Has Disney’s Hollywood Studios Lost it’s Magic?
Let me start with saying – Disney’s Hollywood Studios has never been a “must” on our trips. Since it’s inception as MGM, it’s always been a pretty park, but has never had much drawing me to visit. We decided to stop in with hopes of riding Toy Story Midway Mania

Oldies But Goodies – Renew Your Childhood On The Carousel
O.K. Oldies, it’s time to recall something we all enjoyed as kids and something we can enjoy again as bigger kids. I’m talking about the Prince Charming Regal Carousel which I think should still be called Cinderella’s Golden Carousel but they didn’t ask my opinion or give me a vote.

Want to do Something New at Walt Disney World? Take a Tour!!
One of the more interesting things to do at Walt Disney World, are the various tours that Disney offers. We have been fortunate to do the Keys to the Kingdom tour at the Magic Kingdom, and the Behind the Seeds tour at the Land Pavilion in Epcot in years past, and were thrilled to have the chance to take the Undiscovered Future World tour at Epcot, on our recent trip…and at this point I will say that we are hooked on doing Disney tours: they are a fascinating way to learn about “the World”!
