Shortly before the parks closed Disney had released a new collection of mugs (and other trinkets, but the focus was mostly on the mugs). It was the ABC collection, and there are 26 mugs – one for each letter of the alphabet. Actually, there are more than 26, because a few letters have different versions. […]
Why your family should visit Universal Orlando
One word: Butterbeer. Nah, there’s plenty more reasons! But Butterbeer (and all of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter) is certainly one of them. For a long time Universal sort of flew under the radar when compared to Disney World. You might venture over there for day to try out some other rides, but most […]
Disney mug of the month: Disneyland Paris 25th anniversary
The mug I’m drinking out of this month is actually my third mug from Disneyland Paris! When I went there in September 2016 I came back with two mugs myself: a general Disneyland Paris mug and a Ratatouille mug. Now I have this third one thanks to my good friends who were stationed over in […]
Disney mug of the month: WDW Marathon
I happen to have gotten a couple of new mugs recently, which means we are all set for our next couple of mug of the month posts! I’m starting to think I’ll never run out 😉 While my mug this month is new, it’s a little bit of a throwback to a past Disney event […]
Disney mug of the month: Candy Cauldron
This month’s mug is one that I’ve had for awhile, but it seems particularly appropriate for Halloween and the fall season. Anything that features a Disney villain is automatically a Halloween decor item to me, and this one has the Evil Queen in her old witch disguise over a bubbling cauldron. Of course she […]
Disney mug of the month: Finding Dory
The mug I’m drinking out of this month is a new one from my most recent trip to Disney and a gift from my Pixie Dust Pal! While walking around the parks I was checking out all the merchandise, and when I saw this Finding Dory mug I said, “If I was going to buy […]
Warner Brothers Studio tour
When we went to visit Disneyland, we actually decided to venture off of Disney property for some of the time we were visiting. There are so many things to do in the area! It was hard to narrow it down, but Jason and I thought it would be cool to do a studio tour. We […]
Other Theme Parks: Islands of Adventure
If you’re heading away from Disney World during your Orlando trip, a stop at Universal Studios should definitely be considered! I already discussed the Universal Studios section of the park, but they have a second park called Islands of Adventure that has a lot to offer. And if you’re a big Harry Potter fan it’s […]
Other theme parks: Universal Studios
This is a continuation of my series on other theme parks, for those times when you just can’t get to Disney but want to spend a day at a theme park, or you just want to try something different. Located not to far from Disney is Universal Studios, which is absolutely worth a visit these […]
