Behind the Scenes My family and I did the Adventure's by Disney Hollywood trip this summer (June). If you love Disney, I recommend it highly. Anyway, part of the adventure is a private tour of Disney Imagineering. The Adventure trip is the only way to get into the place and photography by...

Surprising a 12 year old! My daugher's birthday is June 13th, right after the end of the school year. We planned a Disney trip with our flight leaving the morning of the 13th, but our 11 year old had no clue what was going on. We had been to Disney several years before and she had loved the...

I had the opportunity to ride Space Mountain in Disneyland, Paris and it was unbelievable. Space Mountain, Disney World is a kiddie-ride compared to the one in Paris. Expedition Everest and the Rock and roller-coaster are the only things that compare. At some point they need to decide to just...

I've read through 10 pages of posts and apparently I am a "Disney Hater" due to my repulsion at the thought of this attraction. Here's the deal. I hate the tv show. I hate the idea that some nobody can be plucked off the street and transformed into a pop culture icon that sells millions of...

Hey, this is one more reason to skip Hollywood Studios and spend more time at Universal. I hate American Idol so I have no desire to see this attraction. What a waste.

It's so hard to give just one piece of advice, but here are some that I didn't see so far on the list. In the Magic Kingdom as you enter all the shops on the left side are interconnected. This means that if you enter at Casey's Corner you can make it all the way to the park exit without being...

January 19-27 We're staying at the Polynesian and then doing the Disney Cruise. Can't wait!

It has to be Stich, because I know if I'm seeing him I've lost my mind and gone on that stupid ride again.

I would guess that most devoted fans of DisneyWorld can trace it back to a vacation, probably when they were young, where they had an incredible time. We go back to Disney to recreate that feeling. For me, it's always walking toward that castle. I remember being with my parents when I was 8...

Best thing: My honeymoon, if you know what I mean, nudge, nudge, wink, wink. Worst thing: Having one too many Guiness at the Rose and Crown.

The Lion King, Tarzan, and Hunchback I read through several pages and didn't see this attraction listed. The Lion King attraction in Fantasy Land was really well done. Phillharmagic is very entertaining, but I remember taking my two year old to see the Lion King and the combination of...

My family and I were in Disney for a week in June and went into the Hall of Presidents and the American Experience. In both instances the attractions were 1/2 - 3/4 full AND there was applause from the audience both times. There was even applause when George Bush was introduced. These types...

I don't think you're off the "deep-end" with your feelings. When I was kid my grandfather used to sit around telling stories about how the world had changed since he was "my age." It's the classic story of how much harder everything was in the past. I'm sure Disney created the ride so that we...

Based on a great deal of past experience, bring your own. Get one of those little "banana" strollers" that fold up is light weight. They are easier to get around the park, easier getting to and from the bus, You don't have to worry about returning it. Just check it in when you board the...

Favorite Rides: Pirates of the Carribean: It's the first ride we always go on at the Magic Kingdom Tower of Terror: One of the best themed rides of all time. Splash Mountain: Everest Safari at AK Least Favorite Journey to Imagination. It makes me sad to think that this was the best Disney...

We saw Alan Thicke dining with us in the castle with his son. We also saw Barry Bonds and his family waiting to go in Mickey's Filharmagic (sp?) He was just as rude to his fans as I would have expected.

Grad night is when they open up the Magic Kingdom to graduates for free as a "reward" to students for graduating. I also hate grad night. Last year we stayed at the Polynesian and the band that was going to play on grad night rehearsed the night before...at around midnight. It literally...

I just finished shoveling too. If I had my choice, I'd be walking the World Showcase starting at Mexico, working all the way around to Canada, stopping to eat, drink, and shop. At 6:00 I'd have reservations for the Rose and Crown. Since I'm on the meal plan, I order an appetizer, the most...

Epcot's broken? I just got back home on January 2nd and my family and I spent an entire two days in EPCOT. Honestly, I saw none of the things mentioned in this post. Spaceship Earth was running fine, the new Nemo ride was great and after dinner at Rose & Crown, our waitress directed to a...

Is Aunt Polly's retaurant going to come back now that the River Boat is set to reopen? One of our favorite spots is sitting at Aunt Polly's, eating lunch and watching the River Boat, the parade, or listening to the Haunted Mansion.
