When it comes to an “out of this world” experience, it’s hard to beat “Rise of the Resistance”, located in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. As a completely immersive experience, Guests will – in many ways – feel like they have left Earth and have landed in a “galaxy far, far away”. Read more
For many folks, a tropical island vacation means a vacation to the Hawaiian islands, and for good reason. With its one-of-a-kind culture, spectacular beaches, and endless room for adventure, to say nothing of the majestic waterfalls, volcanoes, and rugged mountain landscapes waiting to be explored – the appeal of a vacation to Hawaii is obvious.
Until they look at the flights.
When travelers realize that most flights from the west coast of the U.S. are at least 6 hours – along with the cost of that airfare – for many, that is the end of their dreams of a vacation in paradise.
But it’s not necessary to give up hope of enjoying a tropical vacation on a beautiful island. There are a number of Caribbean islands which match Hawaii in beauty (and some would say even better than what you can experience in the Hawaiian Islands). Best of all, you can generally fly to the Caribbean from the U.S. mainland within a few hours, so you can enjoy that exotic experience without flying halfway around the world. (And the airfare is a lot less expensive too!) Read more
In less than a month, “Harmonious” the new nighttime spectacular at EPCOT, will debut as one of the largest shows ever created for a Disney park and as the Disney Imagineers tell us, “unlike anything that’s been seen before.” Read more
It’s hard to not love the idea of an all-inclusive vacation. Arrive at your resort and everything you do from that point on is already included and you can just go about enjoying your vacation without giving a thought to paying for anything. Sounds pretty great right? Your accommodations, unlimited food, drinks, activities, and entertainment are all included in the booking price of the resort. Everything has been paid for in advance and you likely will have little to no need for your wallet throughout your trip.
But.
All *all-inclusive* resorts aren’t created equal, and they vary in the benefits they include in their vacation packages. And this is very important to know before you book because no one wants to arrive at their resort, expecting everything to be included, only to find out that a good bit of what you want to do – or eat – or drink -isn’t included and will come at an additional cost!

Those with young ones all know the tale behind Frozen and have probably heard the song Let it Go more than they care to admit. While we don’t have littles at home, we do have grandkids that can sing the songs from Frozen without skipping a beat. Because of this my husband was a bit reluctant to see “For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Let it Go can get almost as “stuck-in-your-head” as It’s a Small World, so it took a little coaxing to get him to go – and was he in for a surprise! Read more
