Traveling to Disney: How Young is too Young?
It is a question that is being asked quite a bit across the Internet, in forums, blog sites, even on the Walt Disney World Mom’s Panel. How young is to young to take your child to Disney World? The answer to this question isn’t the same for everyone. For us,
Farewell, Mickey’s Toontown Fair
As of this Friday, February 11th, Mickey’s Toontown Fair will officially be closed for business. While Toontown originally opened as Mickey’s Birthdayland in 1988, celebrating the 60th birthday of our favorite mouse, it was renamed Mickey’s Starland first, then switched to Toontown as we know it in 1996.

Training for your Walt Disney Marathon – 5k Complete, Now What?

Disneyworld Hidden Gems- Epcot’s UK Pavilion, pt. 2
In this second part, we bridge the gap between the sheer historical monument of using preexisting buildings as the guide, and drawing inspiration from the typical architecture of the time period. In doing this, the atmosphere becomes much more casual and relaxed. That being said, it seems as though I’m

Affordable Disney Vacations: How Disney’s Magical Express Gets You Home Again
In my last article, I discussed using Disney’s Magical Express service to get you…and your luggage….from Orlando International airport to your Disney World resort hotel. This free transportation service is, in my opinion, one of the best perks of staying at on Disney property if you are flying. Convenient, hassle-free, and did I mention that it’s FREE? For anyone trying to plan an affordable Disney vacation, free is a great thing. So how does the service work in the opposite direction?
Oldies But Goodies – Moderate Resorts, A Very Viable Option For Us
Oldies seem to like Deluxe Resorts. From experience, it seems they lean towards the Magic Kingdom Resorts, not necessarily for access to the park itself but for the numerous transportation options, dining options, and overall ambiance of their particular favorite.
