Now is the scene in the trip report, were this a movie, where the pages would start to fall off the calendar, and the seasons would change in a series of frames dissolved through the frame. You wouldn’t have many calendar pages fall or much of a season change, though, as we were home for
Nothing is quite as special as closing time in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. Although Walt never walked this sidewalk, the place takes on a new life at night, at a time when you can really feel “close” to the history of the park and its founder’s legacy.
One of my favorite things to collect is Disney-produced books that you would find for sale exclusively in the theme parks. I find them to be the perfect thing to lounge around and read outside on a lazy Saturday, something to peruse on the plane, or even something to set on the coffee table. Looking
Our Christmas Walt Disney World trip report features tons of photos, including pictures of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, Candlelight Processional, the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights, and Mickey’s Jingle Jungle Parade. We also cover some special events, like D23’s Magic and Merriment (which included a tour of the Cinderella Castle Suite) and WDW
On this trip, we started out at Disneyland before heading to Walt Disney World shortly thereafter to complete our first “Coast-to-Coast Disney Trip.” Disneyland highlights include dining at the exclusive Club 33 and Napa Rose in addition to plenty of other fun. We had some nighttime blue skies (as you can see in the photo
The next day was the day of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. We had told Nick the night before that we’d decide that morning whether we were going to Animal Kingdom that morning since the weather was predicted to be bad. Well, the weather was bad, so rather than waste a day of our tickets

Chapter 4: EPCOT Center’s Food & Wine & Beer & Whiskey Festival: That morning, we had some slight setbacks that had me concerned that we wouldn’t get to EPCOT by 8 a.m. For the start of morning extra magic hours. When we left our room at 7:25, I thought we had no shot. By complete

For today’s post, I am going to break several trip reporting customs, including the misconception
This is Part 3 of 3 in our Walt Disney World Honeymoon trip report. To view Parts 1 and 2, please visit our Walt Disney World “Disneymoon” trip report index page. The next morning we were up bright and early to get checked out and checked into Old Key West before our 11:30 a.m. ADRs
The next day was another Magic Kingdom day. Since we only had an hour and a half before lunch reservations, we decided to do our Monorail resort tour first, so my parents could see the decorations at the Grand Floridian (we had already been to the Polynesian, which wasn’t exactly loaded with decorations–what happened to
