There’s nothing like Halloween at Disney World. I love Halloween no matter where I am, but there’s something extra special about this time of year in the Most Magical Place on Earth. If you’ve been with me for a while, you know it’s so special to me I spent my anniversary (the day before Halloween) in Disney a couple of years ago. There are many things about autumn in the parks that are indescribably wonderful, but one that never fails to give me chills is the special Halloween-themed fireworks at the Magic Kingdom. Read more

With all the hullabaloo about Toy Story Land happening, everyone is hoping to get chosen and scooped up by The Claw, or fulfilling childhood dreams of riding a Slinky Dog along an Erector Set roller coaster. No? Only me? Well, the point is, all the attention is going to the new kids on the block, and many seem to be forgetting about our old friend, the Toy Story attraction that started it all in Hollywood Studios — it is very storyline appropriate, to be honest. We got a couple of new toys, and left our old one behind.

Not me. Not this girl, whose daughter now plays with 30-year-old Barbies in addition to her own. Nobody left behind. That’s why today we’re heading to the Toy Story OG — Toy Story Midway Mania. Read more

Exploring Disney: Getting Classic at the Circus

There are a few things that immediately come to mind when thinking about Classic Disney. Cinderella and her missing glass slipper. Peter Pan and Tinker Bell soaring off to Neverland. Jiminy Cricket. And, of course, Mickey Mouse.

For me, and many others, one that always makes me smile is Dumbo. Now, I’m not going to lie and tell you I love the movie. I don’t. It makes me cry. But I have a soft spot for Dumbo himself, and my little one has a love for both elephants in general, and this particular big-eared fellow. Read more
