By Kristi Letsinger If you haven’t tried the Port Orleans French Quarter resort at Walt Disney World, you should. This resort is peaceful, beautifully landscaped, and very subtly Disney. Disney has such an awesome attention to detail and it shows at the French Quarter. I recently had the opportunity to stay with my family at…

Traveling Through Disney with Autism
I just felt that this picture was fitting when talking about Disney and Autism. As most of us know, Disneyland and Walt Disney World are bright, beautiful, and sometimes overstimulating. Yes, I just said “sometimes overstimulating”, and I’m sure most of the parents with children on the Autism Spectrum will know exactly what I mean. …

By Rikki Niblett Random useless commentary by Chris Johnson Every year in May/June Walt Disney World holds Star Wars Weekends, celebrating all that is included in the Star Wars Universe.

Tales From a Disneyland First-timer
What can I tell you about Disneyland that you don’t already know, or haven’t already heard? Even as a first time visitor with my hubby last month, I knew that it would be a good Disney time. I knew the magic would be there, and I had read about the rides and attractions that we…
Souvenirs or Stuff?
I hate to admit it, but I save a LOT of stuff from my visits to the Walt Disney World Resort. I have maps, brochures, napkins, pins, soap, shampoos, body lotion…I mean, if it has the WDW logo on it, for some reason, I find the need to save it. These things have made for…
Why I Love The Epcot Flower and Garden Festival

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
Back in 2008, my family and I stayed at POP Century for our trip. We were in the 70’s complex, right on the lake, and we could see the unfinished side of the resort. It was one of those moments (again) where I wish there was a giant tent or wall around the whole thing…
A Taste of Africa
By: Lindsey Tullier My husband and I have traveled to the World several times with our now 6- and 4-year-old boys. When it comes time to make Advanced Dining Reservations (ADRs), I choose restaurants based on their ability to entertain and intrigue my children (e.g. Crystal Palace, Biergarten and Sci-Fi Dine-In). When my husband’s recent…
Extreme Makeover – Disney Style!

Basically, it’s like a mini extreme makeover on your home, Disney style. In this premiere episode, a family of seven gets a backyard makeover and the three bedrooms that the…
App Review: Disneyland Explorer
There are few things that I like more than a cool app for my iPad 2…except for one thing: a cool DISNEY app for my iPad. So, when I got wind of the new Disneyland Explorer app by way of Twitter, I had to see and try it for myself! Firstly, the Disneyland Explorer app…
Walt Disney World- My most magical place and my place to learn life
Written by Contributor TreyB There is no need for me even to say it. However, I will say it anyway. We all know we hear it, which is why I will say, “Disney World again?!” How many times do we listen to it? Well, each time we make those ADR’s we know at least one…
