Help!

[Ally&Alec's Mom]

We are planning another trip to Disney for a just a short visit 2-3 days, but heh its better than nothing! We went last October 2005, and I did months of planning and decided the best time to go was in October because it was listed as a fairly quiet time, well HELLO! IT was soooo busy! Ends up Florida, Georgia, etc had a week off from school! Now we are planning to go sometime next winter after mid february thru late March, I dont care if the kids will miss some time out of school, we will not go during mid winter or spring break! What are the quietest times to visit???? HELP! Thank you!

I can't answer your question directly, but I can tell you that Spring break for the Southern schools is almost always in March. I work at the University of Alabama and ours will be March 9-16....my kids in public high school will have their's March 19-23. My point is...March may be very busy since I think most Southern states take their spring breaks that early.

So I would recommend in Febrary if you want to do it Feb or March. My absolute best recommendation is in early January....but you didn't list that as a possibility.

Early Feb or early March has always been quiet for us!

I have had success with the week before Labor Day as well as Late-April (post-spring break)

Be careful to avoid Presidents' Day in late February.

We were there last October, and if it weren't for the fact we got to the parks early, we would have had long waits. Initially we booked this October, but changed to January, after the marathon and MLK day. It's midway between our birthdays, so this will count as birthday present for both of us, with the exception of a few diamonds thrown her way.

By the way, what is the proper gift for 29th anniversary...Chocolate???
