Author: LaurenR

I'm a Disney-obsessed Orlando local who enjoys visiting the World as much as possible. When I'm not working or going to the parks, I enjoy spending time with my fiance and our two dogs, going to punk rock concerts, reading, and Instagramming all my adventures (follow me @lauren_rausch).

My Disney Bucket List: Revisited

Posted on March 25, 2016April 12, 2022

At this time last year, I created my first Disney Bucket List and have been working hard to check items off so that I can add more on. While it was a challenge, I surprisingly checked off many more items than I initially thought…some intentionally and some not. Lets take a look at some of…

My First RunDisney Race: Mickey’s Jingle Jungle 5K

Posted on December 9, 2015October 3, 2018

One of my goals and Disney Bucket List items for 2015 was to participate in my first RunDisney 5K. When I set that goal back in January, most of the races for 2015 were already sold out, so my options were pretty limited. Then in the summer, the Wine and Dine Half Marathon weekend dates…

Celebrating Duffy the Disney Bear

Posted on September 14, 2015May 4, 2022

Some people love Duffy the Disney Bear and some not so much. Duffy may have just been a marketing ploy by Disney to sell more merchandise, but I, along with many, many other, love this adorable, cuddly Disney bear. Duffy the Disney Bear originated at the Tokyo Disney Resort in the early 2000s to keep…

Character Meet & Greets on the Disney Cruise Line

Posted on June 24, 2015February 6, 2022

I LOVE meeting Disney characters. Yes, I’m nearly 30 years old and no, I do not have any kids, but I’ve always been a big Disney character fan. Character interactions are such a fun way to incorporate memories into your Disney vacation so I take any opportunity I can get to pose with some of…

Dreaming of Dooney: A Disney Dooney & Bourke Purse Review

Posted on June 4, 2015May 4, 2022

I love Disney souvenirs just as much as the next person, but as an Orlando local who visits the parks often, my taste in souvenirs differs a little. Rather than collecting mugs, t-shirts, and ear hats to commemorate my trip, I particularly enjoy Disney souvenirs that I can incorporate into my everyday life, as well…

Star Wars Dine-In Galactic Breakfast Review

Posted on April 28, 2015October 10, 2018

What’s better than Star Wars, breakfast, and being in an awesomely-themed restaurant? Not too much, in my opinion. If any these above mentioned things are something that you enjoy, then I highly recommend the Star Wars Dine-In Galactic Breakfast at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This is a character breakfast offered…

Feeling Mighty Dapper: Everything You Need to Know About Dapper Day

Posted on March 26, 2015March 25, 2015

As a longtime Walt Disney World Annual Passholder, one of my favorite times to visit the Magic Kingdom is for Dapper Day. For those of you not familiar with Dapper Day, it is an unofficial event held at the Disney parks where everyone celebrates the tradition of “stepping out in style.” Park guests participating in…

2015 Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival Preview

Posted on March 2, 2015May 4, 2022

Spring is one of my favorite times of the year to visit Epcot—this is in large part due to their annual Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival. In my opinion, this is when Epcot is the most gorgeous. Not only is the park filled with beautiful character topiaries, but we are greeted with warm (but…

My Disney Bucket List

Posted on February 17, 2015February 21, 2022

Every year, instead of coming up with resolutions or goals that I don’t intend to keep, I like planning to try at least one new experience. While I have a general “bucket list” of places to see and things I want to experience, as a die-hard Disney fan, I wanted to take my bucket list…

California Grill Review

Posted on January 22, 2015May 5, 2022

Last month, my boyfriend and I celebrated our 5-year anniversary and to celebrate the occasion, he surprised me with a dinner at the California Grill. Neither one of us had been to the California Grill before, but it was one I had wanted to try for quite some time. Due to the costly menu, we…

All I Want For Christmas Is…

Posted on January 5, 2015May 5, 2022

Happy Holidays MFL readers! I hope that everyone had a great Christmas, Chanukah, or whatever holiday you and your family celebrates. I must have been good this year, because Santa (and my family) were very generous in the Disney gift department this year. My big gifts this year were a combo anniversary/Christmas gift from my…

Planning for a Disney Cruise Line Vacation

Posted on December 23, 2014February 6, 2022

I’m not a super spontaneous person. When it’s time to plan a vacation, I like to get all the details ironed out as much as I can beforehand. Not only does this keep me on track, but planning a Disney trip helps keep the excitement going, even if you still have six months to go…
