    Disneyland Paris v. WDW

    I'm about two weeks overdue with this, and I fear if I don't at least start it now, it'll never happen, so here goes. I'll start with general impressions of DLRP, then compare/contrast with WDW for those familiar with WDW who might be considering a visit... My wife and I traveled to Disneyland...

    "One More Disney Day" Trip Report Photos

    Here are some photos from our "One More Disney Day" trip. I know I'm a bit late (a couple months!) with this trip report, but after our trip I started focusing on an eBook and other things, so I didn't have time to get a trip report done immediately. I'll spare you my commentary (you can...

    "Quality is the Best Business Plan" - Tokyo Disney's Annual Report

    Here's a line from the report that resonated with me: Perhaps Walt Disney World could take a page from the OLC playbook and do more for individual park anniversaries--such as Epcot's 30th. You can read the full report here...

    Bistro de Paris - Epcot's Best Restaurant?

    There's only a question mark there because we haven't eaten at every single restaurant at Epcot yet. That said, we recently ate at Bistro de Paris for the first time, and were floored by the exceptional cuisine. It easily surpassed Le Cellier, Via Napoli, Coral Reef, Biergarten, Chefs de...

    Cupcakes: Most Nutritious Way to Start Any Day...? - February 2012 WDW Trip Report

    Realized I haven't posted reports from our recent trips over here, so I thought I'd share some photo-highlights from this ongoing trip report. We visited WDW in February 2012 in honor of…uhh…Valentine’s Day...and we had a blast. We laughed, we cried (when we thought we were going to get...

    Disney Expanding in India... Parks Not on the Market?

    While the article is obviously not WDW news, per se, with all of the talk this summer about WDW being on the market, I think this is probably relevant here. http://disneyandmore.blogspot.com/2012/02/disney-strengthen-its-position-in-india.html I wonder if this is actually what those...

    The Brickers' F'n October 2011 Trip Report (Food & Wine and Fortieth Anniversary)

    This report is going to be a little different. Rather than my normal, incredibly verbose style, I'm going to post a CliffNotes version, of sorts, of the trip report here. I will, as always, post the full report on my personal website. However, it's simply too much work to copy it all...

    First Time Buyers Guide to DVC

    I published this about a week ago on my website, solicited feedback from some folks I would consider to be "experts" and revised accordingly. I think I now have it at a point that it should be really helpful, and a pretty fair assessment. Hope it helps you...

    Free Dining (and the Disney Dining Plan, Generally) Not the Best Deal?

    I know people get really excited about the "Free" Dining promotions, but I've done a lot of number-crunching, and it isn't always the best deal. I think people tend to forget that it's not really free (thus the quotation marks above), since you have to pay rack rate on a room that you could...

    Walt Disney World Park Exclusive Books

    Like many of you, I collect various Disney "stuff." One of my favorite things to collect is the books that have been released over the years at Walt Disney World (and Disneyland). These all go out of print after a year or so, and some have become quite rare (fetching $500+ !). Others are pretty...

    "Unique" Items to Pack for Disney Trips!

    What are some unique (so no toothpaste, underpants, etc.) items you pack to take to Disney? You know, the type of things that other people might not think of, but you find really helpful. Some of the things we pack include: -Yankee Candle (to give our trip a "scent") -Starbucks VIA...

    Epcot Guide to Drinking Around the World!

    Inspired by the recent legendary "Alcohol is Bad" thread, I decided to write my guide to Drinking Around the World in Epcot. I have some tips in here that I think are pretty good (the importance of starting in Mexico, certain drinks to avoid, when to hit Table Service restaurants instead of...
