Disney has long been part of my family vacation memories. My first trip was when I was not quite three years old and I’ve finally lost count as to how many times we’ve been back. That first trip, I have very distinct memories of my parents taking me for breakfast at Tony’s on Main Street […]
Making the most of your day or short trip at Disneyland can be tricky, especially for new visitors. With eight Lands in Disneyland Park alone, how do you fill your day without tiring out your family? The lines, often longer for the E-Ticket rides, can be the leading cause of “lost” time in the park. […]
You have heard the rumors, watched the commercials, and attempted to get a Fastpass + and now you are waiting your turn to experience the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train (7DMT) in the Magic Kingdom’s new Fantasyland. Information about this ride is everywhere but I would like to answer a few questions that many may be […]
Last week while pumping gas at our local Quik Trip, I had a moment. The pavement was damp from an early morning shower, the sun was rising and casting long shadows between the gas pumps, and the audio speakers were playing a catchy toe-tapping tune.

Recently, my family and I stayed at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort, which is located in the Disney Springs area of Walt Disney World Resort.

Walt Disney World is so much fun! There is so much to see and so much to do. So much that, at times, it can become too much for any member of the family. And then it might rain, or it might be hot, or your youngest might not be tall enough to ride an […]
Being the romantic that I am, I decided to propose to my wife on her birthday in front of Cinderella’s Castle in the Magic Kingdom (another tale for, perhaps, another post). She, of course, said yes, and we decided to celebrate the occasion by dining at a restaurant that very much peaked her interest, Teppan […]
Often times I hear remarks from adults who have not been to Walt Disney World that resemble the phrases “Disney World is just for kids.” “Why would I want to spend my vacation at a theme park?” I often smirk and wonder how someone could be saying these things about my favorite vacation destination. After […]
Part 1 / Part 2 The most obvious and grand addition to California Adventure is Cars Land on the east side of the park. This recreation of Radiator Springs is a place all its own, complete with restaurants, shops, and attractions. If you’re there long enough, you may even run into Lightning McQueen or Mater! This car-mazing duo […]
