My household is alive with excitement because with winter (seemingly) coming to an end, we have a lot to look forward to in the upcoming warm weather months. With our next Walt Disney World vacation just weeks away, I am busy planning everything down to the last detail. Dining reservations have been made and I feel confident about them. FastPass+ selections have been made but I will probably change them a half dozen times. The Disney savings jar is filling up. The trip is paid off. The flight has been booked. We started with a countdown of more than 200 days and now we’re down to single digit weeks! Now… we wait. Read more

So you made it to Walt Disney World. With your kids. Maybe you’d been before you had kids and rode all the rides and watched every show to your heart’s content. Maybe you’ve never been before and did not realize that attractions for humans over three and a half feet tall even existed. But now you’re here and you’re looking at the guide map.

You look at the other grown-up or grown-ups with you and think to yourself, “it sure would be fun to try those thrill rides.” You feel a little guilty, but you shouldn’t. The other adult(s) might be thinking the same thing.  But wouldn’t taking time out of your day to ride those rides be selfish? Aren’t you here for the kids?  Read more

I recently came across an interesting image (but not the exact one above) on Facebook of an admission ticket to Disney World from the 1980s (when WDW consisted only of EPCOT and Magic Kingdom).  The back said “Children under 7 years must be accompanied by an adult.”  Let me get this straight…in 1987, before cell phones were a thing, you could drop your little one off, say “see ya!” and allow them to visit and use transportation between the two parks. Whoa, how times have changed! Read more

I conducted a poll on Facebook, asking seasoned Disney travelers if they leave the parks mid-day to rest.  I posed follow up questions about the age of the people in their party and length of stay. I presumed these details would have a great impact on responses, but overall the answers remained evenly split. Read more
