Tusker House: Top 5 Reasons You Need to Eat Here
Disney World Tusker House: What do you do when one person in your party will eat anything and everything (spoiler – that’s me), and someone else in your party only eats maybe a handful of foods and refuses everything else (another spoiler – that’s my five-year-old son)? Going out to eat must be hard, right? Wrong! Not at Disney World, anyway. So many restaurants there cater to adventurous eaters and picky eaters alike. This blog post will be all about Tusker House over in the Animal Kingdom. I personally believe that it is hands down one of the best buffets on Walt Disney World property. From the food, to the atmosphere, to…

The Disney parks are an ever-changing landscape. Something seems to be different every time you visit.

Kim’s Top 5 WDW Attraction Queues
I hate to break it to you, but you’re going to wait in lines at Disney. Planning and strategic use of FastPasses can sometimes minimize those waits, but they’ll still exist. Disney knows its guests don’t want to wait, so it does its best to make the attraction queues as entertaining as possible; they become part of the attraction experience.

Kim’s Skip List: It’s Tough to be a Bug
Just because I love Disney, it doesn’t mean I love every attraction, show, or treat Disney has to offer. My skip list is about those park attractions I’d pass up. It’s not all negativity here, though — I offer up an alternative I’d much rather do instead! When it comes to It’s Tough to be a Bug, I’d rather do anything else. Anything. Including sitting and counting back from 7000 by 14s.
