Disney offers two themed water parks in Orlando, Florida. Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach. Typhoon Lagoon is the wreckage left as a result of a typhoon that swept through Florida dislodging and disarming boats, trees, slides, fishing gear, surfboards and the like leaving them where Mother Nature thought best. We’ll just save you the trouble and tell you right...
We celebrated our 11th Wedding Anniversary at Walt Disney World, and for our Anniversary Dinner we took the monorail to the luxurious Grand Floridian and indulged at Narcoossee's. This fine establishment requires a specific dress code and requires two Disney dining plan credits to cover the cost. It was well worth it.

The Boulangerie Patisserie at Epcot in the World Showcase is always a must stop visit when going to Walt Disney World. It is a delightfully sweet way to break up adventures, plus give in to your sweet tooth. The Patisserie is loaded with quiche, croissants, turnovers, cakes, cookies, pies, tarts, baguettes, macarons and more, and staffed with adorable garçons...
There is certainly no shortage of sugar filled creations to eat at Walt Disney World, or any Disney Theme Park for that matter. You can take the fast and easy route by choosing Mickey Ice Cream bars, or cotton candy, or you can step into one of Mickey’s Pâtisserie’s located around the Kingdom. We have three favorites: Les Halles...
Even the giraffes peeking through the floor to ceiling domed windows will be eyeing your food enviously at Sanaa, where Africa meets India to create lavish and aromatic dishes sure to please even the most tepid traveler.
Sanaa integrates all the flavors you’ll find at the Animal Kingdom into one. From the far Eastern borders of Mongolia in Asia,...
As a family who has taken annual vacations to Walt Disney World for the past decade, this weekend I actually asked myself: "Why go to Walt Disney World when I can just stay at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Hotel in Orlando, Florida?" The Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort is the vacation. It’s worth repeating: The Hyatt Regency Grand...
The Polynesian Resort at Walt Disney World is incredible, to say the least. One can only expect the same from any restaurant housed within the perimeter. The Kona Cafe is a simple restaurant, without much styling or motif, but the food is worthy enough to bring us back again and again. We’ve now dined at the Kona Cafe twice....
And I thought I loved Hyatt Place hotels! On our last trip to Orlando we switched up category hotels and opted for the Hyatt House instead of the Hyatt Place. In fact we booked the brand new Hyatt House Orlando Universal Studios located directly across the street from Universal Studios - and this just may be my new favorite...
Pandora is the newest addition to Disney’s Animal Kingdom located directly to the west of the entrance. This venture has been six years in the making, with construction ongoing for the past three years. Officially open to the public in May of this year, park goers are presented with a land wholly devoted to a movie that was released...
We were fortunate enough to snag a FastPass+ for one of the two new rides in Pandora - Land of Avatar at Disney World’s Animal Kingdom. Nav'i River Journey is a family boat ride that goes through the underground Na’vi passages and highlights a world rarely seen by outsiders. It’s a great ride for the whole family and an...
