I'm going on the 13th for 6 days! I can't wait...went last January and I swear you SO NEED TO TAKE THERMALS!!! I've even bought snow boots for next year and a ski suit!! It was so cold it stung your lungs!!

All good though and I would hate to go in the summer with all the crowds! We never queued once and although it might be busier this year for the opening of TOT I reckin it will still be good!

Anyway have a nice time!

 

[thelittlemermaid83]

THERMALS??lol
I think those Ugg boots mite be a good purchase now lol.

 

[poppyolivia]

Seriously it is really cold...or maybe I'm just a wimp!!! Ugg boots defo need to go with you!!! I bought some brown Animal snow boots and they are the comfiest pair of boots I have ever bought...kinda makes me look like Bigfoot though!!

By the way looks like its only us going in January!!!heehee

Starting three years ago we now go every January as it's SOOO cheap. One day and night free and kids go free too, plus it's low season. Added to that, almost no queues.
The downside is, as said above, it's can be really cold. So we've invested in full waterproofs and fleeces. We stick the kids in snow suits, and we use indoor rides to warm up.
Having said that, last year it was much warmer than the previous one, and although it rained the temperature was fine.

Going on the 26th Jan - we were there on the 5th the other year and god was it cold. Minus 5 at one point - we rode BTM whilst it was snowing and it was so heavy we'd got our scarves wrapped round our heads and didn't actually see any of the ride - it was like doing it in the pitch black. Thermals or tights under jeans are a must. That Marne wind can really cut across the more exposed bits.

 

[wendybird7]

absolutely

but as long as you dress for it and have lots of hot chocolate stops, it really is worth the cut price and crowds!

 

[ruthiebabie]

Hot choc with cream for me outside the deli whilst watching the parade. Yum

 

[thelittlemermaid83]

awww if it snows how magical will that be.

 

[Ware Bears]

Very magical but only if you're wearing thermals!!

Hi simsim and ruthiebabie, welcome to the DIS!
