My friend, Susan, and I are really looking forward to our girlfriend trip to Walt Disney World this September. One of the things we are exceedingly excited about is seeing the Magic Kingdom all decked out in Halloween decorations. We have never been during Halloween but I can tell you from past experience that the Christmas decorations are outstanding to say the least. Read more

Thrifty Thursday: Voyage of the Little Mermaid
One of my favorite attractions at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is The Voyage of the Little Mermaid. We used to enjoy this show as a family but now my macho big boys have outgrown it for more thrills. So, it has evolved into one of the special mother-daughter activities that Kristen and I share at the parks. This indoor show is Disney at its best!
This 17-minute show is presented every 20 minutes beginning at 9:45am. Located in Animation Courtyard, which is typically a high-traffic area, the crowds start to develop after the first or second showing. So, try to see the show before lunch as the crowds get bigger as the day goes on. VOLM does have Fast Pass service, but you will notice that, unlike most FP attractions that have 1-hour windows, the Voyage of the Little Mermaid has a 10 minute return window. Be sure to look at your FP ticket closely so you will not miss your return time. Read more
