When is a good time to go?

[Dayma]

I am planning to give my wife for X-MAS a Disney vacation. I have been there 8X and for the last 4 years we have always gone in May.

When would be a good time to go between Jan and April?

I am looking for a good time to go when crowds are light and the air is warm enough to swim in...

Thanks in advance...

We went once over superbowl weekend. Crowds were very very light, but it wasn't warm enough to swim. My son was about 1 1/2 y/old at the time and I walked around with him stuffed in my jacket with his head poking out the top like a kangaroo.

We have also gone the week after Valentine's day. It was much warmer and the crowds were still pretty light. Just try and figure out when most schools are planning their spring break weeks. Avoid that at all costs.

Two year's ago we went November 4th - 11th and were very happy with the crowd sizes. This year we are going December 6th - 13th (let the countdown begin). I actually enjoy going when the parks close earlier. With our young ones they get plenty of park time (smaller crowds), and still crash out early in the evening.
