January Downsides

Are there any?

We're planning a Dutch/ Flemish Renaissance Art trip for next winter and will probably do all our future overseas travelling in the winter (Dec, Jan). We don't mind the cold and spend most of our time in art museums, cathedrals and restaurants.

Respiratory infections tend to circulate much more easily in winter. Fewer hours of daylight.

For me, the upsides of low crowds in those museums, cathedrals, and restaurants outweights the downsides of the short days, cooler temps and rainy weather.
