I didn't take a picture this time (This pic is an oldie but goodie), but we hit the slopes at Blizzard Beach, one of Disney's water parks on our last trip. It was a ton of fun even if it was somehow the day I took the most steps of any day. How does that happen when I bob around in a wave pool for an hour and float a few laps around the lazy river?!?! lol Anyway, we weren't brave enough for Summit Plummet, but we sure did enjoy all the other slides.

What about you? Are you brave enough for what was once the world's tallest and fastest water slide? Are you Team Typhoon or Team Blizzard? Either way, I totally recommend making sure you have enough time in your Walt Disney World vacation for a trip to either of their awesome water parks.

It happens every time. It truly is a magical place!

The Boo Bash was awesome! It turned out to be my wife and daughter's only time in the Magic Kingdom and they almost got to do everything we would have if they had a full day. Plus, we got free candy and Mickey bars and drinks!! We walked right on to Mad Tea Party, Pooh, Small World, and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, 3 times! I know it's costly, but if you visit Walt Disney World at any time there is an after hours event scheduled, I would take advantage of it. We thought it was worth it.

I had heard great things about Whispering Canyon Café at Wilderness Lodge before, so we decided to check it out. And it was a blast! The name is quite ironic because the atmosphere is rather loud to say the least. Between our waiter calling out Taylor for being on her phone during the meal and asking the dining room to boo her, to getting everyone's attention to reward CJ with her FastPass to the bathroom because she finished her giant refill, it was such a fun night. The ribs and pulled pork and everything else was finger-lickin' good too. This might have to become a tradition!

We did our first split-stay, that's where you divide your Disney World stay between two resorts. We stayed a few nights at the Polynesian and then moved over to All-Star Movies for a night. The Polynesian was a bucket-list stay and it lived up to the hype. It was gorgeous! And we had never been to any of the All-Stars before; it was cute too. We were in the Mighty Ducks section. Quack! Quack! Quack! Ha ha

Anyway, after our experience, I would totally recommend a split-stay. We did have to pack twice and lug our suitcases to & from our rooms an extra time. But the Bell Services at the resort make it very convenient. We dropped our suitcases off in the morning, went to the park all day long, and then went "home" to our new hotel at the end of the day and our bags were there waiting for us. Pretty seamless and a fun way to get to experience two different hotels. There are over 20 of them on Disney property after all!

Has anyone else ever done a split-stay? Where are your favorite places you've stayed before?

We decided to join the trend of family Disney shirts during our last trip. I always thought it was kinda corny, (and trust me, there are plenty of generic cheesy ones out there) but we thought we would give it a try if we could come up with a clever, original idea. So we did, and we were really glad we did. It was pretty fun and we got so many comments throughout the day. I want to thank Savanna at WaltsFavorite for helping make this project a reality. Has anyone else done matching shirts? Share your family's pic.

Have you ever taken a moment to stop & look at the . . . Pascals? 🤪 Yes, Pascal the chameleon from Tangled is hiding all around the area leaving Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom before you get to Liberty Square. I'm not sure exactly how many of him there are, but we found 5. Felt pretty good about finding those. Anyone find more than that?

We are currently at The Most Magical Place On Earth - Walt Disney World! Does anyone have any questions for us while we're here we could answer? Anything you want us to find out for you? Do you need a picture of anything? And most importantly, do we need to eat anything for you so we can give you our review? I mean, I'm willing to sacrifice for my friends! ;-)

What movies are on the essential viewing (re-viewing) list as preparation for a trip to Walt Disney World?

Maybe next year I'll get my "Wish" and get to sail on Disney Cruise Line's newest ship - The Wish! It looks gorgeous and a lot of fun too. If you'd like to join me, send me a line and we can get excited to go cruising together.

I'm so happy for those California residents that can return to the Happiest Place on Earth and for all the cast members that get to go back to work too.
