    So You Can't Stand The Small World Song, Eh?

    Ahh, It's a Small World. The ride evokes such love, and hate. LOL! The song, that wonderful ditty that burrows into your brain and takes over. Personally, I love the ride and have no problem with the song. I love the message and the song is the thread that connects all the nationalities of...

    I Might Become A Cast Member!

    Whelp, I did it! I applied to work in the parks as a Security Cast Member yesterday. This will sound silly, but after working in multiple "careers" during my lifetime (I'm 62), and being semi-retired now, I consider this my "dream job." As a lifelong Disney fan (Like many of you, I grew up...

    Solo Disney Day

    So, I did a thing. Yesterday I had to deliver my GF to the airport which is about an hour's drive from where I live (Daytona). I'm a passholder this year and really want to make it pay for itself so I made a park reservation at EPCOT, charged up my magic band and headed straight there from the...

    Well, I broke down and (probably unwisely) splurged big-time on a Disney cruise. I have cruised other lines (Holland America back in 2000, Royal and Norwegian more recently). I know there are other, even more expensive cruise lines. The Fantasy currently cruises the Eastern Caribbean loop...

    Got my Incredipasses, eventually...

    After waiting in a virtual queue for something like six hours (no, I didn't just sit in front of the PC all that time, LOL!), I finally got my APs bought. I went for the top tier because I really don't want to worry about blackout dates. Now that I'm an hour's drive from Orlando, I know I'll...

    Pirate Night on Disney Fantasy

    Hello Disney Friends. I'm taking my first Disney cruise at the end of May and Pirate Night looks like a fun event. I will be with my GF and my two adult children and their SOs. I haven't found anything at all about the event on the DCL website, but the app talks generally about it, saying (I...

    California Transplant

    Hi All, After being a resident of California since 1976 and developing an intimate familiarity with the California Disney parks, I recently moved to Florida. I have visited the WDW parks a few times and look forward to achieving a similar familiarity with them. I'm a lifelong Disney fan and...
