I have to admit, when I go to Disney for a vacation, the last thing on my list to eat is a sandwich. Heck, I can eat one of those anytime. But the Earl of Sandwich restaurant in Downtown Disney does not serve ordinary sandwiches; oh, no. In fact, as a sandwich connoisseur, I was…

Don’t Forget the Kitchen Sink!
At dinner this evening, in between excited exclamations of whom was going to be tall enough to ride which rides come June, we decided that we couldn’t forget the Kitchen Sink on this trip. No, not an actual kitchen sink. Considering we travel with four children I sometimes feel like all we left at home…
Via Napoli
By Sarah DeMare In November, I had the pleasure of dining at Via Napoli, the new pizzeria in the Italy pavilion at Epcot. This was a fantastic dinner, and if you are short on time, you can skip the details and just go ahead and make an ADR for your next trip, you won’t be…
Let the Memories Begin Surprise – Part I
It started with a simple e-mail from a friend. Before Disney had even announced their new “Let the Memories Begin” promotion, I was planning a surprise trip to Disney for myself and my two girls with my husband’s blessing for New Year’s weekend. That was back in April and now here we are, less than…
The Elusive Pin Code
The other day I opened my e-mail and low and behold, I had the ever elusive Disney Pin Code offer! I am sure most of you have at least read about the Pin Codes that are randomly sent to a supposed select group of people. But if you have never heard of the Pin Code…
Growing Up with Disney
By Erica Colmenares As a nuclear family, we came relatively late to the Disney vacation game. Our son, Max, was seven before he first set foot on Disney property. But since then, he’s made up for lost time, and has grown up with Disney. He’s experienced the birth of attractions, and experienced offerings that are…
Why Pop is Tops: My Reasons for Choosing Pop Century
I’ve stayed in a couple of Disney and a couple off-site resorts over the years and we keep coming back to Pop Century. Today I’m going to explain our love affair with this value resort to you. Price It is a value resort. I don’t spend a great deal of time at my resort so…
Mickey shaped food items just taste better!
As we enter the month and season where all we’ll be doing is eating, eating and doing more eating, I began reflecting that everyone loves Mickey and everyone loves eating during a Disney destination vacation. Combine Mickey with the Disney dining experience and you have a winning combination of food and fun! Whether a subtle…
“This Day Shall Live on in Infamy”
Pearl Harbor was one place my husband and I both wanted to visit while on Oahu. Contrary to my typical nature of planning things well in advance, having this trip following a Grand Gathering to Disney World and the fact that it was rather last minute left me little time for planning. So I basically…
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…
Waikiki for a beach vacation, probably not!
Waikiki is most likely one of the best known beach areas in the world. It is a great urban area, with lots of dining and shopping within walking distance of the many hotels and resorts, several of the resorts are right on the beach. The biggest disappointment for me was the beach itself. It was…
Sogni Dolci at Palo on The Disney Cruise Line
On the Disney Cruise Line, Palo is the specialty upscale restaurant with a Northern Italian influence in an elegant, world-class adult only setting. Fine dining at its best on the high seas, I had to “wonder” (no pun intended) about my decorum on my most recent cruise when it was my desire to order not…
