Walt Disney World: It's Not Just for Kids

In my list of ways to pass the time until my cruise (OMG-one week from today I will be one month out!), I decided to try Disney Cruiseline’s online check-in.  I tried online check in for my Disney resort stay last year, and found it to be pretty useful (Amanda has a much better description [...]

One more “unique” part of the Disney fan community subculture is the phenomena of decorating your stateroom door.  I knew I wanted to get in on the action, but I’m not terribly artistic.  Here’s how I made mine, your mileage may vary.

I love Food Network almost as much as I love Disney, so I was thrilled when I found out that a new Unwrapped on the Disney Resorts was going to airing.  I watched it the other day.  While I think a lot of the special came from the old Unwrapped special, I still liked it [...]

So, my Disney Cruise in December stops at two ports, Nassau, and Castaway Cay (Disney’s private island).  The only other time I’ve been to the Bahamas was on a Royal Caribbean Cruise when I was 10.  I didn’t remember much of Nassau-we know we did the straw market, walked around and saw some buildings, and [...]
