(updated 9/8/26): All about Animal Kingdom’s new land inspired by Tropical Americas – what to expect, when to expect it, and how it will affect the theme parks: We knew changes were on the horizon for Animal Kingdom’s Dinoland USA, and then we got confirmation at the 2024 D23 Expo, with the announcement of a […]
Zootopia 2: a worthy sequel
A look at my Zootopia 2 review: We are going to get sequels to Disney movies whether we like it or not. They have mostly done extremely well at the box office. While I could complain about too many sequels, I’m not going to bother here. And to be fair, Zootopia 2 is as worthy […]
Disney mug of the month: Good Vibes Only
At first glance, this might not seem like a Disney mug. It has a cool tie-dye pattern, and an inspirational sort of phrase (“Good Vibes Only”). Turn it around to the other side, though, and you’ll find it is definitely Disney – it’s Zootopia inspired! If you don’t remember all the details or the movie […]
Thoughts on Zootopia
This is part of my series “Thoughts on Disney movies,” where I’ve gone back to watch all of the animated Disney features, starting with Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs, and then share my thoughts on the blog. Today I take a look at Zootopia. Highlights: I think one of the best things about Zootopia […]
Disney news, rumors, and round up: March 2019
Somehow it’s already March – February seems to go so quickly! There are two big festivals starting in March – the Flower and Garden in Florida and the Food and Wine in California, so both coasts have something to look forward to.

Disney characters who made mistakes
We’re about to get really real on the blog today. This is probably one of the most honest posts I’ve written. Since I write about Disney it’s fairly easy to keep my personal life separate from the blog. Sure, I’ll talk a bit about my trips, and in my monthly goals I dive into […]
Disney running quotes
When it comes to running, most of the time I enjoy it. But there’s no doubt that running is challenging too. I love listening to music when I run because it keeps me going. Not just the beat, but often the words too. A nice, cheesy, inspirational quote might be just the thing I need. […]
Disney news, rumors, and round up: February 2017
Now that we are really getting into 2017, there are a lot of exciting things coming for Disney this year! Whether it’s in the theme parks (with the opening of Avatarland in Animal Kingdom and a number of new dining locations) or with the films (there’s already a ton of buzz for the live […]
Disney news, rumors, and round-up: August 2016
Phew – last month was full of news! And while we’ve still got some exciting things happening this month, it’s not quite as overwhelming. I also leave for Disney tomorrow myself! It’s my first time actually going in the middle of summer, so I’ll get to experience the crowds and the heat. I’m not exactly […]
Disney mug of the month: Zootopia!
I have a lot of coffee mugs. In fact, every time I see one that I like my husband gets this look on his face like “don’t you dare buy that.” And I always try to tell him, “But it’s so cute! Isn’t it?” And then he tells me we already have way too many […]
