If you have a 6-14 year old who likes LEGOs, and will be in the Disney Springs (Downtown Disney) area during the first week of a month, you’re going to love this. The LEGO store has a free LEGO mini model build available each month. You have to sign up ahead of time, but since […]

When you reserve a Fastpass, you usually get a 1-hour window. I say usually, because for shows you don’t really have that window, since the show starts at a certain time and for many of them, you can’t get in after the show starts. But for regular rides, you have a 1-hour window. What happens […]

You can make 3 Fastpass+ ride reservations per day ahead of time. Once you finish using the 3 when you’re at the parks, then you can make more Fastpass+ reservations, one at a time at a kiosk in any park you’d like (even if it’s different from the park of the first 3 Fastpasses.) But […]

If you’re at Disney Springs (a.k.a. Downtown Disney) and want a little snack, don’t think you’ll have to spend any money. If you go to the Ghirardelli chocolate shop, and walk around the store, there is a very good chance you’ll get a free sample of chocolate. Now I make no guarantees, but almost every […]

The least expensive rooms on Disney property are the regular rooms at the Value resorts. But if you have 5 or more guests in your party, you won’t be able to to stay in just one. Don’t worry.  If you have 1 child that is under 3, they won’t count, and you can still stay […]

Every year, from the end of September to the middle of November, Epcot hosts the Food & Wine Festival. You’ll find over 30 different kiosks, each with a different type of food and drink. Some of the marketplaces include Africa, Brazil, Hops & Barley (with great lobster), New Zealand, and so many others. At each […]

Soarin’ is a ride at Epcot that will leave you feeling like you’ve just flown over California. Not only do you get the beautiful sights, including the Golden Gate Bridge, Napa Valley, Lake Tahoe, Palm Springs, and more, but you’ll even get the scents of California as well. How does the ride work? It’s a […]

The Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor in the Magic Kingdom is an interactive comedy show. Since the monsters talk to people in the audience, and get jokes from people in the audience, it’s a completely different show each time. It’s also a nice air conditioned seated area, so if you’re looking to laugh, you can go […]

Disney World, and Florida in general can get really hot. Combine that with long days, running around everywhere, and not enough sleep, and everyone can get tired and cranky. Unless you’re a little kid in a stroller, you can’t take a nap while at that parks unless you’re one of the hippos or other animals […]

Disney’s Hollywood Studios is fun, but if you’ve been walking around since morning, you might be exhausted by the middle of the day. While you can always go back to your hotel for a nap – that can take a lot of time out of your day. Why not look for a place you can […]
