The Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 is an ultra wide angle lens that’s great for full frame photographers on a budget. “Full frame photographer on a budget” is sort of an oxymoron, but I think there are a lot of good reasons why full frame photographers might be budget-minded, at least with some lenses. In this review,
Huey, Dewey & Louie’s Good Time Cafe is a counter service restaurant in Toontown at Tokyo Disneyland serving sandwiches, pizza, and a few other sides with an outdoor seating area. This review features food photos, plus thoughts on the restaurant, and the ever-important topic of restaurant-specific packaging. In some Disney circles, “never eat in Tomorrowland”
Recently, we’ve been hearing from readers trying to plan summer Walt Disney World vacations, who are concerned about the published hours for Animal Kingdom. Currently, the park has closing times as early as 6 p.m. on nights Rivers of Light will run. Judging by emails we’ve received, social media, and random comments on totally unrelated
Construction for Star Wars Land is well underway at Disneyland, with the plot now almost totally cleared as of April 2016. We were in the park last Friday and as we were leaving the Mickey & Friends parking structure, I stopped in my tracks upon noticing the construction. I hadn’t intended upon doing another construction

The size of your hotel room might be an important factor in determining where to stay at Walt Disney World. In this post, we compare the square footage of every standard hotel room so you can decide which hotel is the right size for your vacation. We often hear that room size is important, but
While writing our “Top” 10 NEVER AGAIN! at Walt Disney World list, I stumbled upon our old Disney bucket list post, and thought it might be due for an update. I started to edit it, only to realize that so much had changed that we probably should just do Volume 2 of our Disney Bucket
Grand Central Air Terminal is a historic airfield in Glendale, California. Disney purchased and restored the airport to its original grandeur, and we toured Grand Central Air Terminal (GCAT) recently to see the completed project. The airport is now part of the Disney Grand Central Creative Campus, which includes Walt Disney Imagineering and Disney Interactive,
Tokyo Disneyland Electrical Parade Dreamlights is far and away my favorite night parade in any worldwide Disney Park. This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to readers of this blog, given that I’ve gushed about it repeatedly on the blog. It’s better than the newer Paint the Night parade and my sentimental favorite, SpectroMagic.
The dining landscape is changing at Disneyland, much as it has changed in Florida. If you read our 2016 WDW Dining Update, much of this will probably sound redundant. In California, prices have also increased (10-15% on average for counter service), while in many cases portion sizes and quality have decreased. While the price increases
