Which time frame do you prefer to visit for vacation, MVMCP or MNSSHP? Considering weather, events, crowds, etc.. . Thanks trying to decide when to do our 2nd trip for 2006. Thanks. MKY
I like going in October more than December. I love Halloween so I really enjoyed MNSSHP more than MVMCP. It was so much fun seeing everyone in their costumes, the parade was great, and we got tons of yummy candy. Also, there's the F&W Festival which was my absolute favorite event. We had a great time sampling different types of food from the various countries. There's also entertainment, culinary demonstrations and special events you can attend.
The weather was so much better in October '05 than when I went in Dec. '04. In October the weather was just perfect. I wore tank tops and sometimes a light sweater. In December it was freezing and I wore a coat practically the whole time. (and I'm from Oregon where it's always raining and cold )
The crowds were fine during both times. During October, the crowds increased on the weekends at Epcot because of the F&W Festival. But I went to Epcot on the weekends and had a great time.
We did MVMCP last December and MNSSHP this past October. I prefer December. It was less crowded and the weather was a lot better. I'd rather be at WDW when it's a little cooler out. It rained every day we were there in October.
