I was very hesitant about attending. I pictured myself in a hazmat suit, running in for 30…

Written by our Kid Expert Marin Sinclair On June 13, I had the pleasure of going to the new Villains After Hours Event in Magic Kingdom. This event costs $139 per person, but is definitely worth it.

This spring, I did a VIP Tour Guide with a teenager. It was the BEST way to do the parks, hands down. So, this summer, we took that to the next level. Five teenagers, two adults, four parks, all thrill rides, six hours. We used the same tour guide, Buddy and it was AWESOME! Buddy…

I wish I could take credit for this but thanks to disneychef.com, we have a new project for the week, trying this out! For this version, she suggests using her handy, dandy Yonanas machine (which I have). For those who don’t have one, no fear… A good blender can do roughly the same thing with…

I thought I would start something different today. I’m going to post some Disney ride quizes to see just how much you know about Disney World. Some of the questions will be easy, but others will be challenging. Since some of the answers would be nearly impossible unless you had just gone on the rides, they…

A few weeks ago, we learned about a fun game at the Magic Kingdom. Every morning, cast members hide five paint brushes on Tom Sawyer Island. The lucky ones who find these brushes are rewarded with fast passes for the day for their entire family! Cool, I thought, as I started planning my ‘hunt’ around…

Disney hosted the D23 Expo (D for Disney and ‘23 for the year the Disney Company started) at the 800,000 square foot Anaheim Convention Center September 10-13.
