Me and my boyfriend are thinking of doing Christmas in Florida, we are on a fixed budget and we want to come the week of Christmas, I know its bad timing as it will be crowded...but like, we want a magical Christmas! Any ideas? Warm weather would be nice...possibly Disney...but like I have gotten discouraged because people say its going to be crowded...but how bad is it? The crowds are obviously people who would love a magical Christmas too...I don’t know...and my boyfriend has left me to figure it all out myself!
Any alternate ideas are welcome please...anything!
Also, we were thinking of a cheap 3 day cruise...any ideas?
We will drive out there Thursday night and spend Friday to Tuesday (leave on Tuesday). So just any ideas...help me!

I live in Georgia, my boyfriend lives in New York and we will be spending New Years in New York, so the snow, the concerts...all of that would be awesome! He wants to come here for christmas, but I dont want to stay in GA for Christmas, it was kind of boring for me last year. This holiday will decide where we are going to live when we get married...so I want the south to be delightful for him. P.S my family aren't in the United States, so its just me and him!

I have lived in Fla my hole life so i wouldn't know what a Christmas is like in the snow but i bet it's beautiful. Now this week it's suppose to get cold on Friday and i do hope for a cool Christmas it's always so warm and then it doesn't seem like Christmas, anyway I 'am sure you would enjoy coming to Fla this year for Christmas and Disney would be a great place to go but it will be very crowded this time of the year. Where do you live ? You said you were driving down? There is alot of places you could go , you could spend the weekend at the beaches, or the cruise would be nice. Whatever you do i hope you enjoy your selves here in Fla.

That's EXACTLY what my husband & I were going to do because the flights were cheap at one point to go to Florida. I decided not too though because my brother works at Disney and he said that it is a bad time to come because the crowds. He said most of the shows at the resorts at Disney are sold out, but the lines aren't TOO bad, but still pretty busy. I would think the cruise sounds nicer. I lived in Florida and yeah Christmas was weird without the snow, but if you're looking for warm weather, inexpensive fun I would take the cruise.

As a born and raised Floridian married to a born and raised Minnesotan, i understand you'll leave out quite alot for the duration of a Florida Christmas. even with the undeniable fact that, we nonetheless do the very similar issues that you adventure over the Christmas season. we've sleigh rides, ice skating, or perhaps snow (frequently bubbles yet nonetheless snow). We do have fireplaces down the following, so so you could be in a position to savor that little luxurious. We do nonetheless beautify our homes, some human beings nonetheless bypass slightly loopy. We only have extra relaxing with it, we get rid of darkness from our palm bushes as well our homes or have purple flamingos with Santa hats in our backyard. Spending a Christmas in Florida continues to be particularly marvelous. we've each and every thing you've except the chilly climate/snow. as well, the position else are you able to bypass to the coastline or bypass swimming on Christmas Day???

A much cheaper alternate would be Christmas in Mexico. It's warm and you don't have to stay in the tourista hotels if cost is a big factor. Mexico loves Christmas as much as we do. But it is less commercial and more of the religious holiday it's supposed to be. Felize Navidad! :o)

How can Christmas be magical without family and snowflakes? Spend Christmas with your families that's where the true magic is.
