Re: Sell Your Season

well...I go with my family right before christmas time...and I personally think it is the best...two of my favorite things...christmas and disney!!! The crowds aren't that bad in between thanksgiving and christmas eve/day...and everyone and everything is in the spirit of the season! The weather is chilly...even for Florida...but comfortable and inviting to us Floridians!

Re: Sell Your Season

I voted Christmas break. We went the 1st two weeks of Dec. 2004 and it was the most wonderful, magical experience. You get christmas music, sung by disney characters. The best of both worlds.

If you are going during the school christmas break, there are crowds, but I would choose christmas break over spring break just for the christmas feeling.

Now about the weather in December, I am a native of Colorado and the weather was AWESOME. I only wore jeans at night. I know it was warmer this past christmas, but wow it was great. We went in Jan. a few years back and it was mild. Definitly just jeans and a sweatshirt.

Hope this helps a little

Re: Sell Your Season

I have to go with Christmas. I can't imagine a more magical Christmas than spending it with your family at WDW - for the decorations alone.

Re: Sell Your Season

If we went at Christmas, it would be between Christmas and New Years. Busy, huh?

Re: Sell Your Season

Christmas is definitely it. There is nothing like Disney at Christmas Time, the resorts are decked out in all their splendor and so are the parks. Personally since we live in FL and and only live an hour away, we go at both times, but Christmas is definitely the nicer and I think a little less crowded. Also the weather is better.

Re: Sell Your Season

I voted Christmas!! I love Christmas in general - I start playing my Christmas CDs before Thanksgiving - but Christmas in Disney is amazing! I'm dying to go back to Disney at Christmas time. It's just so gorgeous, and I love it when it snows on Main Street. :)

Re: Sell Your Season

Looks like Christmas time is everybody's favorite. We went the week of christmas a couple years ago and it was awesome. The decorations are breathtaking.It was crowded but the parks were opened til midnight. I would go back at Christmas in a minute.
