Walt Disney World: It's Not Just for Kids

The Fountain is a, well, soda fountain at the Dolphin Hotel.  After going to Fantasia Gardens, we needed to grab a cab back to AKL.  However, owing to our last-minute change of plans, we had not gone to Goofy’s Candy Co as planned.  We had skipped dessert at Whispering Canyon because of this plan, so [...]

One thing that some people might not know is that Disney World has not one-but two mini golf courses:  Fantasia Gardens, by Epcot, and Winterland Summerland, by Blizzard Beach.  Personally, I’ve not seen the point in spending extra money on a WDW vacation on something that a) is not included in what I have already [...]

So, remember how I’ve been changing my August trip from AKL to POP? Shortly before I went away, I was able to confirm my dates. It did not look like there were any discounts for my dates, but I figured I’d deal with it once I got home. I did check out a DVC point [...]

I entered the Magic Kingdom without any difficulty at 4pm.  I quickly grabbed a MVMCP map, and planned my plan of attack.  I had the Touring Plan for MVMCP for adults committed to memory, but that sid not start until 7pm.  I decided to live a little and get pixie dusted at the Harmony Barber [...]

I woke up at 1:00pm.  Unless I wanted to head back out in the epic rain, I had to eat at Islands Dining Room.  My cheese was meh, service was slow, but it’s amazing how much can be fixed by offering me a to go cup of cokewithnoice please.  I wandered up to the lobby.  [...]

My alarm went off.  I dressed myself in my “Muggle” shirt.  I went down to the Orchid Court lounge and grabbed a cinnamon bun-it was good.  I headed onto the walk to Citywalk, which was empty as all get out.  I was meeting M at 7:15, so I waited in a chair at Margaritaville.  She [...]

My dinner decision was based in a very logical, responsible choice:  Bob Marley’s was celebrating Jamacian independence day.  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 [...]
