I stayed at the All-Star Sports for a week, April 9 - April 15. I have to tell you that my impressions were very high. The place was clean, room was comfortable (yes, small, but basically a standard room like in any motel), staff was incredible. Over and over the cast members went out of there...

W is for water

I only resort hopped a little on my last vacation. I took a boat from Polynesian to Grand Floridian. It also stopped at the dock in front of Magic Kingdom, where a launch was available to Wilderness Lodge. I also took a boat from Port Orleans Riverside to Disney Springs, and back, but that's not...

I really loved the Communicore (before they became Innoventions). They really were dynamic, interesting places, so full of life and energy.

That will be my retirement trip. With any luck, there may be one more trip before, but nothing is even remotely being planned yet.

Well, this is just depressing

I agree with you, but disagree on one part. I just returned from a week staying at the All Star Sports, and I have to say, there was definitely a Disney Bubble for me. True, it's not the exact same as it was years ago, and there are definitely things that I personally would have done...

The walk from Grand Floridian was very pleasant, and quite scenic. When I got around to the docks, it looked like Donald had been busy. I got my first close up glimpse of the Magic Kingdom of the trip, then took a launch to Wilderness Lodge, my other favorite resort I haven’t stayed at...

As I’m pretty sure I said earlier, one of my favorite parts of a trip to WDW is exploring the resorts. So I was excited to get the chance. I got off at the Contemporary Resort and got right on the Monorail and took it to my favorite resort that I’ve never stayed at: the Polynesian. From...

I've found those boats can be a Godsend!

I usually start with Canada for a very good reason: On my very first trip to Epcot when we got to World Showcase we had to pick either walking to the left or the right (there was no entrance near England at the time). For no particular reason, we went right, to Canada. Maybe because most of the...

I thought I had recognized him from tv, some shows about Walt Disney World and such.

S is for Space 220

By the time we finished up, Jennifer joined us. Her first order of business was to do some shopping and get a proper set of Mouse ears. Then it was off to the Indiana Jones stunt show. The show was good; the same as always. I’m kind of glad they got rid of that contrived bit about getting...

Being from California, we had the advantage of having our own near identical Galaxy’s Edge, so two of the biggest rides were not a priority for us. We decided to make our priority Micky and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. I have to admit to mixed feelings here. On the one hand, this is a totally...

By this time Jennifer was pretty pooped and needed to sleep late, so Mik and I went into early opening together and let her sleep late. Even though we took the bus in from our resort, we were greeted by the Sky Liner in all its glory at Disney Hollywood Studios. There’s something indescribably...

I already did that night.

Mik even had bought Pandora ears for which she got compliments for the rest of the trip. I have to say the photos don’t do this place justice at night. It was absolutely stunning. Unfortunately it just didn’t get too dark before closing time and our new dinner reservation at Rain Forest so we...

I LOVE this hotel. It is my favorite of all the Disney hotels I've stayed at. I didn't mind a bit of a walk, which at the end of a long day in the park was a nice "cool down" for me. If I remember correctly, there are several bus stops, but I would just walk to the bus stop by the main lobby...
