WDW Not Just For Kids Review: London Disney Store
July 1st, 2011 · 2 Comments
This post is part of the 25th Dismarks Carnival. Before I begin this review, I should make it quite clear that I loved London. UK readers, I love your country with its two Cadbury flake bars for 80p. I loved the history. I loved the fizzy lemonade. I love that your country can make a [...]

Legoland Florida-I think it looks meh for adults…
May 25th, 2011 · 1 Comment
How ’bout you? Legoland Florida will be opening on October 15 where Cypress Gardens used to be in Winterland, FL. I was kind of curious to see it, as I had seen people citing Knight’s Tournament in Legoland California pre-Wizarding World of Harry Potter. However, it looks pretty meh. To be honest, I’m not a [...]

It was ok. There were definitely some funny parts (and some adult-fan extras I’ll get to), but I’d say it’s RedBox-worthy.

In my handy Citywalk party pass brochure, it indicated that this included $4 Bacardi drinks. I boarded the Water taxi. There was kind of a wait-your on-site hotel key pushes you up in line. I headed over [...]

There’s an (Android) App for that: Ridehopper
September 16th, 2010 · No Comments
I have to begin by admitting that I know this review is going to have a flaw: Ridehopper is the only theme park app I’ve ever tried, so I really don’t have anything to compare it to, you know? That said, I was pretty meh on Ridehopper. I paid the $.99 to upgrade it to [...]
