Disney's Boardwalk






Disney's Boardwalk is one of their Delux Resorts. It's pretty cool and is fun to walk along all the shops, but we probably wouldn't stay there. We ate lunch at the ESPN Club, which was really nice...they had a flat screen TV at every table/booth (too bad it was just ESPN on it). The food there was ginormous! I think it would be a really pretty place at night, but during the day it's pretty quite. It's a good place to relax, or perhaps just to visit while you are at Disney World.

Halloween Decorations in September




Well fall has arrived here at Disney World...the Magic Kingdom has already put up their Halloween decor. It's actually really cute and I can't wait to see more! Here's a little preview...more to come closer to Halloween!

We've added a poll area


We decided to add a poll area over on the right side of the page. We will try to change the question every few days, but it will always be centered around what you want to hear about. So please, take a few seconds and pick what you want to read about next. Thanks!

Please Don't...



Top 10 most annoying things you see tourists do at Disney World

10. Plow you over with a stroller (yes, it's happened to both of us on more than one occassion so far)
9. Wack you with their backpack...sometimes if the person is really tall, the backpack is at head level, which kinda hurts
8. Push their kids into the crowd/line so they can get closer
7. Let their kids run completely wild (sure it's Disney World, but you'd think they would teach their kids some manners)
6. Smoke in a non-smoking area...there are areas designated for smoking if only they would take a minute to ask where they are located
5. Dress in inappropriate clothes...it's the Magic Kingdom (a favorite among children) so why show more than you should. Here's a hint: if it could be mistaken for a bathing suit, you probably should pass on it (and yes, there are a lot of those)
4. All of a sudden stop in the middle of a moving crowd
3. Screaming (and I mean screaming) at their children...if there's a problem, I'm sure they could work it out in a much less attention-grabbing way
2. Throw their trash on the ground...seriously, is it that hard to put it in a trash can? They're everywhere!
1. Put their kids on a leash

Magic Kingdom






Tonight we went to the Magic Kingdom. It was still a little busy, but begining this week it will slow down a lot. This past week, the resort I'm working at was 75% occupied, but they said next week it drops down to 35%! So if you ever want to come to Disney I would suggest you come in September.

This evening we walked around the park, went on Splash Mountain, saw Mickey's Philarmagic, saw the stage show, and some other small stuff. It was nice to be able to relax im the park.

"Hollywood"





Dick Van Dyke, Roger Rabbit, Steve Martin, and Minnie Mouse

Saturday Night at the Studios





Tonight, after work, we went to Disney's Hollywood Studios (formally known as Disney's MGM Studios). First, we ate at one of our favorite places...Pizza Planet (from Toy Story). Then we walked off our supper around the park. We saw some famous foot prints in front of the Great Movie Ride and then went to a couple of attractions.

Pictured above is Brandon eating at Pizza Planet, a green alien from Pizza Planet, one of our favorite attractions, The Twilight Zone's Tower of Terror, taken tonight, as well as our photo from the ride a couple weeks ago.
