Animal Kingdom used to not have good food places. It’s changed and I was told to eat at Tiffins. Unfortunately, Tiffins is not cheap. Let’s put it this way, it costs 2 dining credits to eat there. I found out that there was a Lion King package that […]
It’s our 6th and final day at Disney World, and our final theme park is the Animal Kingdom. It’s probably my least favorite of the 4 parks, but it’s also been 6 years since I was last here. We had a morning FastPass for the Kilimanjaro Safari so […]
We had over 20 snack points to use, and we were already on day 5 of our trip. We decided to use up some points at the Festival of the Arts food kiosks. A snack is not limited to a cookie or soft drinks . If you see […]
Second day at Epcot, and this time we’re exploring the front part of the park. We got a FastPass for The Seas with Nemo and Friends. It’s a cute, slow moving ride that educates us about the ocean and sea life. At the end of the ride, guests […]
Walt Disney World has Magical Hours, where guests staying on property can have access to specific parts either before park opening, or after it closes. Tonight, Epcot was selected to be opened 2 hours later from 9:00-11:00 pm. We went back to the hotel to rest, and then […]
After our lunch at Biergarten, we slowly walked around the World Showcase and explored the different countries. Scattered around Epcot were works of arts, celebrating the Festival of the Arts that was being held until February 24. There were recreations of famous paintings in which guests could “be […]
Epcot is the biggest of the 4 Disney World theme parks. it’s so large, they have different openings times for the 2 sections. The front part is Future World, which has the iconic Spaceship Earth sphere, and is currently partially under construction. This front section is more educational, […]
It was a long day for Stephen, and we still had the fireworks show at 8:00 pm. After visiting the Enchanted Tiki Room, we decided to stake out a spot on Main Street and relax until the fireworks show. I remembered that there was a special Photopass Magic […]
Did you know you can get a hair cut at the Magic Kingdom? The barbershop is located near the entrance of the park, next to the fire station. Tucked away in the corner, you’ll see the barber shop pole, and for $19 you can get a haircut. There’s […]
Following our lunch at Be Our Guest, we went to check out Tomorrowland. Stephen has never been on Carousel of Progress, so we went back in time with this classic, nostalgic show, followed by another classic attraction, Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover, (or as Disney fans call it: the […]
It’s day 3, and we’re going to the Magic Kingdom. Unlike our easy day at Hollywood Studios, the Magic Kingdom was going to be longer and a lot more walking. We still didn’t get up early, and arrived at the park around 10:00 am. Our first FastPass was […]
We left Hollywood Studios early and it was also Super Bowl Sunday. I was hoping Disney Springs wouldn’t be crowded, and that people were watching the game at their hotel or at one of the sports bars. We left our hotel about 8:00 and took the water shuttle […]
Follow our lunch, we went on the Star Tours attraction, saw the Indiana Jones stunt show and walked around until our FastPass for the Alien Swirling Saucers was ready. Stephen doesn’t like going on rides that have drops or is too fast, so our choices at Hollywood Studios […]
Following our visit to Batuu (ie Galaxy’s Edge), we made our way to have lunch at the 50’s Prime Time Café, one of my favorite restaurants at WDW. The theme is a 1950s style kitchen and you’re waited on by your “cousin” while Mom cooks up popular dishes […]
It’s our first full day at WDW, and we’re going to Hollywood Studios (formerly MGM Studios). Since we are still on West Coast time, we didn’t get up until 9:00 (which for us is 6:00 am), and we missed out on getting boarding passes for the Rise of […]
For our first night, I knew I had to make a late dinner reservation, so I chose Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ restaurant located at the Disney Springs, which is WDW’s Downtown Disney area. From our resort, we could take water shuttles to Disney Springs. They ran every 15-20 […]
For my 50th birthday, I wanted to celebrate it at Walt Disney World. My birthday is actually in March, but it’s also Spring Break in Florida… meaning it’s even more crowded than normal. I found a break in the Ducks hockey schedule in February, and the crowds were […]
