I grew up not being a nature kind of gal, wasn’t raised around it so never cared much for it. Again, here comes another instance where my boyfriend opened me up to something new, camping. From the little that I knew, camping had to do with tents set up in the wilderness. No real opinion on it. We absolutely love doing family activities whether it be with just us or…
Day 04 & 06 At Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom Walt Disney…I think despite everything Walt had imagined, hoped and ambitiously conceptualized, I don’t think he would have imagined how iconic one (1) single theme park could have become. The opening of every Disney movie- [the castle at] Magic Kingdom. Through every tour, we were told that Epcot was Walt’s baby. Magic Kingdom comes with a higher factor for branding.…
Day 04 At Epcot (again) Epcot had so much to do for all ages that we had to make it a two (2) day visit. On our first day we focused mainly in Sea exploring all its’ attractions since it was really the only area our two year old could do everything. On our second day we focused on meeting all the characters, tasting our way through the countries and…
Day 03 At Animal Kingdom When you come from New York City, the city that has a zoo in all five borough how can you really get excited for yet another zoo? You see one lion; you’ve seen them all. Am I right? WRONG! You can’t see a lion while riding along a safari ride experience with rhinos, cheetahs and giraffes! I don’t think the city would give out permits…
Day 02 At Typhoon Lagoon & Epcot When we woke up on Day 02 we were anxious to actually swim. We’re in Disney and we just want to swim? I guess with the long winter we had in NYC, we went crazy. We left NYC when it was in the 40’s; When we landed in Orlando it was in the high 80’s. You can imagine our pain. Unfortunately when we…
Day 01 At Hollywood Studios When we arrived at Disney we had a plan and we stuck to it and Day 01 landed us at Hollywood Studio. Disney’s park based on movies and television. The park isn’t overly large and confusing. You could honestly approach this park and cover everything in one day, especially if you plan it correctly. We lucked out when we arrived at the park early. We…
Our Disney Family Vacation has come to an end and if you kept up with my daily vlogs you had a front row seat to watch our Disney Side and join in on all our adventures. While I don’t intend for this to be a boastful post, I surprisingly got a lot of people asking me how much did we spend for our entire vacation. In this post I’ll disclose…
Manage the Experience From Your Hip I was very skeptical when I was told about the Disney Experience App app in the app store. Most destination apps are simple maps with entertainment times and that’s it. They never seem to sum up what an app can really do for a visitor. Phones and apps were created for convenience and mobility. When we thought about convenience we IMMEDIATELY thought about managing…
Pack the Car, WE’RE GOING TO DISNEY! Where does one start when it comes to getting your family from your house to Disney World? You’re either driving or flying. So when you’re sitting down to figure out the travel aspect there’s really only two (2) angles to work here. How many people will you be traveling with and how far are you from Orlando, FL? These two points could be…
So you think you’ve decided where you’re going to stay and what you’re going to do? Than let’s reserve your vacation! Is it really that easy? I don’t have the thousands of dollars yet! It’s ok. You don’t have to pay for your entire vacation up front when you plan directly through Disney. We simply put down a $200 deposit months before we’re going just to insure our desired dates.…
What do you know about Disney? More importantly, what DON’T you know? There’s more to Disney than meets the eye. And it’s constantly changing. Whether it be the prices, the rides or the shows. Disney doesn’t replay the same year twice. Every year it creates new experiences you never forget. All while putting together our vacation I stumbled across some INCREDIBLE resources that for me did more in explaining than…
