With the New Year rung in everyone is making New Year’s resolutions. Some people looking for new routines, new heath benefits, setting new goals, looking for a new number on the scale, or a newer you. Most New Year’s resolutions make it a month or two, unless you are very determined, unlike me, and were one of the few who succeeded in your New Years resolution. Why not make a Disney New Year’s resolution this year? This resolution may actually stick this time around and be a fun one to accomplish. This year why not spice up your trip to Disney with doing something new? Try one of Disney’s many tours or one of the excursions at their Vero Beach or Hilton Head Resorts. Read more

A Disney Day in Chicago
For most people, the ideals of the holiday season center on spending time with friends and family.

Two such places are Disney’s Hilton Head Resort in Hilton Head, South Carolina and Disney’s Vero Beach Resort in Vero Beach, Florida. Read more
A Trip to the Disney Museum..In Indiana?
Can you believe summer is nearly over? Where did it go? One end of summer tradition we have is to go to the Indiana State Fair which it seems that I can somehow connect to Disney.

This was a unique exhibit dedicated to the history and stories of animation and the artists; including Disney, Hanna-Barbera, Fox, etc. Read more
