Cast Member’s Corner: Let The Magical Memories Begin
I’m getting ready to go down to Disney in a little less than two weeks. I’m always excited to go down to Disney, my second home, but this time it will be a little different. I’m especially excited to be going down this time because I will be taking my boyfriend down with me, who hasn’t been down to Disney since he was young and doesn’t seem to remember much of it beyond Space Mountain.

Tips for Creating Your Own Disney Itinerary
I don’t think I need to stress the importance of thoroughly planning your Walt Disney World Vacation. I mean after all, you are here reading this so that tells me you see the benefit to a bit of Disney “research.” So many people tell me that planning a trip to Disney takes more time and thought than a trip to Europe. It is true! If you want to get the most for your time and your money, I HIGHLY recommend creating a daily itinerary. This holds true even more if you are traveling during the following “busy” Disney travel periods; summer, winter holidays, spring break and Easter.
While I know it is a good idea to create an itinerary I also know that many people sit down to create one but just do not know where on earth to begin. Here are some tips to help you get started: Read more
