Universal Orlando Resort knows how to bring on the thrills, and the resort’s two parks have some of our favorite thrill rides anywhere. Many of Universal’s rides are also very well-themed and immersive so that you feel like you’re a part of the story. Here are some of my favorites if you’re looking for thrills in the parks. Read more
Disney Quick Service Dining is More Than Chicken Nuggets
Walt Disney World has so many quick service locations, that it would take forever to actually name them all. And the variety of food available ranges from chicken nuggets to lamb shawarma in Morocco. (But don’t worry, even the most exotic quick service locations have nuggets and hamburgers for the youngest members of your party.)
Many people think that the food at Walt Disney World is similar to most amusement parks – and nothing could be further from the truth! While, yes, you can find hot dogs, hamburgers, nuggets, fries and your normal American cuisine, you can also find food from all over the world – you just have to decide on what you want! Below are just a few favorites. Read more
Exploring Disney: Casey’s Corner

Exploring Disney: Waiting In Line Is Not The End of the World
If you spend any time reading about, talking about, or in Disney World, there is one thing you are absolutely guaranteed to hear — complaints about waiting in line. It’s kind of amazing, in its own way. I, for one, never cease to be amazed when I hear someone say they will never wait more than twenty minutes for a ride. That seems like a lot of missed rides and frustrated walking around the Parks to me. Sure. I’ll level with you. No one enjoys standing in the Florida sun for hours waiting for a ride. But there’s also no reason to automatically cross an experience off your list because the wait time is creeping up, especially if you have to go during a busier time of the year when the chances of low waits are next to nothing. Instead, learn to make the most of your wait and turn it into part of your Park experience! Read more
