I normally use my Thursday posts to write about free things to do at Disney, but I also think that a good thrifty deal is getting a great experience for the money. During our trip to Walt Disney World last year, my hubby and I decided to splurge and finally take the Keys to the Kingdom Tour at the Magic Kingdom. We really enjoyed it and we found it to be well worth the time and the money. This particular tour takes you behind the scenes at the Magic Kingdom, including the famous utilidors – the first level of the Magic Kingdom, long thought to be a tunnel. It was a great experience and I wanted to share some information with you in case you have been thinking about taking a tour as well. Read more
What to Do at Disney World
Thrifty Thursday: The Magnificent Gingerbread House at the Grand Floridian
During the holiday season, it is easy to find loads of FREE things to do at the Walt Disney World Resort. No one decorates on the level of Disney anywhere else and you are totally immersed in the spirit of holiday cheer. One prime example of decorating in Disney style is the Gingerbread House at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort.
This is a must-see for my family during every trip. We have had our Christmas cards taken in front of this magnificent house and we, in fact, take a family picture in front of it during every visit. The aroma is awesome; even for someone who doesn’t like the taste of gingerbread the scent screams holiday magic. It is a beautiful, and completely edible, masterpiece. Read more
