Disney Vacation Club – The Basics Part 1
Disney Vacation Club, or “DVC,” is a Disney-specific timeshare program that is often seen as an enigma. The points system, financing options, and the contract can all be very overwhelming and seem daunting in their own right, let alone combined. I hope, through this article, to be able to shed some light on something that I think can be a great investment — something I’ve invested in personally. Let me start by saying that I do not work for Disney or DVC and that I am not at all being paid for or given perks for writing this post. This is a safe space where you’ll get only my personal…

TWIDN: Feb 22nd-Feb 28th
Star Wars, Star Wars, and more Star Wars! LOTS of Star Wars news coming out of Disney this week! But also plenty of other exciting news! So let’s dive into ‘This Week in Disney New’! When you are done reading, leave a comment at the bottom and tell me what you think! 1. Height Requirement for Rise of the Resistance Ride in Star Wars – Galaxy’s Edge “Aren’t you a little short to be a Stormtrooper?” Well, small Galaxy Explores will not be able to ride this ride. The hight limit is 40 inches. The reason for this because this ride will feature rapid motion, sudden stops, sharp turns, and…

Becoming a Jedi While at Hollywood Studios in Disney World- Jedi Training Academy
Flying in the Millennium Falcon. Joining the Rebellion. Fighting Darth Vader. These are things that every Star Wars kid (or adult for that matter), dreams about doing one day! Fortunately for the kids, Disney can make their dreams come true! The Jedi Training Academy in Hollywood Studios is what dreams are literally made of! We experienced it for the first time last month, and now it is a ‘must-do’ for us every trip. 1. What is it? The Jedi Training Academy is exactly what it says in the name- its a class for kids age 4 to 12 years old who want to learn the ways of the Force. But…

Kim’s Top 5 – Magic Kingdom Edition
You’re not supposed to pick a favorite child, and it feels equally wrong to pick a favorite attraction, but this is a place where tough choices are made. Previously, I’ve ranked my top five attractions across ALL parks (which was torture), but I want to spend some time in each park, because there’s no reason to rush. Also, I’m not emotionally ready to re-evaluate my top five attractions across all four parks. It hurt….it really hurt. First stop on this journey — Magic Kingdom!

Rainy Day Epcot Activities
Rainy Day Epcot Activities: Rain during your Disney vacation can be a bummer but it can also be wonderful. I mentioned in a previous post that we traveled to Orlando for a race and it ended up being cold and rainy. We decided to take the kids to the park for the evening despite the weather and we had almost zero wait times!

Another Great Reason to Travel to Orlando
I love visiting Disney, I also love running. However, the combination of these two loves can admittedly cause some serious sticker shock. I have a happy solution for you that combines both Disney and running without breaking into the kids college funds.

Disneybounding for Beginners
Before the summer of 2016, “Disneybound” meant “going to Disney!” – wonderful in its own right, don’t get me wrong, but now, “Disneybound” means so. much. more. My adventure into Disney bounding all started with an innocent-enough venture into the Disney realms of Pinterest. (Ever want to lose a few hours in what feels like 5 minutes? Jump down that rabbit hole.) For a quicker introduction to Disneybounding, just keep reading. I’ll tell you everything you need to know to get started!

Dining Review: Tutto Italia Ristorante Dinner
Tutto Italia Ristorante: If you don’t know it already, you’ll quickly learn that I am all about the food when I visit Disney. I can be bribed to head on any ride, or venture off to any part of the park if there’s a promise of a snack at the end of the road. While I have my favorites down in Orlando, I also love trying new places. I’m hopeful that my experiences will help you choose where you’d like to grab a bite! This time, we head over to the Italy Pavilion in Epcot for a carb-filled dinner at Tutto Italia!
