So - February 9?

We will be flying into Orlando on February 9 - headed down to Naples for the week...dh actually suggested that maybe we should stop by WDW upon arriving! His comment was - "hey, after all - I have an Annual Pass burning a hole in my pocket!" Isn't he so cute???
So - I called Disney today and there is no availability at any resort except Boardwalk! Why? Is it just that busy right now? I really wasn't expecting that!
I was so hoping to be able to get into a moderate resort. Is it because we just want one night?
Should I keep trying?

Never give up! I would love it no matter where I ended up staying. It may be because of the presidents holidays coming up that it is so busy.

It's winter in Florida, everyone is here. Various schools also have winter breaks as well. Very busy time of year.

That's the beginning of Daytona Speedweek. The Daytona 500 front-row qualifying is that afternoon and the Bud Shootout is that night. A lot of race fans are in FLA for the entire week.... The Daytona 500 draws almost 300,000 people.

No - nothing available now except SSR - one bedroom villa!

Did you see that availability online at the WDW web site?

I will check again in the morning!

I think Rob got it right! The race is drawing a lot of folks. We have to move from CS to All Stars Movie the last day of our stay. I was really hoping for POR but nothing was available there when we booked in early Nov 07. A few people I our group are driving to Daytona, me I'm Disney all the way.
Hope you find an open room to book. Good Luck.

Ooooh I'm arriving on 2/9 and I hope it's all race fans that won't be hogging up the parks! I absolutely despise crowds at Disney! Good luck getting a moderate room! I think you'll luck out! Look on hotels.com and orbitz.com too! I found all of the mods on there about three weeks ago!

I am home from school today - SNOW day!
I was able to get a room at Coronoda Springs!!!!!!! YAY!
So - we are booked for one night! I can't believe that I didn't have to
say anything about going to Disney - that dh thought of it all by himself!
Maybe - getting him his own AP was a smart thing for me to do!
Oooooooo - I am so excited - I have never stayed at CS before!
Thanks for the advice everyone!
