August 2011

I am a bit worried about the heat in August, but it's the most reasonable time to go price-wise while DS is not in school. What is everyone planning to do to beat the heat?

I went at the end of Aug in 2009 and jumped into the shower in the morning so I could go out with my hair wet. That helped keep me cool for a little bit in the morning. If it became too unbearable during the day, a wet cloth on the back of your neck and/or on your wrists can really help too.
 
My family and usually go in August because of my son's baseball season. We have been lucky and sneaked away for two July 4th vacations to WDW. All other times [8] have been in August.

This year though, my wife has to go on a cruise or my son and I will get lynched. She loves WDW but not as much as my 14y/o and me. So me being the nice guy that I am - I am planning a cruise [out of Port Canaveral of course] and then since we're down here [wink,wink];) I will conveniently book a week at WDW.

So to answer the question, I am looking at August 2-10, 2011 at our one and only resort CBR!

Great thread by the way!

Out of Newark? I'm going back and forth with the TA about dates and ressies, but it looks like it'll be 8/24-30 so I'll be looking for flights on Jet Blue out of Newark! Maybe we'll end up on the same plane.I didn't even think flights for those dates were out yet, I'd better go check it out.

Congrats on booking your flights. It is soooo exciting!
