How were the crowds starting January 2. We are considering keeping the kids out a little longer for their Christmas break and going to WDW on the 2nd. They would miss a minimum amount of time and it is also the beginning of a new semester. We went in June of last year and would like to try on off season.. We have to decide if the decrease in crowds warrants taking them out of school. Any other value season would not work with their school schedule.
