As many times as I have visited Walt Disney World, I will never cease to be amazed at how you can easily enter a new world….or part of the world…..simply by visiting new sections of a theme park, or a resort hotel. I think the hotels especially are fabulous ways to pretty much forget you’re in Florida. Take Coronado Springs Resort for example. Are you *sure* you’re not actually in the Southwestern United States? Read more
I am a big fan of taking time to visit the Disney resorts. They are fascinating and fun to check out, with many having activities – to say nothing of great food – that are available to anyone, not just the resort Guests. Two of the best resorts to explore are Animal Kingdom Lodge and it’s sister resort, Kidani Village. Both are LOVELY, filled with lots of beautiful African art and design elements. They both have fabulous restaurants too! But the highlight of course, are the animals. You can observe them from many locations around the resorts, and taking the time to wander around the peaceful paths that surround the hotel, will give you a chance to learn a few things too. Fun AND learning. What a great combination! Read more
No matter how many time I try to explain to people who have not visited Walt Disney World – they still think of it as an amusement park! WDW is so much more than rides: it is shows, entertainment, shops, ambiance, fun, magic and a trip from reality! You don’t have to just ride from hotel to park and then back again. Try spending 1 day doing things outside of your hotel or park to see what all Disney has to offer! Read more
