Looking to see if there is a lighter day of the week in mid-June to take the grandkids. Yes, I know it's all relative at that time of year, but any suggestions would be welcome.

According to this website, Sunday is the least crowded day of the week.
Second is Monday. Third is Saturday.

Universal is opening a new Transformers 3D ride on June 20 so the park will probably be packed from June 20th on.

Take a look at
Universal Orlando Crowd Calendar

Touring Plans shows a couple of weeks worth of info for free. They have subscriptions to their crowd calendars for both WDW and Universal. While I have no financial interest in it, I have been using Touring Plans for several years and (before we moved to TV) used it to plan our trips - with a subscription, you can see 365 days out. So far, I have found them to be wrong once. If you look at their Lines computer/phone app. you can see surprisingly accurate wait times for each attraction.

As big a factor as crowd size is when you get to the park. Simply put, be there by 8:15 to buy tickets and be in line for rope drop (which often happens 15-30 minutes before the advertised time. I'd suggest doing Islands of Adventure first and going *directly* to Harry Potter. Do it that way and you can probably get in two rides before the lines get totally crazy.

Good luck!
