Walt Disney World Versus Disneyland: Length of Stay

Posted on April 25, 2013April 12, 2022

Determining the optimal length of stay at either resort is certainly a difficult concept.  Besides looking at the vacation time available, I also try to look at what we want to accomplish during that stay.  How many night shows do we want to see?  How many parks do we plan on going to?  Do we…

Napa Rose Lounge

Posted on April 24, 2013May 5, 2022

Located in the Grand Californian Hotel in Disneyland California is the premier dining destination: Napa Rose.  A meal at Napa Rose is an extraordinary experience to say the least, but can also be quite an expensive endeavor. Besides the financial set back, some folks might not want to squander their time in the parks for…

Seaside Sunday: Negotiating in the Caribbean

Posted on April 21, 2013

Each week we will take a look at some fun, interesting, or new aspect of cruising the high seas! When we get ready for our trips, making purchases is rather straightforward. I need flip-flops, I go to the store, find what I want, and (as long as it’s acceptable) I pay the price marked on…

Happy Anniversary to Disney’s Animal Kingdom!

Posted on April 17, 2013May 4, 2022

By Debbie Boehm April 22nd marks 15 years since Disney’s Animal Kingdom opened its gates for the first time.  As a Cast Member of The Disney Store in the local mall, I have many memories of that time and the excitement building up to this momentous occasion.  Earth Day was the perfect day for the…

Walt Disney World Versus Disneyland: Disney-Owned Resorts

Posted on April 12, 2013May 5, 2022

Today, I’m continuing my comparison of Walt Disney World and Disneyland by taking a look at the Disney-owned resorts.  First of all, I will clarify that the lodging at Walt Disney World is termed “resort”; however, the lodging at Disneyland is termed “hotel”. Let’s start with Walt Disney World, shall we?  With 24 Disney-owned resorts…

Yak and Yeti

Posted on April 11, 2013May 5, 2022

  Walking around Animal Kingdom can make you pretty hungry sometimes! All of those trails and safaris can make you really want a bite to eat. Counter service can be pretty helpful but sometimes you need a sit down meal to really get your energy up for another trek through the park. My favorite place…

Posted on April 7, 2013May 5, 2022

Every week we will take a look at some fun, interesting, or new aspect of cruising the high seas! As I write this, we are two weeks out from our next cruise. As you might imagine, clothes are being purchased, plans finalized, documents gathered. This is not the point where we anticipate something going wrong….
