Our family’s first visit to the “happiest place on earth.”
In December of 2012 I took a trip with my family to Disney World. (Seeing the Magic Kingdom during Christmastime, check, I can knock that off the bucket list!) It was magical, yes… and the magic started before we even arrived at our hotel. (I’m not talking about the Magical Express, but that’s pretty great…
This December I got to do something I’ve long wanted to do…I got to spend part of the most wonderful time of the year in the most magical place on earth. Yep, I’m talking Christmastime at Disney World. Ever since my family got back from our first trip to Disney World three years ago, I’ve…
For our last full day in a park, and our second at Hollywood Studios (on a 7 day pass we spent 3 days at Magic Kingdom, 2 at Hollywood Studios, 1 at Animal Kingdom, and 1 at Epcot) we had lunch scheduled at Play N’ Dine at Hollywood and Vine. We managed to squeeze a…
As promised last week, there is such a smorgasbord of stuff to say about dining in Disney world (I apologize for the food metaphors…but I can’t help it…and will probably continue, so consider yourself warned) that over the next several Thursday Disney posts, I will cover a little bit of our experience at a time.…
I had no idea just how much information is out there about eating in Disney World. It’s a little scary actually. When the whirlwind mania of planning our trip began, I hadn’t thought much about it – Lil’ G required baby food, Miss A and the husband are two of the world’s pickiest eaters, and…
When you plan a Disney vacation, trying to decide whether you will stay “on property” vs. an off-site hotel is one of the biggest decisions to make…and it affects many of the the choices you make thereafter. Disney knows this and has been doing their best to lure vacationers to come and stay and play…
I had planned on doing a very helpful and informative post about making travel arrangements for your Disney trip, including airline choices and use of Disney’s Magical Express, but it’s been a long couple of days and I’m tired – and we’re going to the Museum of Science and Industry in the morning to see…
It’s Thursday. You know what that means…time for me to delight you all with more Disney-ana (I made that up, does it work for you?). As I mentioned last week, this trip was mainly planned for Miss A. So I put quite a bit of thought into how I wanted to tell her. Our trip…
I may have mentioned once or twice or fifty times that we recently went on a vacation to Disney World. I had big ambitious plans to bestow upon you all wonderful insights, advice, suggestions, trip highlights, near disasters, don’t miss this ideas, photos, and…more photos. Then I got busy with something else. But I really…
Then why try re-inventing the wheel? I am s-l-o-w-l-y editing the 1000+ Disney pics so I can order prints and eventually enjoy a little scrapbooking fun (yes, I am one of THOSE people), and while loading some pics onto my flickr page, I thought I’d take a peek at what other people post on flickr…
