This year we had the opportunity to visit Mickey’s Halloween Party at Disneyland. We have attended it in the past when it has been held at Disney’s California Adventure but, this year, it was held at Disneyland. Moving it to Disneyland Park allowed Disney to sell double the number of tickets that they have in…

Star Treatment
Earlier this year, Chris and I had the chance to take a trip with my Dad and my brother. We rarely have a chance to get my Dad to Disney, and he isn’t the biggest fan of it. Actually, he says he isn’t when he’s not there, but when you get him to Disney, he’s…
A little bit of Pixie Dust…
A little bit of Pixie Dust goes a long way and truly is magical. My daughter has lost a tooth during our last two trips to Disney World and while there is no way to plan this, it turned into a magical moment thanks to her loving aunt (my sister) and a little bit of…
Leaving Property
By Carol Garcia When staying at Walt Disney World, it’s quite easy to stay on-property for an entire trip and live in the “Disney bubble.” Unlike Disneyland, which is surrounded by reality on all sides, Disney World is just apart from the real world enough to make it easily avoided on a vacation. But central…
Baby’s First Haircut
When we were planning our first trip to Disney World with our kids my second job became researching all the little things that would make the memories extra special. One of those little things that I found was information about the baby’s first haircut at the Magic Kingdom. At that time our trip was more…

TheMouseForLess Blog
By Erica Colmenares Blogging is where it’s at these days. Even my son has a blog (topic: video games; surprised?). My preference runs more towards Disney blogs (again, surprised?). I especially enjoy the guest blogs from members at TheMouseForLess.com. These blog entries are not the direct scoop from the Mouse himself. Rather, they are what…
Dinner for 12, please…
When you hear “Grand Gathering” what comes to mind? I know that Disney wants you to have a fairy tale image of happiness and laughing and everyone getting along. Young and old and in between, everyone is thrilled to be together, sharing in the magic of the “happiest place on Earth!” (Right. Have you ever…
The Great Movies of the Great Movie Ride!
I’m moving in. ; ) I think we all want look for ways to carry the magic of our Disney trips over into our every day lives at home, or to find a way to get ourselves excited for an upcoming trip. I like to research and learn more about the history of Disney as…
Pixie Dust Between Trips – 09/23/2010
By Kristi Letsinger I often find myself longing for the sights and sounds of Disney. It doesn’t seem to matter if we have just returned from a trip or are getting ready to leave for one, there are days that I just need some instant “magic,” if only for a little while. My children seem…
The Best Views for Wishes and Illuminations May Not Be Where You Think!
For many visitors, the “goodnight kiss” that culminates after a long day of Walt Disney Resort theme park touring is the nightly fireworks extravaganza held in the parks on most evenings. For most guests who will be watching Wishes in the Magic Kingdom this means securing a spot curbside in the hub or along Main Street well in advance. …
One for the Money. . . Two for the show. . . .
If you remember repeating this as a child, you’ll also remember that it finished “Three to get ready, and Four to go”. Shortly, my hubby and I are going to Walt Disney World with our daughter Pam, and our daughter Mary and her family. Here’s how I’ve applied this little ditty to our upcoming trip….
