Guest Disney Vacation Planning, Special Needs at Disney World , , , , 0 Comment

Walking into a Walt Disney World Resort, is like leaving reality and entering a new magical story. Disney’s Polynesian Resort takes you away to a tropical paradise, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge takes you on safari and Disney’s Art of Animation lets you be immersed in some of your favorite Disney movies. Each offers a new and unique experience! With that being said, spending the night in a new environment or being in an unfamiliar place can be overwhelming to someone who has special needs. I would like to share my personal experience about staying in the resorts with my brother, who has a high functioning form of autism. Read more

It gets hot and busy but that’s the perfect time to get a cool snack, or a cold drink and find a little shade to people watch from. When we plan our Disney vacations, advanced dining reservations are a must, especially when food allergies are involved. We usually make reservations for the bigger meals, either breakfast or dinner.   That doesn’t mean that we don’t get hungry during the day though!
