Jan early Feb or May...plz help

[spereira]

O.K here's my dilemma.....I am in charge of planning a family vacation next yr 2007 to WDW.....I have been many, many times but my family has never been. I am debating between going the end of Jan,early Feb or May. I want this to be the best experience for them..I have been trying for 12 years to get everyone down there and now they are all planning to come.

The party consists of myself 30, DH 31, FIL 58, MIL 58, SIL 25, nephew 2 1/2
family friends 33 and 34 and their two daughters 5 and 3.

Which month do you think would be the best?

My choice would be May. January and February weather can be unpredictable (we were there last January when a cold snap hit - 30 degrees at night and 50 during the day - not my idea of vacation weather!!). We've been in mid-May and late May and we found the crowds and weather to be a little better earlier in the month so this year we're going the first week of May but a lot of people on these boards will agree that any week in May is a great time of year to go. You also have the Epcot Flower & Garden Festival in May which is wonderful!!

Have fun planning!!

I vote for jan or Feb but not May. May has some benefits like the flower and garden festival but it is very hot. Also schools here in souht Florida end the first part of May so it can be much more crowded than Jan or Feb. I like thta in Jan and Feb the weather will be cooler and at least bearable.
