Continuing my series of attraction comparisons…I decided to stick with the mountains, and compare the Splash Mountain attractions at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom (MK) and Disneyland (DL). Both are located in about the same area of the park – though at MK this area is in Frontierland, and at DL it’s in Critter Country. … Continue reading "Attraction Comparison: Splash Mountain"

Don’t ask me why this occurred to me in the shower the other day, but I started wondering about which Walt Disney World park Disney’s California Adventure most resembles, at least in terms of the attractions. With Animal Kingdom, it shares “It’s Tough to Be a Bug”. Walt Disney World Attraction Disney’s California Adventure Attraction … Continue reading "Disney’s California Adventure Attractions"
As many of you know, when considering a trip to Walt Disney World, the issue of whether to stay on-site or off-site can be rather hotly debated. At WDW staying on-site certainly has advantages with its access to Disney transportation, proximity to the parks, and the wide range of resorts (and room rates!) available. At … Continue reading "Disneyland: Staying On-site vs Off-site"
Happy Birthday, Disneyland!
Posted onToday is Disneyland’s 52nd birthday. I’d have to say that Walt’s Big Experiment looks pretty good 52 years later!

Coming up, Disney has … Continue reading "Happy Birthday, Disneyland!"

The Subs are Back!
Posted onWhew…the Finding Nemo event was a whirlwind – it’s hard to believe I was only away from home for a total of 30 hours – it sure seemed a lot longer than that! Opening Day yesterday (Monday) was quite an experience and I was excited to be part of it. Even first thing in the … Continue reading "The Subs are Back!"
Yosemite Yearnings

While I enjoy Disneyland and Walt Disney World it’s Yosemite that is my “Happiest Place on Earth”. 🙂 It was a great week for me – I wish I was going back a lot sooner than I am. But now to somehow tie that to … Continue reading "Yosemite Yearnings"
Mmm..I’d like a “Taste” of that!
Posted onOn Saturday night, Lee and I attended the “Taste” event, which is a new addition to Disney’s California Food and Wine Weekends this year. It’s very similar to Epcot’s Party for the Senses – except that Taste was better. If you’re not familiar with Party for the Senses or Taste – both are food and … Continue reading "Mmm..I’d like a “Taste” of that!"
