As you’ve probably guessed by now…I love Epcot! It is my favorite park at the Walt Disney World Resort. I am also somewhat of a purist and dearly miss Disney’s extinct attractions. I have fond memories of visiting Epcot as a child and even in my earlier years, preferred it over the Magic Kingdom....
Have you ever heard of Walt Disney World’s Discovery Island? Not to be confused with the Discovery Island that is the central HUB of Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme park…formerly called Safari Village.

Even though I am an Annual Passholder, I will...

I wanted to share some older photos from the Walt Disney World Resort with all of you. I knew that our family had some photos taken at E.P.C.O.T. Center when I was a child, right around park opening, and I had my father email me some. I came upon this one…which I thought was...
Do you use FastPass when touring at the Walt Disney World Resort? I think that FastPass is the greatest thing since sliced bread. So fantastic, that it has completely revolutionized the way Disney Guests experience the parks. FastPass can be your best friend… or your worst enemy… and for newbies to the parks it...
Did you know that you can mail a letter from inside the theme parks at the Walt Disney World Resort? It’s true. The United States Postal Service has loaned several antique mailboxes to the Disney Resort. If you look hard enough, you might just be able to spot one on your next trip to...
The Disney brand is world famous for merchandising…and the holidays are no exception.
