Presidents Week 2012, should I be scared?

[MinnieTink]

Well, since the DDs are in middle and high school the days of taking them out of school for a Disney trip are over for us. We are considering going in February, as they have off during Presidents week. Any experiences or advice would be great!

PS Our other option is Easter week in April but I think I'm more apprehensive about the crowds that week, is that correct?

Thanks for your input!

Pres week is a bit crowded but managable. During Pres week the schools in the New England states have winter break. Also twirl mania competition is that week so DONT plan to stay at a value resort or CBR those resorts are over run with teenage girls. Plus its also Dayatona 500 race week and a lot of race fans stay at Disney. What you have to worry about is the weather. It can be rather cold. We always take coats, hats/gloves with us.

Thanks for the info. We have been many times so we don't worry too much if we can't get on certain attractions etc. We have been there done that, but we are still looking for a WDW fix!

I guess we can just hope that the weather is at least warmer than here. At least there won't be piles of gross dirty snow all over, like there will be here, I'm sure.
