Please, explain to me how Frankenstein’s Castle is voted Salem’s Best Haunted House? What exactly were the criteria for elements of judging? Are there no other Haunted Houses within driving distance to choose from? Was judging completed by kindergartners? Was the judging based solely off of Frankenstein Haunted Houses? Maybe it was up against other Haunted Houses that have...

Our Family Visit to the Site of Old Burying Point Cemetery and Witches Memorial in Salem, Massachusetts
Catherine - 0
Neither Boston nor Salem, are lacking in the old cemeteries department. Both cities have numerous burial grounds for key players in the early colonial era and American revolution. The tombstones are thin, frail and lean with the wind, they are difficult to read and have unique puritan etchings on them. They are fascinating and remarkable and contain a sense...

Pop Century Hotel Stay: Our Family Trip to Walt Disney World at the Worst Hotel Disney Has to Offer, Orlando, Florida
Catherine - 2
We’ve stayed at every type of resort Disney has to offer. And while we’ve mostly enjoyed our stays, we can, and will, and want to, freely admit that some visits have been more magical than others. The value resorts at Walt Disney World are catered towards families on a budget, which is hilarious considering the nightly price tag, and...

It’s no secret we love Halloween. It was my Grandmother’s favorite holiday, and she passed on her love for it to me. Our family copied her idea for a black Halloween tree with eyeballs for ornaments, a papier-mâché undead bride sits on our mantle, we’ve already made festive cupcakes with blood spilling out of them, and we have spiderwebs completely...

Columbia Harbor House: A Family Restaurant Review at Walt Disney World, Magic Kingdom, Orlando, Florida
Catherine - 0
When it comes to Magic Kingdom dining, there isn’t a great selection anywhere. Be Our Guest is the only standout restaurant, and while Gaston’s Tavern used to be a solid second choice, they eliminated the pork shank there making it less than a snack stop. Your other choices boil down to a mexican salad bar, or pizza. For quick...

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...
