I’m excited about this Kill, Refurb, Marry because I just came back from visiting Food and Wine for the first time! I didn’t get to try as much as I was hoping due to a couple of things, including getting sick during my trip and being mostly on my own for Food and Wine, so […]
Farewell, Maelstrom
As many of you Disney fans probably know, Maelstrom in Epcot’s Norway pavilion closed on Sunday, October 5th, 2014. I was in Epcot that day and was lucky enough to ride it one last time. The lines were crazy long all day. I had originally made a fastpass, but due to being sick in the […]
October 2014 monthly round up
Woohoo, October! You know what that means? It means I’m going to Disney World! When I come back I’ll have tons of stuff to blog about – the Halloween Party, Food and Wine, and Tower of Terror 10 miler. I’ll also be there for the last day Maelstrom is open. What are you most interested […]
Planning for the Food and Wine Festival
When you experience a great blog, it’s worth mentioning. So I have to give a shout out to one of the absolute best Disney resources I’ve ever found (if you’re into dining) – the Disney Food Blog! I’ll be experiencing the Food and Wine Festival for the first time soon, and this has been an invaluable […]
September 2014 monthly round up
Happy September! It’s one of my favorite months of the year. To start things off it’s my anniversary (we will be celebrating 3 years on the 3rd!), and it’s also one of my favorite times of year to visit Disney World. We went for our honeymoon and it was so empty we hardly had to […]
Bucket List: Drink around the World in Epcot
During our December Disney trip, we decided to tackle that often talked about bucket list item that’s popular with Disney adults – drinking around the “World” in Epcot. If you’re not familiar with the term, what it means is that you stop in every country in the World Showcase for a drink. There’s 11 countries, […]
Lesser Known Disney treats
Most Disney fans, even casual ones, know the big snacks they have to try while they’re there: Dole whip, Mickey bar, Mickey shaped pretzel, turkey leg, zebra domes and school bread from Norway, to name a few (and if you haven’t heard of those, that might need to be its own separate blog post!). In […]
Kill, Refurb, Marry – Air Conditioned Attractions
I don’t really keep tabs on which attractions are air conditioned and which are not… I’m going to assume for this that almost any indoor attraction is air conditioned. However, I decided not to count any of the super fast indoor rides (like Rockin’ Roller Coaster, Space Mountain, etc.). While those might be air conditioned […]
Kill, Refurb, Marry: Epcot Pre-shows
To be honest, I’m not really a huge fan of pre-shows. Because you know that you’re just about to get on the ride, and you’re eager and ready… and then you have to sit through one more thing. But if I had to choose to kill, refurb, or marry some, well, I guess I can […]
Kill, Refurb, Marry: World Showcase Counter Service Spots
One of the great things about Epcot is how many counter service spots it has to grab lunch or a quick dinner. Especially opposed to, say, Animal Kingdom or Hollywood Studios. But even then there are places around the World Showcase that could certainly be improved! Here are my thoughts on this month’s Kill, Refurb, […]
