I vote for May, lovebugs or not.
We did a convention there end July first Aug couple of years ago. Feedback form asked for BEST part about convention - at WDW.

Also wanted to know WORST part of convention - WDW in August.

They must have gotten ALOT of the same type comment because it was in June the following year!

Re: May vs. August

Oh my! Thanks everyone. I am sold on May.

My two friends and I have 4-year old boys. So, all three will be in preschool and have a bit more flexibility in missing school. One of those two friends also has an 8-year old daughter. It's because of her that the time of year is questionable. Thankfully, she is an excellent student. So, my friends is going to speak to her daughter's teacher at next week's parent-teacher conference and see if they can work something out.

Anyway, if I had the chance to plan a May trip, I would do it without any regard to any other time. Here is a photo of why:

Wow, that's so cool. AK and MK are my staples. Last year, we tried MGM. I think this year we'll try Epcot. I'd love to see Flower & Garden show.
