Course, I live in hot and humid MO and no a/c for me, so that time frame was no big deal.

I've seen the ginger bread houses and other things on the Travel Channel, and it looks amazing!

We also watched the Travel Channel special on Disney at Christmas time and the preparations that they need to do to get everything ready. Just wait until you see the ginger bread houses and the other decorations in person. It is truly spectacular.

You guys have confirmed my decision! And I can't wait to see the lights and decorations (I've seen DL but not WDW -- Yahoo!) ºoº

Originally Posted By tuknshak Ok I just opened this topic and was wondering the same thing.

Is April/May a good time of year for weather?

Originally Posted By LuvDatDisney April and May are great times to go weather-wise, although things do start to get more humid and rainy the later you push it.
