Disney Ruined Cruising For Me – There’s No Going Back Now

By //  by Candace Sampson 3 Comments

This is the story of how Disney ruined cruising for me. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed several cruises on various cruise lines and I thought they were quite good. After enjoying four days on the Disney Dream however, I realize I’ve been living a lie. Way to go Disney, now what am I supposed to do?  How will I live without the cake of the day delivered to my room free of charge? What other cruise line will whisk me away to a private island? Who else will welcome me and my family onboard …

Summer holidays come and go in the blink of an eye, Fridays are the best; Mondays are not, and you'll be waiting in some long lines for rides and attractions during your Walt Disney World vacation—all of these things are facts. I can't help you with the summer holidays and Monday/Friday facts, but I can offer some reassurance when it comes to those lineups at Disney. If you can't score a FastPass for certain attractions, know that there are some queues that go above and beyond to make …

10 Ways to Beat the Heat at Walt Disney World

By //  by Gwen Leron Leave a Comment

Each time I tell someone we always plan our Walt Disney World trips to take place during the month of August, I'm always asked about the heat. Yes, it's HOT in Florida in August...but the timing just works well for us for several reasons. The kids are out of school, it's a fun last hurrah before September rolls around, and there are often discounts available at this time. Not to mention, we really don't mind the heat. Over the years, I've managed to find the best ways for us beat the heat at …

Disney MagicBand 101: Everything You Need to Know Before Your Vacation

Disney MagicBand 101: Everything You Need to Know Before Your Vacation

By //  by Gwen Leron 2 Comments

This past summer during our Walt Disney World Resort vacation, we were introduced to the wonderful world of MagicBands. We've been to Disney several times, but this last visit was the first time MagicBands were available to us. Having used the old "key to the world" cards in the past, I have to say my preference is the MagicBand. Good to Know: If your preference is to use the key to the world cards, they are still available, you just have to ask! So...what exactly are MagicBands? What …

Disney With Teens – A Whole New World

By //  by Candace Sampson 1 Comment

My youngest daughter has been to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida more times than she is old.  I am often asked when is the best time to bring a child and my response is always the same, there is no wrong time. Each age and stage has it's own special place at the Happiest Place on Earth. As a mother who has seen her children marvel at the wonder of Disney every year of their life, I state this as a fact. What I've loved most over the years is how every trip to Disney is …
