I used The Magic For Less Travel (TMFLT) for the first time in 2005. I enjoy planning my own vacations, and have to admit I was a bit skeptical about using any travel agency. I decided that I would give TMFLT an honest chance. I’m glad I did because I don’t think that I have…

Epcot Easter Egg Hunt
No matter how much planning and preparing goes into a Walt Disney World trip, sometimes something spontaneous still provides a lot of fun. Today, we happened to stumble upon an Epcot Easter Egg hunt, and this turned out to be a fun little addition to our tour of World Showcase. The Epcot Egg-stravagenza was held…
This Month in Disney Parks History – February
The month of February has brought the Walt Disney Company many Oscar nominations through the years, but for most of the Disney Parks it is a very, very quiet month. This month does bring us the opening of Disney’s California Adventure Park in 2001. It is a major expansion to the Disneyland resort, but underwent…
A Disney Cookbook Fit for a Princess, a Prince, or Yourself!
Since All Things Disney catch my eye, I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw a Disney Princess themed cookbook on display at the library! The book that drew me like a moth to a flame is called The Disney Princess Cookbook. The recipes are by Cynthia Littlefield and the photographs are by Joanne…
This Month in Disney Parks History – January
A New Year is upon us, and along with looking toward the future, we can also look back at what has come and gone during the month of January in Disney Parks History. January has had its fair share of ride/attraction closings, but it also brought us the openings of Mickey’s Toontown and the Downtown…
I’m Dreaming of a Disney Christmas
Although I AM dreaming of a Disney Christmas, I’ll be celebrating the holiday at home 1,000 miles away from Walt Disney World. That’s Ok, though! We can’t take ourselves to Walt Disney World for the holidays, but we can bring a bit of Disney to our own homes to enjoy at Christmas time. There are so…
This Month in Disney Parks History – December
December brings us some exciting Park History moments, as well as the birth (in 1901) and sadly the death (in 1966) of Walt Disney. Walt’s brother Roy O. Disney also passed in December of 1971, just months after he dedicated Walt Disney World. December 2, 1984 – 20-year old Margarita Granados goes into labor while…
SwaggerTag Review and Giveaway
I received two free SwaggerTag luggage tags to review and share my experience. I was impressed with SwaggerTags! The style, sturdiness, security, and versatility for use is all good! In the past, we’ve used the free luggage tags that Walt Disney World sent us or inexpensive luggage tags we’ve bought at local stores. We have…
A Disney Thanksgiving!
I’ve never spent the Thanksgiving season at one of the Disney Parks, but I sure would like to! The Thanksgiving season would be an ideal time to visit Walt Disney World or Disneyland because you’d get the bonus of seeing all of the festive Christmas decorations as well as being able to enjoy a Disney…
This Month in Disney Parks History – November
November has brought several things to the Disney Parks, as well as been a time to say goodbye to some favorite attractions. November has a personal Disney Parks moment for me, my husband proposed to me on November 21st, 2009 at Disneyland! November is also Mickey’s birthday month!! On November 18, 1928 Steamboat Willie (Mickey’s…
The Scariest of Them All
As parents, it’s our job to keep the monsters out of our children’s lives. But, if you let your children watch Disney movies, for every hero or princess that is introduced, you have to also let the villains in as well. As an adult, I have to admit that I like some of the villains…
La Luna: The Story Project
I received this app free of charge, so I could try it out and share my thoughts with you. La Luna is the Pixar short film that accompanied the movie Brave at the theaters. You know, there are quite a few different Pixar shorts, but of all of them, I think my favorite is La…
