It's my goal to try to attend the Flower and Garden Festival (hopefully next spring). We did the Food and Wine Festival twice and now I'd like to do something special in the spring. I'm hoping for a trip with just my husband and myself (no kids!) We'll have to see how the funds go, ya know? :wink:

I was just there and I saw them setting up the thing like you could see where they are planning to plant stuff there are lines in the grass showing the pictures tehy are making in the plants! It looks pretty weird when your on the monorail seeing paint lines all over the grass showing pictures! Lol!

It's great!!!!!!!!! We've been there 5 times!! May is such a great time of year at WDW!! If you go early in the Fest the crowds are smaller, We are usually there when the Star Wars fest is going on at MDM.

We went for the first time in Early May during the Flower and Garden Festival and it was beautiful. The weather was very hot during the day, but was cool for us at night. Which I really enjoyed.
