described), and there were way too many camp kids there. but the beach was fun, and dd loved astroland...we returned to the aquarium around 3 and it was deserted. so nice. i noticed the camp kids leaving around 2:30...good to keep this in mind if anyone else is heading down there and wants to avoid crowds. thanks to all for the replies. it was good to know in advance that it would be crowded earlier in the day. we had a really fun day!
