Walt Disney World: It's Not Just for Kids

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 [...]

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 [...]

I have discussed my issues with the Disney Store before here.  However, given that DisneyStore.com seems to have gotten a clue, I was hopeful that the Disney Store outlet in Riverhead, NY would have something.  Their outlet was a fail-one thing of t-shirts, one rack of pajama pants, and some discounted Pook-A-looz merchandise.  Oh, and [...]
