Tips for Getting Extra Magic at Disney World
Is the Festival of Fantasy Parade Worth Your Time?
I love parades! There is just something about them. I have enjoyed watching them my whole life. I especially love the parades at Disney World.

The newest addition to the parade lineup at Disney ... VIEW POST

A Review of ESPN Club’s VIP Experience
When my wife planned our Disney trip last year for Thanksgiving, my immediate concern was how I was going to view my beloved TCU Horned Frogs in their rivalry game against Baylor. We've rarely missed a TCU game over the past decade due to living in Ft. Worth and having season tickets.
