Wintertime at Disneyland brings a different experience than other times of the year and with it, advantages and disadvantages. If you're looking for cooler weather, smaller crowds, shorter wait times, and the celebration of Lunar New Year, then visiting Disneyland in January or February is something you should consider. However, you'll also need to be aware that the park hours are much shorter, some rides are closed for yearly maintenance, and you'll need to bring layers of clothing as the temperatures can vary quite a bit throughout the day.

Darrell and his daughter, Addi, just returned from a trip to Disneyland, and they'll share their experience with these pros and cons, as well as their take on Disney Genie +, Lightning Lane, the Lunar New Year experience, and their stay at the Howard Johnson in Anaheim. The bottom line for them is late January is a great time to visit with the pros outweighing the cons by a wide margin.
