Almost no wait time other than Soarin' and Toy Mania. We just go to those early. We love going in Jan. and have been going for 4 or 5 years. As far as the cold is concerned, we just take layers. LL Bean makes a great polar fleece jacket and all the adults have one. It's great in almost any weather!!

That is so cool blue! They weren't doing that in '06 when DH and I got married.

And typically Jan. is an excellent time to visit WDW, no crowds or humidity!

Well like i said my DF and I have only been when it has been sooooo busy Newyear and then in July, so im excited that he is going to see a different side of Disney. He did love the water park the best when we went on New years only because it was the least crowded.

Well January is a great time if it isnt too cold!! We are hoping to stay on the beach for the first couple of days and then check into disney and stay for 10 days......should be a great time, but we still havnt decided on what resort or any special events or tours or even resturants yet..

Has anyone seen anything else as far as discounts? I guess the travel agent said to hold out until the end of Aug. because then the pricing usually comes out. I just hope things dont fill up to fast and we can get the rooms and everything we want.

My agent told me we should be hearing about Free Dining sometime in April. In the last several years, Free Dining has started at the middle of August and run to October...maybe into it a little bit. My honeymoon starts August 29th...so I am hoping we get free dining. It would save us a good bit of money and make our current ADRs worthwhile.

Yea, we are going in January of 2011 so I am hoping that they will do the same. It is a huge savings and is a great insentive for people to go. I also wouldnt mind the 40% off deluxe resort promo either that would be great for the honeymoon room!!

Thanks those are some great websites. We are supposed to sit with the AAA agent in August to schedule everything when the prices come out.

Im still up in the air about which resort...........there are so many nice choices, but like I said my DF wants to stay somewhere when he goes back to the room you dont even know your in disney. He like the beach idea so i was thinking between Poly or Carrb. but i personally am up in the air, I think that I might like the boardwalk or the Animal Kingdom.
Suggestions?

My DF and I went through the same thing. We were pretty sure we wanted the Contemporary because the rooms are so beautiful, but because of cost we went with Port Orleans Riverside. Sure, all rooms in moderate resorts look the same with minor decorating differences...but the outside of POR and the grounds along with POFQ make it the most charming. Just walking around the resort area looks to be romantic and a place that takes you away from WDW and puts you in the charming old South.

If cost doesn't matter to you at all, then Contemporary will have the nicest rooms, Poly will have the Hawaii feeling, Grand Floridian will have massages and ultimate dining right there, Animal Kingdom Lodge will have a balcony that overlooks animals walking around...definitely an exciting experience.

My DF and I chose the best of the moderates in POR...plus it has a lot of private pools for more quiet time. It is also the most centrally located resort (along with POFQ) in the entire complex...so no park is too far away.
